That's Interesting Timing
This morning, former Fox News Anchor Juliet Huddy went on Megyn Kelly's NBC show to talk about the culture at Fox News.
Later, Fox News announced that they have fired Juliet Huddy's brother John.
John Huddy was a Jerusalem-based foreign correspondent that joined Fox News in 2014.
Juliet Huddy was one of 6 women that have settled sexual harassment claims against Bill O'Reilly. Juliet appeared on Kelly's show this morning and although she could not talk about her dealings with O'Reilly do to a non-disclosure agreement, she did talk about the culture at Fox News.
Fox News says that the firing of John Huddy had nothing to do with Juliet's appearance on Kelly's show.
FNC released a statement saying, “Following a thorough investigation into a physical altercation earlier this month, FOX News made the decision to sever ties with Jerusalem-based correspondent John Huddy. The network’s investigation concluded last week, and due to observation of the Sabbath on Friday, terminated Huddy’s employment this morning.”
No matter what the case, the timing could not have been worse for Fox News.
Both John and Juliet are the offspring of John Huddy Sr. who was a very close friend to former Fox News head Roger Ailes.
