Maria Bartiromo Reportedly Fired by Fox for Sharing Information About Election-Rigging with Trump, Which Fox Decided Must be Suppressed

Update on Lindsay Clancy case, via Mark1971:

NEW: @FoxNews has obtained Lindsay Clancy defense attorney Kevin Reddington's appeal filing to the MA Supreme Court, which includes Reddington accusing the lone holdout juror of being "biased" against those with "debilitating mental illness", which he says is a protected category.

NEW: The Maria Bartiromo backstory, per multiple sources familiar....
Maria Bartiromo wanted to pursue a story related to China and 2020 election voting conspiracies... a major sensitivity for the network given its Dominion and Smartmatic lawsuits.
A Fox Business executive sent a text to Fox Business producers informing them that that story could not go to air.
Bartiromo took a screen shot of the guidance and sent it to senior White House officials.
Fox News leadership learned about that after receiving a call from the White House, which they viewed as a fireable offense.
Fox pulled Bartiromo from air after Aug. 9. She was fired today. I have also learned that her executive producer Patrick Ignozzi was also fired after the annoucnement.
Maria had resigned her contract with Fox last February.

Ed Morrissey suggests that "resigned" there is supposed to be "re-signed."

He adds that Maria Bartiromo is looking to sue:

Byers did add another juicy tidbit last night. Bartiromo has hired a well-known attorney to handle the situation with Fox. Bryan Freedman is a heavyweight in the entertainment industry, described by the Hollywood Reporter in 2024 as a "street fighter" and "the Dark Knight"...

Bryan Freedman represented Tuq'r Qarlson in his own suit against Fox, and actor Justin Baldoni in his defamation fight with cardboard actress Blake Lively. Tuq'r Qarlson praised him as "one of the good ones." (Not really, he hates all Jews.)

What is Fox even doing? Do they want to be MSNOW?

Unfortunately, JD Vance said that it was unlikely she would join the White House as Press Secretary:

Reporter: Maria Bartiromo left Fox News. Is she going to be the next White House press secretary?

What exactly is the fire able offense? Sharing an internal document?

Because as a Journalist, that internal document had become part of the story... and sending it to the President to get a response, would be a very good thing for a Journalist to do.

This sits at the very weird place where business rules intersect with Freedom of the Press.

43 Joke for ace:

After his plane was hit and he was forced to eject, the Marine Corps fighter pilot finally regained consciousness. He was in a hospital, in a lot of pain.
He found himself in the ICU with tubes/IV drips in both arms, a breathing mask, wires monitoring every function and a nurse hovering over him, looking worried. It was obvious he was in a life-threatening situation.

The nurse gave him a serious look, straight into his eyes. Knowing he was not only a fighter pilot, but a Marine, she spoke to him softly and slowly, enunciating each word:
"You may not feel anything from the waist down."

Somehow he managed to mumble in reply, "Can I feel your boobs, then?"
And that, my friends, is a real positive attitude.

Chyron: "Iran War in Stalemate"

Hilarious. Quite a "stalemate" there, guys.

US strikes easily/with impunity at anything we choose in Iran. Iran has only ineffective missile/drone responses. US engineers 50-70% of pre-war Strait oil exports. Financial noose around Iran tightens daily (no Iranian options to counter). Currency worthless, banks shuttering, even regime thugs unpaid, rivets popping on every aspect of regime structure.

A "stalemate". Also a "quagmire" I suppose. Tragically such nonsense will have traction with many, as early 2000s idiotic hysteria fits demo'd.

88 Most companies have a formal policy against sharing internal documents. And the story is that she took a screen shot of a doc and sent it to the WH. So not just discussing the contents, but actually making the doc itself public.

Sounds like Fox is legally justified in firing her even though they are colluding to cover up election fraud.

91 If you are resilient, you have RESILIENCE. You, nor anyone else has "resiliency" there's no such fcking word. If so, why stop there, just add all the other suffixes: resiliencyishnessocitytude.

