A woman who filed a pair of lawsuits accusing her employer Fox News of fostering a sexist work environment and pressuring her into giving false testimony in a defamation case was fired by the network in retaliation, according to her amended court filings.
Attorneys for Abby Grossberg, a now-former producer for Fox programmes starring Tucker Carlson and Maria Bartiromo, claim she was unlawfully terminated days after she filed her complaints in New York and in Delaware, where the network is defending itself from a $1.6bn defamation lawsuit from Dominion Voting Systems, according to documents filed on 27 March.
