THE MASSIVE DOMINION SETTLEMENT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS. SURE
We saw reports over the past few days that indicated Fox “News” is disbanding its investigative unit to cut costs following the company’s $787.5 million settlement with Dominion Voting Systems.
But the report, which first showed up in “Rolling Stone,” was quickly countered by a FOX denial that the article didn’t exactly reflect what was happening.
“The rank and file journalists are getting let go, meanwhile upper management are sitting pretty while they are the execs responsible for the Dominion debacle,” one Fox employee told “Rolling Stone”.
Layoffs are happening “and continue to happen,” claimed another staffer, while a former employee said, “They have to save money because of the [Dominion] lawsuit.”
But FOX says that personnel assigned to the unit are merely being realigned.
Three members of a seven-member unit were realigned right out of the company while four others were given positions in other areas of the news division.
We report….you decide.
