If you’re keeping up with the buzz surrounding Tucker Carlson’s departure from Fox News, you may come across the name Abby Grossberg. Grossberg was fired from Fox News in March and is currently suing the network and Carlson for allegedly fostering a hostile work environment. As is the norm, anyone who claims to have dirt on Fox News is given instant celebrity status, so naturally, Grossberg appeared on Nicole Wallace’s show on MSNBC this week for an extensive interview to tell her story and hasten the demise of the nation’s top cable network.
“Tucker and his executive producer Justin Wells, who was also fired, really were responsible for breaking me and making my life a living hell,” Grossberg claimed in the interview.
However, there is actually a significant problem with her accusations: her own lawyer admits that Grossberg never actually met Tucker Carlson.
“Like many on the [Tucker Carlson Tonight] staff, Abby never met Tucker Carlson in person because he taped the show from his personal studios in Maine and Florida, and he did not visit Fox’s NY HQ during her time there,” Kimberly A. Catala, one of the attorneys representing Grossberg, told Amber Athey of The Spectator.

Doesn't matter. It was an obvious wrap-up smear. I would not be surprised to find out that she never actually worked on his show.
