"I'd like to speak to Fox's attorneys… I challenge you to debate me, I'll go on Fox air with any of you, all of you, and you can show me one place… in any of our public pleadings where we have said a falsehood" – Abby Grossberg's lawyer Gerry Filippatos w/ @NicolleDWallace pic.twitter.com/4PJ7px7wZk

Grossberg worked as a senior producer for hosts Maria Bartiromo and Tucker Carlson during her time with the conservative news network. NBC News reports that it is alleged in a new sworn statement that Fox lawyers ignored repeated reminders about an additional cellphone in Grossberg’s possession and did not search it during court-ordered discovery.
According to the statement, Grossberg claims she repeatedly told Fox lawyers that she had an inoperable company-issued cellphone that she used during 2020 election coverage. Fox lawyers told her to hang on to the device but never searched it or copied her files.
Abby Grossberg, the former Fox producer who claims the network pressured her to give false testimony, just escalated her own lawsuit against the company, adding CEO Suzanne Scott as defendant and accusing Fox's lawyers of deleting messages from her phone. https://t.co/92s1mh4yzt

Grossberg filed a lawsuit claiming that Fox lawyers coerced her into giving misleading testimony in the Dominion case. She was fired from the news network soon after. In a statement, Fox says she was fired for divulging privileged information.
In the new statement, Grossberg says that a forensic expert recently pulled two recordings off the broken phone that she recorded using an app called Otter. The app simultaneously records and creates text transcriptions of audio files.
The recordings were shared with NBC News as well as detailed in the affidavit. The recordings are of phone interviews she participated in with Bartiromo. One of the interviews is with Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and another is with two sources who claimed to know about Dominion voter fraud.
The prospect of former Fox News producer Abby Grossberg’s secret recordings being played during trial helped push the network to its $787.5 million defamation settlement with Dominion Voting Systems. https://t.co/SNUsxtprPc

She explained that using apps like Otter was normal due to her work as a producer. The recordings made by the Otter app are saved within the app and they can also be shared.
“Abby Grossberg stands ready to do her part to ensure that justice is done; that those who are licensed and obligated to tell the truth, and guide others to the truth, do just that. As soon as possible and practicable, Ms. Grossberg will continue to set the record straight by telling all she knows to those who need to know,” said Gerry Filippatos, Abby Grossbergs’ attorney, said in a statement.
