A board member named Ryan believed that the period following the 2020 Presidential Election will be crucial for the Fox Corporation and the conservative movement. As stated in the statement quoting an exhibit, Ryan informed Rupert and Lachlan of his position as a fiduciary and expressed this stance to them.
“Ryan told Rupert and Lachlan ‘that Fox News should not be spreading conspiracy theories,’” it noted further.
“On December 6 , 2020, Paul Ryan texted Rupert and Lachlan, telling them, we are entering a truly bizarre phase of this where [Trump] has actually convinced himself of this farce and will do more bizarre things to delegitimize the election,” the document says. “I see this as a key inflection point for Fox, where the right thing and the smart business thing to do line up nicely.”
“Ryan told Dias about his own conversation with Rupert and Lachlan, reporting he told them that ‘this is a huge inflection point to keep Trump down and move on for the future of the conservative movement.’ Ryan added: ‘Both Rupert and Lachlan agree fully. The key is to execute our collective will,’” the document added.
The network has terminated the contracts of two well-known individuals, including Fox’s highest-rated host, as a result of the settlement.
There have been substantial changes at Fox News lately, especially with regard to their on-air talent. The resignation of Tucker Carlson, a renowned personality who routinely surpassed all other cable news hosts, is particularly noteworthy. The person who ultimately decided to terminate connections with him has now been identified in a new report.
