Kevin O'Leary and Fox News sued over claims that data center critics had China ties

Kevin O'Leary and Fox News sued over claims that data center critics had China ties

Kevin O'Leary went on several news programs, including Fox News, and accused some critics of his Stratos data center project of being foreign agents.

Back in May, "Shark Tank" star Kevin O'Leary made a series of media appearances accusing some vocal opponents of his data center plans in Box Elder County, Utah, of being foreign-backed agents.

Now, Mr. Wonderful is being sued for defamation.

"Recently I appeared on various news programs and would like to clarify that I have no evidence that Alliance for a Better Utah, Elevate Strategies, Gabrielle Finlayson, Taylor Knuth or Josh Kanter are funded by China or the Chinese Communist Party," [OLeary] wrote in an Instagram post from June 25.
