Fox hacked Andrea Tantaros phone and used her dead brother in campaign of psychological torture: la

"SNIP...........


Tantaros also received social media harassment about her dead brother. In one case, she was speaking to her dead brother’s children at Disneyland when she was sent a photo on Twitter of Mickey Mouse hugging two children. The caption read: “Mickey Mouse and ‘new friends’.”

Tantaros’s attorney, Judd Burstein, told NPR that the campaign was “not just cyberstalking.”

“This is cyberstalking on steroids, because, as alleged in the complaint, they harassed her through sock-puppet social media accounts which conveyed the illegal fruits of their electronic surveillance of her,” Burstein said. “It was in essence two crimes committed at the same time.”

FOX News outside counsel Dechert, LLP provided Raw Story with the following statement: “Fox News and its executives flatly deny that they conducted any electronic surveillance of Ms. Tantaros. They have no knowledge of the anonymous or pseudonymous tweets described in her complaint. This lawsuit is a flimsy pretext to keep Ms. Tantaros and her sexual harassment claims in the public eye after the State Supreme Court directed her to bring them in arbitration.”

Mean people. I remember her mocking Obama's profound sorrow over Sandy Hook.

ETA Cyberstalking is not cool, and anything involving children is appalling. Hence, my horror at her mocking Obama over SH.
