Jason Donner alleges in the lawsuit that Fox News knew President Donald Trump's claims that voter fraud was behind his 2020 loss were false but that following backlash from Trump and the network's audience over its Election Day announcement that President Joe Biden had won Arizona, it "purged" journalists who spoke out against false election fraud claims. Well, we know this to be fact, as they lost a hefty ass lawsuit over it. --- Rage is a hell of an anesthetic. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Is it illegal for a network to fire a reporter for not reporting the stories they were told?
Don't get me wrong, Fox is grotesque and election deniers are are silly as anti-vaxxers, Brexiters, SNP, Flat Earthers, Evolution deniers, Birthers etc But if Fox News say "Go report about that Tobey Maguire says it's raining outside a little bit" then isn't it your job to do it or quit? Regardless of if it's raining or not --- ^ Hey now that's completely unfair! http://i.imgur.com/yPw05Ob.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

Usually Fox is pretty good at "Not lying" while spinning a narrative
Lots of "People say" and "How do you respond to the accusation that" --- ^ Hey now that's completely unfair! http://i.imgur.com/yPw05Ob.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

They could face a class action thing if enough people got the axe over this kind of stuff.
