Ex-Fox News Employee Says She Was Blocked From Investigating Trump-Russia Ties

A former Fox News employee said the network blocked her from going to Moscow to investigate President Donald Trump’s links with Russia, one of several claims of news bias at 21st Century Fox Inc. made by former and current workers opposing its takeover of Sky Plc.

“You can’t do in-depth reporting if you’re not there,” said Jessica Golloher, a former Fox Radio correspondent who is suing the division for gender discrimination, at a gathering with U.K. lawmakers and citizens in Parliament on Monday. “Fox didn’t let me go to Moscow to dig into Trump’s Russian connections, even when I offered to pay my own way.”

“Fox is just buying what the White House is selling,” she said.

No he isn’t one, he regularly criticizes Trump, and doesn’t minimize people’s concerns with him. Crockett is an example of a Trump supporter.

I can criticize Trump plenty and I share some of the common concerns with him. I would have gladly taken almost any of the other republican contenders over Trump (assuming they would have beaten Hillary) and I would even consider voting for a moderate, JFK-type democrat (if such a thing even exists any more) over Trump.

But, most of you are concerned with Trump's style (which I very much dislike, too, except that he's a fighter) and ignore the substance. There are a bunch of supposed conservatives on here that virtue-signal they didn't vote for Trump, meanwhile Trump is pursuing a largely conservative agenda and accomplishing a number of things that most conservatives like. They just don't like how he goes about it (which I completely agree with), but at least conservatives should recognize some of the good things that are happening under Trump's watch. A bunch of trade wars and WWIII are not looming. That's just part of the Art of the Deal. And I do like to challenge some of the Trump Derangement that goes on, because it is often unhinged.

Uh Trump hasn't accomplished anything yet, his anti immigrant racist cheerleading is damaging the party and will hurt the country for decades. Republicans are slowly tu4ning into the xenophobic party because of Trump and trumpers

Well, he did appoint a SC Justice. Not sure if that counts as an "accomplishment" per se.

Okay, so you are not paying attention.

BTW, funny how Trump wasn't racist until he ran for office as a republican.



Maybe democrats always call republicans racists no matter what?

[Crockett]

That is #1 and that will have consequences for decades.

thats all you got? that is definitely worth the increase in xenophobic policies, closing down immigration, international embarrassment, and the republican party tending further towards racism

[Uncle Ted]

He freed those poor UCLA basketball players from the Chinese commies!

No, I said that is the top of the list. I'll share a few more:

2) doubled the economic growth rate
3) low unemployment at 4.1% (it hasn't been this low since the last republican president)
4) all time stock market highs
5) heavily reduced ILLEGAL immigration
6) federal govt size is shrinking (couple of months ago I read that the federal workforce was already 20,000+ smaller)
7) ISIS is being driven and crushed, finally
8) on track to pass the greatest tax cuts since Reagan
9) rolling back EPA gone wild
10) school choice advocate leading the Dept of Education
11) support of religious liberty (expanded religious and moral exemptions for mandated contraceptive coverage under Obamacare)
12) reducing regulations
13) pro-life support
14) 2d amendment support
and more...

BTW, are you for open borders? If no, then we both basically agree there is a limit to legal immigration and then we can quibble about the right level. But having limits does not make one a xenophobe.

He hasn't done anything to get 2, l3, 4. And no I don't think reporting a bunch of people that don't deserve to be deported is an accomplishment. And besides, it's fake news, Obama was deporting at record levels.

7 has nothing to do with trump. Obama was doing the exact same thing. 8...this bill hurts basically every income group except trumps. 10...bevos is only there because she is rich and donated a bunch of money. Not qualified.

11...Well except wanting to ban Muslims.

13 and 14 are just positions , not accomplishments.

The only things in the list that Trump actually did something are may be 9 and 12.

[Jeff Lebowski]

That’s a funny list.

Comrade Trump

Trump defeated the great Satan, Hillary Clinton, in the presidential election. He should be awarded the Nobel Piece Prize for that alone!

That’s a funny list.

‘Ha-ha’ funny, or ‘Crockett is pretending to be a reluctant Trump supporter’ funny?

[Goatnapper'96]

That’s a funny list.

Without the pathological hatred of the left of all things Trump, a number of which are worth hating, I doubt the country decides powerful men taking sexual advantage of women is wrong. Now, I think some of this is stroking the flames of victimhood the left loves so much and to be honest I struggle to see how Senator Franken is anything more than the crude dickhead everyone should have known him to be when they elected him, but culturally I believe this is moving the needle in a good direction. There is no way the left could have come to grips that Clinton was wrong and admitted their own partisanship causes them to ignore their cherished values without Donald Trump both beating Hillary and being such a great representative of that egregious tendency in our culture.

So ya, the Justice Gorsuch and moving the needle on powerful men's bad behavior toward women.

A consequence, not an accomplishment.
