Fox News Tries to Silence a Top Producer Threatening to Reveal Internal Convos

The network is taking a key producer for Tucker and Bartiromo to stop her from disclosing privileged internal chatter as part of her own threats to sue for discrimination.

Fox News is now taking legal action against one of its top producers in an effort to silence her amid the ongoing Dominion lawsuit.

In a Monday complaint filed in the Supreme Court of New York, Fox News alleged that Abby Grossberg, a senior booking producer for Tucker Carlson, has threatened the network with a discrimination lawsuit and, in doing so, has threatened to publicly disclose privileged conversations she had with Fox News lawyers in advance of her own September 2022 deposition in the Dominion defamation case.

Grossberg’s threats, the network wrote, have forced Fox to seek a court order silencing her.

The top producer worked on Maria Bartiromo’s weekend show during the 2020 election and was among those who received the “wackadoodle” memo from “Kraken” lawyer Sidney Powell, written by a self-described “ghost” woman, that served as the basis for some of the baseless election-fraud claims Fox News aired.

Wonder what those lawyers advised her and other Fox employees.

I bet Dominion would like to know, as well.
