It’s About to Get Ugly: Fox News Brass Compiled ‘Oppo File’ on Tucker Carlson, and They Will Use It
PJ Media ^ | 04/28/2023 | Matt Margolis

It looks like things may get really messy between Tucker Carlson and Fox News.

Apparently, Fox News has created a secret “oppo file” on Carlson, just in case he decides to take any legal action against them. According to a report from Rolling Stone, eight individuals at Fox News confirmed the existence of the file, which could be used to tarnish Carlson’s reputation if he doesn’t play nice after separating from the network.

The file includes internal complaints regarding workplace conduct, disparaging comments about management and colleagues, and allegations that the now-former prime-time host created a toxic work environment, three of the sources say,” the pop culture rag claims. It points out that “Carlson is currently facing a lawsuit from a former senior booking producer, Abby Grossberg, alleging a toxic and misogynist workplace environment. The lawsuit details repeated instances of misogynist behavior at the network, including frequent lewd and sexual discussions of female guests and public figures.…”

According to the lawsuit filed by Grossberg, she was subjected to a toxic work environment that perpetuated sexist stereotypes, discriminated against religious minorities and their customs, and showed little concern for individuals dealing with mental health issues. Fox has denied the allegations, stating that the accusations lacked merit.

As we previously reported here at PJ Media, Grossberg’s lawsuit is questionable, as it has been confirmed that she never actually met Carlson in person. Between Rolling Stone‘s credibility issues and the fact that Fox News has denied the allegations of Grossberg’s lawsuit, it’s hard to reconcile the magazine’s claims.

For what it’s worth, the network denies the existence of an “oppo file” on Carlson. “This is patently absurd and categorically false,” a spokesperson for Fox News said in a statement to Rolling Stone

I’m sure Tucker has just as much dirt on Fox execs too. Checkmate, Rupert.

Faux employs one of the left’s sleaziest tactics. It’ll boomerang on them.

After seeing how the public has reacted lately to companies that want to ignore public sentiment, don’t they realize how badly they are about to lose?

An ‘oppo file’ on Tucker, would tarnish FOX’s reputation more than the oppo-file would tarnish Tucker’s.

Go drink your Bud Light Fox. You are done. Just another propaganda arm of the Marxist left.

This obvious desperation by the execs at Fox indicates to me I was correct in posting my assumption the other day:

Rupert Murdoch wakes up after a week-long bender and exclaims, “I fired WHO???”

It won’t work with me just like this kind of garbage didn’t work with me regarding Trump.

FOX News does this kind of thing and they will lose all their viewers. They are already tanking, So far Tucker has said nothing nasty regarding FOX. FOX in return has already been leaking some of their foul smears toward Tucker.

Especially since Tucker works remotely and isn’t part of the workplace atmosphere. So essentially they will be trying to blame him for the conduct of others.

These wh0 are working to shut down dissent.. who call names of anyone who disagrees with them.. they go at it day after day..
Where are the republicans.. yeah I know, they don’t defend, they don’t fight... and it’s really old stuff!!
If you are in a war with an enemy and you are the only one playing fair.. YOU WILL LOSE! That describes the GOP.
MTG spoke out this past week, calling what’s his name, a liar. Congress came down on her. Watching that man answer questions, he lied with every answer... what’s the answer.. just thank him and let him go? The fact biden is in the office ... it is a travesty and will always go down as the elected President was denied to serve and both parties took part in that coup against the will of the people.
In all of my life...that coup was the end of our great nation. we are today paying for biden.. how in the world did this nation choose a weak, senile, hard democrat, commie.. serve as the leader... how in the world was that not fought tooth and nail!!
So disappointed in how people judge right and wrong.. good and bad...Trump could be serving and our economy would be fine. things could be working great.. but for the side that did not want Trump... it was their reasons and it was their personal wants... they gave no thought to the people out here.

Non-disparaging agreements work both ways. Tucker was not nice to people in his emails and he used nasty names...oh my lord! Who gives a $hit? Carlson was not my friend, my idol he certainly is not Rush. At times I liked what he said. At times he was entertaining at other times he made some serious very valid points. After fourteen years and with rumors that he did not like certain on air personalities, I suspect he could fling some dirt that would hurt FOX more than him.

Everything FOX does will backfire and make Tucker even stronger.

Rupert took the bait and started the ball rolling.

So they had this file on Carlson and didn’t take appropriate action? What does that tell you?
