Ex-Producer Suing Tucker Carlson Never Actually Met Him

If you’re keeping up with the buzz surrounding Tucker Carlson’s departure from Fox News, you may come across the name Abby Grossberg. Grossberg was fired from Fox News in March and is currently suing the network and Carlson for allegedly fostering a hostile work environment. As is the norm, anyone who claims to have dirt on Fox News is given instant celebrity status, so naturally, Grossberg appeared on Nicole Wallace’s show on MSNBC this week for an extensive interview to tell her story and hasten the demise of the nation’s top cable network.

“Tucker and his executive producer Justin Wells, who was also fired, really were responsible for breaking me and making my life a living hell,” Grossberg claimed in the interview.

However, there is actually a significant problem with her accusations: her own lawyer admits that Grossberg never actually met Tucker Carlson.

“Like many on the [Tucker Carlson Tonight] staff, Abby never met Tucker Carlson in person because he taped the show from his personal studios in Maine and Florida, and he did not visit Fox’s NY HQ during her time there,” Kimberly A. Catala, one of the attorneys representing Grossberg, told Amber Athey of The Spectator.

Grossberg did maintain daily communication with Carlson through email and text, and they also had phone conversations until she left Fox News. The lawyers argued that even though Carlson was not physically present in the New York office, he directed other employees to create a “sexist” work environment on his behalf.

Fox News has inadvertently rescued Tucker Carlson’s future, by doing him the favor of “parting ways.”

Reading the lawsuit, and setting aside the adjectives and adverbs that are politically-correct and often used to elevate “sexist” complaints, upward to be CBS News gossip-worthy status (from the left-wing-nut view) . . .

There is enough information in the lawsuit, that indicates, that some of the Fox News management are a disaster in the making.

The weight of the lawsuit, is against Fox News management. Letting Tucker Carlson go, does not adjust that burden on poor management quality at Fox News.

She worked for Maria before sticker. Believe me, had Tucker not wanted her she wouldn’t have been on his team.
