Fox News producer files explosive lawsuits against the network, alleging she was coerced into providing misleading Dominion testimony


“Fox News Attorneys acted as agents and at the behest of Fox News to misleadingly coach, manipulate, and coerce Ms. Grossberg to deliver shaded and/or incomplete answers during her sworn deposition testimony, which answers were clearly to her reputational detriment but greatly benefitted Fox News,” the lawsuit filed in Delaware stated.
 
The 'news' people choose to consume is quite telling.

Some more than others. But there is truth being reported.

Generally speaking news organizations don't flat out lie. They slant the news and that politico story where they control the language of their reporting is one way for them to do exactly that. A truly free Press doesn't censor certain phrases like "biological male". I want to consume news where words and phrases are not censored
 


You mean like the far leftist booing harassment of Kamela at the NCAA tournament? Were the booers watching basketball or Kamea-fixated. You see, when you judge/point fingers at others, three fingers point at you, testifying you're thrice as guilty as the one you're accusing. Stop politicizing and watch the basketball game?
 
Taxpayer-Funded NPR to Fire 10% of Staff After $30M Budget Gap, Largest Layoff Since 2008

Taxpayer-funded NPR will lay off ten percent of its workforce, going from approximately 1,200 to about 1,050 employees, after the left-wing media company failed to generate enough revenue, the organization announced Thursday.

NPR, whose budget is subsidized nearly 11 percent by taxpayer funds, announced a staggering $30 million budget shortfall. The gap will impact ten percent of the media company’s employees and force the organization to cut four podcasts. The network vowed most cut employees would stay on until April 28.

CNN Faces Libel Lawsuit From Florida Heart Surgeon

CNN and two of its biggest stars are reportedly embroiled in a libel lawsuit involving a Florida heart surgeon Dr. Michael Black, dates to 2016.

The lawsuit involves alleged false reporting on infant mortality relating to the hospital’s open-heart surgery process.

According to Puck, the suit brought by Dr. Michael Black dates to 2016. At the time, CNN reported that St. Mary’s Medical Center open-heart surgery on infants led to a mortality rate of “three times the national average.”

Hospitals officials claim the reporting used cherry-picked data that was “flawed and deeply dishonest.” The network’s reporting prompted the hospital’s former chief executive, David Carbone, to resign and the hospital to shutter its pediatric cardiac surgery program.

At the center of the lawsuit is star anchor Anderson Cooper who was deposed for the case. Cooper reportedly told attorneys that he never attended editorial meetings where the story was brought up and did not have any involvement in disseminating information on social media about the case.

He reportedly would not answer whether financial bonuses were tied to his show’s ratings—however, the questionable reports aired during his performance and online.

What a clown this former POTUS has turned out to be. If he says it, then it must be gospel.
 
It's not front page news that Obama doesn't like Fox. It's the only network that didn't kiss his butt. I will give him credit for doing an interview every now and then with 'em which is more than Biden will do
