Five years ago today I called out Fox Corp live on air, then did several independent reports on how they’d become compromised: ⚫️Fox had threatened to fire me for covering the story they assigned me to cover, all because the true narrative was different from the “safe” narrative they had anticipated. ⚫️The true narrative was that four times more lives were being saved at a hospital that used a COVID treatment protocol that the CDC/FDA recommended against using. ⚫️Fox had been pushing its reporters to only tell people to do what the CDC/FDA said to do, rather than pursuing journalism which is: Go out and see what people are actually doing and cover what’s actually working and not working. ⚫️So when Fox sent me to a hospital to cover COVID treatment, they expected me to report the copy/paste version of what CDC/FDA said to tell people was happening. ⚫️When I adhered to journalism and covered what was actually happening there, Fox issued a letter for my files, lying about me, threatening to fire me, and they put me on a social media blackout—no posting anything unless it is “safe news” approved by management before the post. ⚫️All because I approached a COVID story the same way I approached crime stories: Go out there, be curious, ask the people’s questions, report what’s actually happening. ⚫️When Fox crossed the line and later sent their HR lady in Atlanta after me to tell me standing up for free speech is not something I’m allowed to do, I knew it was time to leave that compromised company. (I’ve posted all the receipts from this showdown in the past and still have more receipts I haven’t posted.) ⚫️I left the company and then found out there were Fox Corp employees all over the nation going through similar stories. I heard from staff at other news companies—ABC, CBS, etc.—with very similar stories. ⚫️It was much easier for me to leave and sound the alarm as a single girl who didn’t have a family to provide for. My heart goes out to those who have not left and are still within the compromised machine at news companies across the country. ⚫️May you find a way to take a stand, even if from the inside. Never compromise your conscience. Take a stand—even a small one—and God will protect you. Life’s too short not to. ⚫️We’re not in the pandemic anymore, but there are countless news stories where the corporations just don’t have the spine to tell the truth, and they’re ready to persecute their reporters for sticking with journalism. ⚫️Yes, COVID treatment was not the only story Fox was compromised on. I went on to cover how they hid anomalies related to elections to help viewers believe elections are always perfect. I covered how they acted as a PR team for vaccine companies rather than seeking answers to their viewers’ concerns about them. And I covered how they used crime coverage to deceptively pit races against each other in an effort to increase ratings. ⚫️I thank @JamesOKeefeIII and @Project_Veritas from the bottom of my heart for picking up my story and sending it so viral. I do believe it made at least a small difference in challenging news outlets to get back to honesty over “safety.”
