The Streaming Show That Showed It All
The images were used in ‘The Trial of Hunter Biden.’ The show reportedly debuted on the streaming service Fox Nation in 2022. The series features a “mock trial” of Hunter Bideon on charges he has not faced, and it included photos of Biden in the nude and engaged in sex acts, according to the lawsuit. Additionally, the lawsuit claims the dissemination of intimate images without Biden’s consent violated New York’s revenge porn law. Furthermore, the lawsuit seeks compensatory and punitive damages and an order directing Fox to remove any copies of explicate images.
“Fox published and disseminated these Intimate Images to its vast audience of millions as part of an entertainment program in order to humiliate, harass, annoy and alarm Mr. Biden and to tarnish his reputation,” according to the lawsuit.
A Fox News spokesperson called it an “entirely politically motivated lawsuit” that was “devoid of merit” in an emailed statement. The statement noted that attorneys for Biden sent them a letter demanding its removal from streaming platforms in April 2024. “The program was removed within days of the letter, in an abundance of caution, but Hunter Biden is a public figure who has been the subject of multiple investigations and is now a convicted felon. Consistent with the First Amendment, Fox News has accurately covered the newsworthy events of Mr. Biden’s own making, and we look forward to vindication our rights in court,” according to the emailed statement. However, the lawsuit claims that Fox has not entirely removed promotional materials for the series. Furthermore, the program is still available on some third-party streaming platforms.

The mock trial in the series involved charges of bribery and improper financial dealings with foreign governments. However, Hunter was never charged with these crimes.
