Kevin O'Leary and Fox News are facing a defamation lawsuit from two Utah-based political organizations, Alliance for a Better Utah and Elevate Strategies, along with their founders. The suit alleges that O'Leary falsely accused the organizations of being funded by and acting on behalf of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to oppose his proposed data center project in Utah. The plaintiffs claim these accusations have caused significant reputational damage, economic losses, and emotional distress. While O'Leary later issued a clarification on Instagram stating he had no evidence of CCP funding, the plaintiffs argue this was only after a legal demand and insufficient to repair the harm caused.
