Ex-Producer Suing Tucker Carlson Admits They’ve Never Met

PM: Tucker Carlson Tonight producer Abby Grossberg is suing Carlson and the Fox Network over sexual behavior in the workplace, despite never having met Carlson in person.

The Spectator reports that lawyers for Grossberg have confirmed that she never actually met Carlson. “Like many on the [Tucker Carlson Tonight] staff, Abby never met Tucker Carlson in person because he taped the show from his personal studios in Maine and Florida, and he did not visit Fox’s NY HQ during her time there,” said one of Grossberg’s attorneys Kimberly A. Catala.

Grossberg was the head of booking from July 2022 until she was recently placed on leave in March. She “alleges that Carlson encouraged a hostile and sexist workplace environment among his employees. Grossberg says she was subjected to bullying, antisemitic comments and sexism by staff while working out of Fox’s Manhattan office,” Spectator reports.

Despite never having met Carlson, Grossberg told rival network MSNBC that “Tucker and his executive producer Justin Wells, who was also fired, really were responsible for breaking me and making my life a living hell.”

“Since Tucker did not come to the Fox office, he relied on Justin Wells, his executive producer, and others like Alexander McCaskill, senior producer, who were present in the office every day to be his eyes, ears and mouthpiece, and to convey his ‘tone,’ as they threateningly reminded Ms. Grossberg,” Catala said.

The allegation per Grossberg’s attorneys is that Carlson directed the “sexist” environment from afar. Apparently, the attorneys posited that Carlson had staff work as his “eyes” and “ears” in the New York office while he worked away in Maine.

Fun fact: Abby Grossberg never met Tucker Carlson.

Carlson and Fox parted ways on Monday morning, though promos for the evening’s show were already airing as the press release from Fox went out. It is unclear as to why Fox dismissed the insanely popular news anchor, though speculation abounds, including that Fox owner Rupert Murdoch took issue with Carlson’s Christian beliefs.

Carlson has been seen in Florida enjoying time with his wife, and laughing about finally being able to dine together on weeknights. His show has been on the air for 7 years, and in that time he amassed a loyal following. In the hours following his departure from the network, “RIP Fox News” was trending on Twitter as many viewers found they had no reason to tune in once Carlson was no longer on the air.

The end of the Tucker Carlson Tonight era was celebrated by AOC, who had called for federal regulation of Fox and Carlson, which routinely took aim at her and her shenanigans.
