Why did Guilfoyle really leave Fox News?
In July 2018, Fox News announced Guilfoyle’s departure from the network with a brief statement: “Fox News has parted ways with Kimberly Guilfoyle,” a spokesperson for the cable network said at the time, per HuffPost.
But two years after her exit, The New Yorker reported that Fox News forced Guilfoyle out with several years remaining on her contract, following a months-long HR investigation into her behavior at the network.
According to the magazine, a young woman who worked as one of Guilfoyle’s assistants accused the TV host of repeated sexual harassment, and Fox News paid the woman upwards of $4 million in an out-of-court settlement.
A lawyer for Guilfoyle told The New Yorker in 2019 that any suggestion that Guilfoyle had engaged in misconduct during her time at Fox is “patently false.”
Now she’s been issued a subpoena after allegedly backing out of a voluntary interview.
In a statement, Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (D–Miss.), said the Jan. 6 committee’s subpoena of Guilfoyle came because she "backed out of her original commitment to provide a voluntary interview."
“Ms. Guilfoyle met with Donald Trump inside the White House, spoke at the rally that took place before the riot on January 6th, and apparently played a key role organizing and raising funds for that event. The Select Committee is seeking information from her about these and other matters,” Thompson added.
Now the committee is requiring Guilfoyle to produce the requested documents by March 15 and attend a deposition on March 15. In a letter to Guilfoyle, Thompson noted that the former Fox News star had produced “only 110 pages in response to 14 document requests” and had refused to proceed with a Feb. 25 interview because she "had not been previously informed that Select Committee Members could observe and participate."