Same thing for "competency" but that's as "accepted" in the Great Dumbing.

There is no patiency, no intelligency, magnificency....

It's fcking resilient.

92 For the (possibly) billionth time: Watching Milwaukee commit fraud in real-time in 2020 was astounding. They consolidated polling stations (COVID!!11!), had tons of mail-in fraud, and decided that it was a great idea during SOCIAL DISTANCING to count the ballots in a central location. So everything slowed down due to that last step, and they literally transported boxes of ballots with police escorts to City Hall in the wee hours of the morning. They had almost nothing set up to announce the results, and when they did, they just slapped pieces of paper on a whiteboard for the media that had camped out there.

It was truly unbelievable.

I mean, yeah. That would be something to base an appeal on if there is a conviction. How the hell could a lawyer "know" that there is such a bias unless a juror is communicating with him directly?

But for a hung jury? I don't see how this doesn't get rejected today. Perhaps the jury can be recalled and a mistrial declared before the weekend after all.

164 One thing I'll say for Juror Chad, he can be fairly confident that all of the women throwing themselves at him in the future wouldn't kill their kids...

FWIW, in legalese it's OK to refer to an indeterminate person as "he" / "him", so the holdout could be an actual strong independent woman. I wouldn't bet money on it, but it's possible. Are any 'Ettes missing since the trial started?

167 54 NEW: @FoxNews
has obtained Lindsay Clancy defense attorney Kevin Reddington’s appeal filing to the MA Supreme Court, which includes Reddington accusing the lone holdout juror of being “biased” against those with “debilitating mental illness”, which he says is a protected category.
Posted by: Mark1971

So now she actually has schizophrenia or dysthymia?

Yup.

Lindsay Clancy’s condition of bipolar II disorder with severe depression and postpartum psychosis was formally diagnosed retrospectively on January 24, 2023, by forensic psychiatrist Dr. Phillip Resnick.

That evaluation of Lindsay Clancy came after the tragedy occurred, reconstructing her mental state on that day by looking backward.

Part of the defense's argument and Clancy's separate civil malpractice lawsuit allege that these initial outpatient providers failed to properly diagnose her underlying bipolar disorder with postpartum onset prior to her psychotic break.

Sad. She was nuts way, way before then. The poor little children and then taxpayers pay.

He's assuming something about the juror he does not know.

Posted by: Tuna at September 04, 2026 01:56 PM (lJ0H4)

169 The juror sat through the trial. He saw the evidence. He heard the testimony. He made up his mind, has he is tasked to do, that she was sane enough to understand what she did was wrong and is criminally liable. Attacking him because he's not giving you a win seems, un-justice like........

170 The struggle here, the real war, is a war on definiteness, on finality, on facts. Every nerve fiber of post-modern libetalism is dedicated to the erasure of objective reason and perpetual quibbling over the meaning of difficult words like "is" and "woman". A week ago, I had no idea who this Clancy bitch is, but now I know she is nothing more than another signpost on the road to a society incapable of sustaining itself. For some, that sign post is a beacon pointing the way to Progress; for myself and many others, it demarks the edge of The Abyss, and a turning away.

217 "biased" against those with "debilitating mental illness", which he says is a protected category.

So the defense is stating that "debilitating mental illness" makes a criminal above the law because such perps are allegedly a "protected category".

So if an illegal alien has a "debilitating mental illness" — profoundly subjective in its definition, the illegal alien can rape and murder without consequence.

Who needs a lawyer now? Just find a shrink that will bestow upon the criminal the "debilitating mental illness" diagnosis. It doesn't matter if the DMI is totally under control of the criminal, such where they can switch the DMI on/off to whatever the situation requires.

Carlson said bad things about the voting machines. The voting machines were found to be bad. There was evidence they were tampered with past the 90 day lockdown, but nothing came of it.

