NEW YORK (AP) — A Fox News executive said Saturday the network did not pay Kyle Rittenhouse's family for any special access during Rittenhouse's murder trial or after his acquittal, after it was announced that he would speak to Tucker Carlson for an interview to air on Monday.
The comment came after Rittenhouse's trial attorney, Mark Richards, said that a Fox documentary crew was embedded with Rittenhouse's team against his wishes. Richards told The Associated Press on Saturday that he didn't think the filming was appropriate and that he had tossed the crew out of meetings several times.
“It was not approved by me, but I'm not always in control,” he told the AP. “I think it detracted from what we were trying to do, and that was obviously to get Kyle found not guilty.”
Richards, to the AP and in similar remarks to CNN on Friday night, said it was arranged by those who were raising money for Rittenhouse, though he did not say that Fox paid Rittenhouse.
David Hancock, a spokesman for the Rittenhouse family, said any potential payment by Fox “was never offered and it was never asked for and it was never discussed.”
The intention of the documentary, which is to be shown next month on the Fox Nation streaming service, is to memorialize the experience that Rittenhouse had during the trial and to show people who he really is, he said.

Not sure I trust Fox, but we’ll see.
What is going to be the MSM-Democrat’s complaint when Kyle Rittenhouse makes money off his fame?
FNC & FBN did not have to pay one cent for the simple reason that when the kid appears for his interview with Tucker Carlson, 6,000,000-10,000,000 folks will be tuned in to the Tucker show!!! Over at CNN, MSNBC, 238-436, people will be watching the failing, TV Low Life, Goons!!
Kyle isn’t even supposed to be allowed to smile after a overly long year of misery. I would also smile in relief.
Never trust any big media company, including NewsMax. There is plenty of cronyism to go around.
I’d be like..yeah baby!
Fox has been pretty dam# accurate in their reporting from the start. No reason for me to believe they won’t exhibit the same candor with this.
I dont like Tucker either but Im sure the leftard MSM outlets like CNN are butt-hurt they didnt have a chance to destroy, erm I mean “interview” Kyle on camera.
Wrong post
So what if they did.?
AP = America’s Pravda
OMG he’s crossing multiple state lines at the same tine!
"Cross them all" makes sense now.
I don’t know, Kyle just doesn’t look right without that certain prop . . . what is it now? It seems like it had a strap attached. I mean, can’t rightly remember, but he sure do look nekkid without it.
You never know when someone might run up to him with a skateboard in his hands.
If I was Kyle, I would just lay low for a while.
I really don’t like that lawyer
