Fox News executives reportedly possess a dossier of ‘damaging’ information on Tucker Carlson, which they are prepared to use should he speak against the network following his departure.
Sources suggest that the file contains internal complaints about workplace conduct, disparaging comments about management and colleagues, and allegations of creating a ‘toxic’ work environment. While a network spokesperson denies the existence of the file, many within the network disagree, citing Fox PR’s tactics to silence Tucker.
Rolling Stone reported:
Fox News executives have in their possession a dossier of alleged dirt on Tucker Carlson should he attack the network in the wake of his departure, eight sources at and close to the network tell Rolling Stone.
When Fox announced Carlson’s departure on Monday, the network presented the separation as amiable. But according to one former on-air Fox personality, the anchor and some of the channel’s top executives are parting ways on “the worst” and “messiest possible terms.” Indeed, in private communications released last month as part of the Dominion-Fox lawsuit, the now-fired Fox host gossiped that one such exec “hates us,” claiming she was covertly working against him and other hosts.
But if Carlson attempts to torch the network he’s leaving, Fox is prepared, the sources say.
Eight people familiar with the situation tell Rolling Stone that Fox News and its communications department — long led by the notoriously aggressive Irena Briganti — has assembled damaging information about Carlson. One source with knowledge calls it an “oppo file.” Two sources add that Fox is prepared to disclose some of its contents if execs suspect that Carlson is coming after the network.

Oh to bad for fox tucker has not signed the NDA yet! With the non compete clause
After 4 years out of the closet, this communist-supporting extension of Izvestia continues to flaunt its love of tyranny...
wth is all this nonsense?
Burn fox ratings to the ground.
I won’t watch them anymore.
They hold a “dirt” file on our favorite show to silence him after firing?
Screw Fox.
I am sure whatever they have is less important than how hard they push it and how hard they spin it. I don’t think actual facts matter any more. News has stopped being factual. Its rhetoric and propaganda. Logic, proof, debate have disappeared. If they have something, its a story and a strategy.
But I wonder if Carlson wants to fight. I doubt it. His life has turned upside down. And I am guessing his family is done with hiding and arguing and want to live a semi-normal life again. They have the money they need. But its hard for them to go out in polite society anymore. There are too many freaks. And what is polite society anyway.
Geez, the Moloch family gets a little touchy. Tucker hasn’t said a word. Being a true journalist has a broad protection to check up on government and public officials. Most people in “stardom” tend to be toxic. Get over it, Lachlan Moloch.
Wow, now it’s “eight people familiar with the situation.” Usually it’s only one or two.
Gosh, then it must really be true. Tucker better keep his mouth shut.
My retort if I was Carlson would be.
“If I was so terrible then why’d you employ me so long?”
If they have a dossier of bad behavior, they should release it immediately no matter what Tucker does.
Otherwise, this is a crime known as blackmail.
Eight people, with insider knowledge about Fox News, have talked to ultra-Leftist Rolling Stone, about a secret file on Conservative TV host Tucker Carlson?
Sorry.
That is not credible.
The woman claiming sexual harassment is in NYC. TC worked out of FL and Maine, and supposedly had never met her. The whole thing stinks to high heaven.
I’m laughing at this nonsense.
Carlson doesn’t seem the type to me, but you never know.
Most men, if they had an opportunity and could be unfaithful without anybody ever finding out, would be unfaithful at least once in their lives.
The Grossman lawsuit does not accuse Tucker Carlson of doing anything sexual.
The lawsuit claims that Tucker inspired and tolerated a "sexist" work environment.
Fox News has publicly stated that the lawsuit lacks merit and that many of the accusations are provably false.
What a miserable looking thing. https://duckduckgo.com/?q=abby+Grossberg&iax=images&ia=images
So, now we are taking the word of Vanity Fair, MSDNC, and Rolling Stone
My, how the media has fallen
I don’t think there’s anything they have that could silence Tucker. Everything mentioned just sounds like routine workplace mud and gossip. Tucker’s audience will just shrug and keep listening to Tucker if they heard any of that stuff.
>> a bit of sexual harasser
That’s a pretty low bar to clear in this day and age.
“Thoughtcrime” is all it takes.
Or telling a blonde joke.
Reason 23 Tucker was fired.... This will be my last “Reason #” Tucker was fired reply. Hard to keep up with the conspiracy and speculation reasons. I’ll wait till Tucker explains it. That would be the only correct version.
He doesn’t need to “attack” Fox news. Fox news’ wounds are all self-inflicted. Let’s see where their ratings go from here. They’ve already lost a couple million viewers since Nov. 2020.
They don’t need to actually have dirt, they just need to claim that they do.
See how easy?
