When is gretchen carlson on fox news

Appearing on BuzzFeed News' morning show AM to DM on Wednesday to promote her recent work campaigning against nondisclosure agreements for victims of sexual harassment, Carlson was asked what she would say to people who felt alienated by her many years of controversial statements on Fox News.

Carlson, who has said she has always identified as an independent, added, "I think if you look back on my past history, you will see I had many small protests along the way.

In fact, when I got fired, people actually thought on social media I got fired because I came out in favor of that. Were there repercussions? What was it like watching Fox News during the Trump administration, when the two were in lock-step with one another?

So, number one, journalists started covering these stories. Number two, social media had a huge impact in this, because people could come forward with their stories anonymously or with a name and a face. And it exploded because of that. And number three, the American public was pissed off. I mean, women knew what was happening. Because everything was going into secrecy in arbitration and NDAs. And then I was Miss America? Like, what? I mean, I was a short, chubby tomboy from Minnesota.

And I was smart. Then, I was supposed to be a lawyer, and then I ended up being a journalist. And I love black. More interviews with fascinating people in entertainment and the arts.
