This settlement with Miss Grossberg is the latest development in a long line of legal battles that Fox has faced. In April, the company announced that it would pay Dominion Voting Systems $787.5 million, the largest amount ever paid to settle a defamation case. Fox also took its most popular host, Mr. Carlson, off the air after its executives deemed him more trouble than good for the company. 💸📺
Fox still has another defamation case to fight, this time with another voting technology company called Smartmatic. They allege that Fox spread lies about their products, claiming that they aided in election fraud in 2020. 🗳️🤥
As for Miss Grossberg, who is 42 years old, her case has something to do with the Dominion case. In March, she sued Fox in Delaware, alleging that they forced her to lie in the deposition she gave. She then changed her witness testimony before the Dominion trial, posing another challenge for Fox’s legal team. 🤐📝
She also filed another lawsuit in New York, this time asserting that Fox and Mr. Carlson allowed a culture of sexism and anti-Semitism to persist. She claims they harassed her and made derogatory remarks while she worked as the head of booking on “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” 👩⚖️🔒
Fox fired Miss Grossberg just four days after she filed the lawsuits. They stated in a release that she had disclosed confidential information about the Dominion case. She dropped the lawsuit in Delaware, but her lawyer says they will file another one in New York. 🔥🚫
Miss Grossberg began working at Fox News in 2019 as a senior producer for Maria Bartiromo. Then in August 2022, she joined Mr. Carlson’s team as the head of booking. 👩💼📺
In her lawsuit, Miss Grossberg claimed that she found a workplace full of misogyny and harassment. The male producers openly displayed sexism towards her and her co-workers, made crude jokes, and even put up pictures of Nancy Pelosi, the House speaker, in a swimsuit showing cleavage. 😠👙🖕
Miss Grossberg never met Mr. Carlson in person, as he mostly works from his homes in Florida and Maine. However, they communicated extensively through email, text, and video calls. Mr. Carlson’s staff in New York was led by Mr. Wells, the senior executive producer (who was fired by Fox in April). 📧🗽📞
After Miss Grossberg filed her lawsuits, she slowly leaked audio recordings from her time at Fox to other media organizations. The recordings revealed various revelations, such as Mr. Carlson’s significant influence in the Republican Party, Rudolph W. Giuliani, former President Donald J. Trump’s lawyer, admitting he had no evidence of voter fraud, and even discussions between Senator Ted Cruz of Texas and Miss Bartiromo about his attempts to audit the 2020 election results. 🎙️🎧📢
Mr. Filippatos, Miss Grossberg’s lawyer, confirmed that the special counsel’s office investigating Mr. Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election had contacted him. He and his client are cooperating. They have found at least 90 tapes, and Miss Grossberg’s legal team is going through all her devices, searching for any additional recordings. 🧑⚖️🔍📼
