Fox News agreed to pay a $12 million settlement to former Tucker Carlson producer Abby Grossberg.
Abby Grossberg filed lawsuits against the outlet in March after she left the company.
Grossberg filed a lawsuit alleging the company’s legal team urged her to answer “I don’t know” to questions in the company’s lawsuit with Dominion voting machines.
Tucker Carlson was fired from Fox News shortly after Grossberg filed her lawsuits.
Grossberg’s lawsuit was originally filed in the Delaware Superior Court where the Dominion case was settled for $787 million.
The New York Times reported:
Fox News has agreed to pay $12 million to Abby Grossberg, a former Fox News producer who had accused the network of operating a hostile and discriminatory workplace and of coercing her into providing false testimony in a deposition.
Parisis G. Filippatos, a lawyer for Ms. Grossberg, said that the settlement concluded all of Ms. Grossberg’s claims against Fox and the people she had named in her complaints, which included the former host Tucker Carlson and some of his producers.
Ms. Grossberg’s legal team filed a request in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on Friday to dismiss a remaining lawsuit against Fox in light of the settlement.
Ms. Grossberg said in a statement on Friday that she stood by her allegations, but she was “heartened that Fox News has taken me and my legal claims seriously.”
“I am hopeful, based on our discussions with Fox News today, that this resolution represents a positive step by the network regarding its treatment of women and minorities in the workplace,” she said.
The Murdochs cave as much as the Republican establishment. I guess that isn't surprising.
Hi! Has everyone donated to the Freepathon yet?
Maybe the many lawsuits will sink fox news....just maybe.
They probably wanted to avoid the discovery that a trial would entail.
Captain Picard: "Make it so, number one."
Oddly Fox News present political philosophy has created an opening for a new network that would be like the original Fox News before the Murdock Boys assumed control and ruined Fox News.

Wow, that was quick. Maybe I’ll sue Fox News. They seem to not fight anything just pay out.
I have a feeling that Tucker will eventually put together a new streaming service, perhaps initially based on Twitter.
Did you find the Twitter link or URL for The Duran shorts?
And then what? Be careful what you wish for.......
And what a wonderful world it would be if everyone thought like you.

Throws me to a login screen, though.
But I haven't had a Twitter account for several years, since the old Twitter regime got me last time.
No. I didn’t know the Duran was doing shorts. Good to know they are.
It was at the end of Alex’s update today.
Fox must have money to burn and is managed by geldings.
Money for nothing! Fox caves in on every BS female harassment suit. This has been going on for five years.
Can you belive this shit! She gets 12 million and no one even touched her. It’s a scam. They (females) want to be “harassed” so that they can sue the idiots at Fox. They beg for harassment and will keep notes on everything. Every ex-frat boy that talks to her sideways. Or brushes up against her at a party.
I’ll check it out.
And then we destroy the next woke company. The price of freedom is eternal vigilence.
YES we did!!
This is too complicated and deeply embedded inside baseball stuff going on here...
Can someone clue me in?!
