Efforts to gin up a moral panic over schools is alienating the Fox Corporation from some of its own employees.
"Fox News' overtly anti-LGBTQ rhetoric and coverage of Florida's 'Don't Say Gay' bill has generated outrage from elsewhere within the Murdoch media empire," The Daily Beast reported Wednesday. "An employee networking and resource group for Fox Corporation's LGBTQ staffers and allies earlier this month condemned the conservative cable giant's "hateful" coverage of the new Florida law and issues surrounding sexual orientation and gender identity. The denunciation was in response to the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) removing Fox Corp's status as a preferred LGBTQ employer over its recent on-air rhetoric."
