Fox News producer, Abby Grossberg, has filed two lawsuits against her employer and, in one, she made the accusation about the affair, Radar Online\u00a0reported<\/a>.\u00a0She claimed that in September 2022 she was \u201cunlawfully harassed\u201d by \u201cTucker Carlson Tonight\u201d producers Justin Wells and Alexander McCaskill after they called her into their office to ask if there was an affair.<\/p>\n \u201cThe next day, Mr. Wells called Ms. Grossberg into his office, where Mr. McCaskill was present, and asked her an uncomfortable sexual question about her former boss: \u2018Is Maria Bartiromo f\u2014\u2013g Kevin McCarthy?\u2019\u201d the lawsuit, filed on Monday, said.<\/p>\n \u201cShocked, Ms. Grossberg replied \u2018No,\u2019 and quickly left the room,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n In her lawsuits the producer claimed that \u201cfemale employees at Fox News were openly harassed, the network\u2019s executives referred to Bartiromo as a \u2018crazy b\u2014h,\u2019 and Grossberg herself was harassed over her \u2018gender and Jewish religion,\u2019\u201d Radar Online reported.<\/p>\n It marks a tough time for Fox News, but the network continues to dominate its competition, beating out MSNBC and CNN combined in total viewers on Thursday.<\/p>\n <\/ins><\/div>\n According to\u00a0Mediaite<\/a>, \u201cFox News averaged 1.54 million total day viewers and 178,000 demo viewers to land in first place.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cMSNBC brought in an average of 852,000 total day viewers and 90,000 demo viewers to come in second. CNN, meanwhile, averaged 403,000 total day viewers and 78,000 demo viewers for third,\u201d the report said.<\/p>\n Right-leaning Newsmax came in fourth overall, followed NewsNation, where former CNN primetime host Chris Cuomo has a show, a distant fifth place.<\/p>\n All of Fox\u2019s prime-time shows, beginning with \u201cThe Five\u201d blew away competitors.<\/p>\n As for the top three networks, here are Thursday\u2019s numbers:<\/p>\n Total viewers:<\/strong><\/p>\n CNN: 403,000<\/p>\n Fox News: 1.54 million<\/p>\n MSNBC: 852,000<\/p>\n 25-54 Demo:<\/strong><\/p>\n CNN: 78,000<\/p>\n Fox News: 178,000<\/p>\n MSNBC: 90,000<\/p>\n Here are the primetime figures in terms of overall viewers and key demo viewers (ages 35-54):<\/p>\n 25-54 Demo:<\/strong><\/p>\n CNN: 78,000<\/p>\n Fox News: 245,000<\/p>\n MSNBC: 118,000<\/p>\n Last week, according to\u00a0Mediaite, Carlson\u2019s show was the\u00a0highest-rated program<\/a>\u00a0in all of cable news, bringing in a whopping 3.09 million total viewers and 365,000 in the 25-54 demo as he aired video footage from the Jan. 6 protest at the U.S. Capitol Building in 2021.<\/p>\n \u201cThat audience was enough to beat out the usual top show in cable news, Fox News\u2019s The Five, as well as beat the competition on MSNBC and CNN by miles.\u00a0In total viewers, Carlson tripled the 8 p.m. competition on MSNBC and sextupled his CNN rival. In the demo, Carlson more than tripled both MSNBC and CNN,\u201d Mediaite reported.<\/p>\n On another night last week, \u201cTucker Carlson Tonight\u201d brought in a whopping 4.1 million total viewers. Fox News prime time soared to over 3 million average viewers throughout the day, destroying competition.<\/p>\n \u201cThe very strong prime time number was anchored by Tucker Carlson, who brought in 4.14 million total viewers as his show sparked controversy on Monday night for his Jan. 6th coverage. Fox prime time doubled MSNBC\u2019s average of 1.49 million total viewers and brought in more than six times the viewers of CNN. CNN\u2019s prime time average came in at 451,000 total viewers,\u201d\u00a0Mediaite\u00a0reported<\/a>.<\/p>\n Not everyone w as happy about him showing the footage, however.<\/p>\n <\/ins><\/div>\n The chief of the U.S. Capitol Police issued a memo to his staff following the airing of the previously unseen security footage, which showed police officers appearing to stand passively by as a large crowd entered the Capitol.<\/p>\n Police Chief Tom Manger condemned the comments made during the airing of the footage on Carlson\u2019s Monday night program, stating that it was \u201cfilled with offensive and misleading conclusions\u201d about the riot of January 6, 2021, when a group of people breached the U.S. Capitol building, causing disruptions to lawmakers who were in the process of certifying President Joe Biden\u2019s 2020 election victory.<\/p>\n \u201cThe program conveniently cherry-picked from the calmer moments of our 41,000 hours of video,\u201d Manger claimed. \u201cThe commentary fails to provide context about the chaos and violence that happened before or during these less tense moments.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A blockbuster accusation has come from a Fox News producer who is suing the network, alleging harassment for her gender and religion.
