"This was a pretextual firing based on Donner's political views and affiliation, his refusal to report false information regarding the 2020 election and January 6th, and for his engaging in protected activity," Donner writes in his complaint.
"To win back viewership and pledge its loyalty to President Trump, Fox's corporate leadership purged the news division and those reporters who spoke out against claims of election fraud," he said.
According to Donner, who now works for Pennsylvania Republican Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick, he got pushback from his bosses in 2020 for fact-checking Rudy Giuliani's false claims about election fraud at the infamous RNC presser where the lawyer leaked hair dye at the lectern.
