Federal prosecutors may be investigating Fox News Channel’s parent company for not reporting settlements related to sexual harassment cases to the Securities and Exchange Commission, an attorney representing a former Fox News host said in open court on Wednesday.
The lawyer, Judd Burstein, said that he had received a federal grand jury subpoena from the office of Preet Bharara, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, according to a report in The Hollywood Reporter.
