Amid recent changes to Fox News, which has resulted in the cancellation of “Lou Dobbs Tonight,” the network’s CEO Suzanne Scott will hold a quarterly address with employees this week per Mediaite.
Furthermore, 2021 started rough for Fox News, which received a $2.7 billion lawsuit from voting systems firm Smartmatic. The suit was filed against Fox and hosts, including Dobbs, over false claims made about the election.
Ratings have also declined as the network has fallen to third place in the ratings behind CNN and MSNBC. Ratings seem to be going up after a tough start to the year. Nonetheless, Scott is ready to discuss the issues plaguing Fox News in a written memo to employees.
“We will be conducting a company-wide address via audio Zoom as part of our quarterly town hall series,” Scott wrote in her memo. “We will be updating everyone on various initiatives and sharing the good news taking place across our platforms. Over the last few weeks, Fox has shaken up its lineup, particularly their daytime program as they gear towards covering the Joe Biden administration for the next four years.
