“Fox News officially announced on Tuesday that it has hired former Trump spokeswoman Kayleigh McEnany as a contributor. The addition of a known and frequent liar to the Fox News roster set off some alarms within a newsroom that has been ‘purged’ in recent months in favor of right-wing opinion programming and content geared towards keeping a diehard MAGA audience satisfied. ‘It’s truly disgusting they fired hard-working journalists who did care about facts and news reporting only to turn around and hire a mini-Goebbels whose incessant lies from the White House helped incite an insurrection on our democracy that got five people killed, including a police officer,’ a Fox News insider raged to The Daily Beast. ‘Post-Trump Fox is quickly becoming a very scary place and quite dangerous for our democracy. It’s not even conservative news anymore. They’ve plunged into an alternate reality where extremist propaganda is the only course on the menu.'”

“‘It’s upsetting,’ a current Fox News staffer lamented to The Daily Beast. ‘So many good people are out of a job now and I’m sure she’ll get a huge contract.’ But the hiring makes sense, this employee said, because ‘Sarah Sanders just left to run for governor of Arkansas and our audience loves Kayleigh.’ Another newsroom staffer said of McEnany’s hiring: ‘It bothers me in that it is basically a slap in the face to the hardworking journalists that value real news and facts. But it also doesn’t surprise me because they have shown that they don’t give a damn about facts and real news.’ A third Fox News employee further railed against the hiring, saying, ‘There is no objectivity in this business anymore. It’s a self-serving profiteering enterprise.’ McEnany clearly appeals to Fox, this staffer said, because of ‘name recognition, notoriety, an obvious willingness to say anything her employer desires. The viewers are morons'” – Daily Beast.