Fox bent over awfully quick in that lawsuit against them for it.

257 When did mental illness become a "protected category?"
-----

That's a good question. Probably slowly at first, then all at once. Incremental carve-outs.

Part of it is due to perverse incentives in funding, and of course government regulation. "Least Restrictive Environment" in schools. We used to call them "handicapped" students, and that covered a lot of things other than mental cases. But they made it illegal to separate students for any reason.

Crazy has been normalized. And of course, along with that, normal has been demonized.

272 Another joke for ace:

A Marine squad was marching north of Fallujah when they came upon an Iraqi terrorist who was badly injured and unconscious. On the opposite side of the road was an American Marine in a similar but less serious state. The Marine was conscious and alert and as first aid was given to both men, the Squad Leader asked the injured Marine what had happened.

The Marine reported, "I was heavily armed and moving north along the highway here, and coming south was a heavily armed insurgent. We saw each other and both took cover in the ditches along the road.

I yelled to him that Saddam Hussein was a miserable, lowlife scum-bag who got what he deserved.
He yelled back, "Barack Obama is a lying, good-for-nothing, left wing Commie who isn't even an American.
So I said, "Osama Bin Laden dresses and acts like a frigid, mean-spirited lesbian!
He retaliated by yelling, "Oh yeah? Well, so does Nancy Pelosi!

And, there we were, in the middle of the road, shaking hands, when a truck hit us.

335 Dawn Light* is a 56 year old native of MA. She was arrested trying to photograph the jurors in the Lindsay Clancy trial after they were dismissed for a day. Police found in the Deleted folder on her phone a video of the jurors.

She has an Oct 15th court date on these charges. The judge has banned her from the courthouse or publishing anything online.

*She is preceded in death by her husband from ALS and a son. She actually fell into the hole where her son was buried.

337 OT, looks like Iran is saying "thank you sir, may I have another?" - launches BMs at US bases in Jordan. Their comical military spokesman declares it a "pre-emptive" strike. Umm, actually, Reza, this much more likely a provocative strike that will net you another round of devastating strikes by the US against which you have no defense (Allah willing, and we stick to our current sensible posture).

354 I asked AI to explain why NANC isn't proof of insider trading and it gave me back some academic argument that claims congressional Dems just got lucky because they invested in stocks with high volatility.

So I asked the obvious follow up, are highly volatile stocks exactly what you would invest in based on insider information? And the answer, amusingly, was several pages of yes and why that would be the case.

I see this a lot with AI, the first answer is leftist pablum and then if you question it you get real answers...

359 UK DM says the appeal to the Assachusetts Supremes, the defense attorney ghoul is saying this, paraphrased:

"The jurist is biased against people with disabilities."

Wut.

Thank goodness for the lone male juror who held out in spite of jury pressure within; a Karen taking his photo; and the defense attorney who will probably name him and give his address. Insanity.

I have to leave soon and will probably hear the verdict and have to concentrate on driving. Outrageous if she's wheeled free.

I remember hearing that Casey Anthony was free as a bird in the check out line in Publix in FL. Everyone was aghast at the decision, all of us bonded in shock. She's still living large somewhere with a boyfriend and I hope her tubes are tied.

365 304 The latitude that has been given to the defense attorney, after the judge essentially said it is over, is insane. They didnt find her guilty, she has another shot, and plenty to appeal if she was convicted. This is unprofessional.

How is it ethical to out a single juror during deliberations? This defense attorney is a loudmouth obnoxious hack. But then again, he has an evil client, so...

366 crim rule 25 - motion for acquittal or not guilty finding

defense can make asking judge to say prosecution did not present enough evidence of guilt to warrant a conviction.

Judge can grant. or deny. They can renew it next week even if denied today.

Thankful!

THIS next trial the jury should be half male, half female. And sequestered. With the Pinkos sectioned off far away from seeing anyone up close for photos.

It's as easy as that to not jury tamper like Dawn Light.
