‘More legal trouble for Fox News’: Details of explosive new revelations rock the network

A producer at Fox News has come out with explosive allegations against the network, including that she witnessed a parade of anti-Semitic and sexist behavior from network bigwigs behind the scenes — but perhaps most important, she has upended Fox’s defense in the $1.6 billion lawsuit against them by Dominion Voting Systems for spreading election lies, claiming that network lawyers pushed her into giving false testimony in a deposition.

CNN’s media reporter Oliver Darcy broke down the significance of the new development with anchor Kaitlan Collins on Tuesday.

“Abby Grossberg is accusing the network’s legal team of intimidation while they prepared her for a deposition,” said Collins. “What is she alleging? She is saying when she was talking to these attorneys before she went in for the deposition, that they — she alleges manipulated her into giving testimony that wasn’t accurate.”

“Essentially,” said Darcy. “This is more legal trouble for Fox News. This producer is saying she was basically bullied and intimidated and coerced into giving misleading testimony … it says Fox News attorneys ‘acted as agents and the behest of Fox News to misleadingly coach, manipulate, and coerce Ms. Grossberg to deliver shaded and/or incomplete answers during her sworn deposition testimony, which answers were clearly to her reputational detriment but greatly benefitted Fox News.”

This new legal action against Fox, noted Darcy, “comes at a critical time in the case.”

“Fox News is set to duke it out in court with Dominion in a key hearing later today,” said Darcy. “The news she potentially was, you know, coerced into giving misleading testimony during a sworn deposition is, obviously, a pretty explosive allegation.”

Latest GOP town hall devolves into ‘shouts, groans and mockery’ as voters flout ‘rules’



Self-described moderate Republican Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) had his hands full during a Sunday night town hall in his suburban Hudson Valley swing district, according to reporting inThe New York Times and a variety of videos posted to social media.

Local police expected more than 1,200 constituents to jam the high school auditorium where Lawler was speaking in Rockland County, but first they had to follow Lawler's rules as posted outside the venue: participants were required to provide proof of residency for New York's 17th district; were warned against shouting, screaming, or yelling; and were forbidden from making "audio or video recordings."

But the rowdy constituents ignored those last two directives, as evidenced by cell phone video posted to X.

In one video, a constituent asked, "What are you doing to stand in opposition to this administration, and what specifically are you doing that warrants the label 'moderate'"?

The question drew whoops and applause from the audience. When Lawler began to answer, saying, "Again, my record speaks for itself. I've been rated the fourth most bipartisan for a reason," the audience laughed and groaned.

In another clip, constituents chanted, "blah, blah, blah" as Lawler tried to justify President Donald Trump's tariffs that have caused the upending of the stock markets.

The article described "shouts, groans and mockery."

Times reporter Nicholas Fandos wrote that, "The congressman got a rare round of applause when he defended the use of vaccines and criticized Mr. Trump’s health secretary, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has cast doubt on the efficacy of vaccination."

But overall, the town hall was both "combative and catty" and looked less like "the kind of respectful town-hall conversation Americans venerate than a shouting match where both sides accuse the other of acting in bad faith," Fandos wrote.

He added that, "For much of the night, acrimony carried the room. Attendees provoked confrontations with fellow attendees, with Mr. Lawler’s staff members and with the police. No one was satisfied, including supporters of the congressman who mostly watched in silence."
