Former Fox Host Speaks About Being Fired Via Teleprompter Amid Carlson Fallout

Former Fox News host Melissa Francis has spoken about her departure from the network amid the fallout from Tucker Carlson and Fox News “parting ways.”

In an interview with Megyn Kelly on Sirius XM, Francis began by recalling an alleged incident in which Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott “shrugged it off” when her supervisor at the network sent an email calling Francis a “misogynistic sexist name.”

“When I worked at Fox News, there was a manager of mine who sent an email calling me a misogynistic, sexist name, and talking about — demeaning my behavior. He sent it around to all of the managers, and accidentally included me — we’ve all done that, to be honest. When you’re gossiping about someone and you add them to it too,” Francis said.

“So he did that. So when I received that email I went directly to [Fox News CEO] Suzanne Scott’s office because she also was copied on the email. And I said, what the f***?’ Like — I mean — and she shrugged it off. And that man who sent that email demeaning me in a sexist and misogynistic way still works there. In fact, he was the author of many of the things you read in the Dominion case,” she added. “And I checked yesterday — he’s still there. So this idea, that something in a text would be so awful that they wouldn’t — they’re on the side of women. They don’t want to subject Fox women to an environment where you have someone like Tucker saying those words — that is a bald-faced lie.”

Francis said she was axed via teleprompter.

The former Fox News host was paid $15 million in 2022 after she filed a gender-based pay disparity claim against the company. Francis’ team seems to believe she was let go from Fox News over her lawsuit against the network.
