Fox News Employees Raise Concerns Network Aided Trump, Legal Filings Reveal
Internal surveys from Fox News employees, released as part of a defamation lawsuit, revealed concerns about the network’s editorial standards and the conduct of prominent hosts. Anonymous employees expressed worries that the network favored Donald Trump and the Republican Party, with some questioning their morals and the network’s integrity. These comments, drawn from a 2020 survey, reflect a desire for more factual reporting and less “hateful rhetoric,” particularly from opinion hosts. Despite these concerns, Fox maintains the responses are irrelevant to the lawsuit’s focus on the 2020 election coverage and that the company had been previously certified as a good place to work.
