Fox News Rejects James Comer's Claim of Retaliatory Coverage by Doocy Family

The network calls the House Oversight Chair's allegations of biased reporting tied to a run-in with Steve Doocy's FBI-employed daughter 'off base' and 'insulting.'

  • James Comer, in his new book 'All the President’s Money,' alleges negative Fox News coverage stemmed from a conflict with Steve Doocy’s daughter, Mary Doocy, an FBI assistant general counsel.
  • Comer claims his rejection of a heavily redacted FBI document led to Mary Doocy being upset, which he suggests prompted critical reporting from her father, Steve Doocy, and brother, Peter Doocy.
  • Fox News issued a statement denying the allegations, asserting that Steve and Peter Doocy were unaware of the incident until excerpts of the book were published.
  • The network described Comer's assertions as 'off base' and emphasized the ethical standards of the Doocy family.
  • Comer’s allegations come as he faces scrutiny for his Biden investigation, which concluded without evidence of criminal wrongdoing.
