(Jewish Group) Tucker Carlson's senior producer repeatedly made antisemitic comments
Tucker Carlsons senior producer repeatedly made antisemitic comments to Jewish staffers, lawsuit claims
A Jewish producer at Fox News filed a lawsuit against the network Monday that claims the network pressured her to provide deceptive testimony in the ongoing legal dispute over its reporting of baseless election fraud allegations. Abby Grossberg, who was recently head of booking for Tucker Carlsons primetime program, paints a picture in the suit of an office culture rife with sexism and antisemitism.
She details in the suit offensive jokes about Jews made by Alexander McCaskill, the shows senior producer, in recent months.
McCaskill displayed his discriminatory animus against her last October over Christmas decorations in the booking staffs area in the office. The loud inflatables distracted her, but when she tried to turn them off, McCaskill called her a Scrooge and a Grinch, she claims in the suit, which was filed in district court in New York and Delaware. She said he also hung a sign on a Christmas tree that had been placed near her desk that read, Hannukah Bush.
Grossberg also said McCaskill invaded her privacy when he asked where her tattoos were, and that Andrew Carmichael, an editorial producer, stated he thought it was forbidden for Jews to have tattoos.
