Gretchen Carlson is fighting against nondisclosure agreements — her own and anyone else's — in a new initiative with fellow Fox alumna Julie Roginsky
"Lift Our Voices" aims to fight corporate cover-ups of workplace abuses.
Three and a half years later, Carlson is fighting against nondisclosure agreements — her own and anyone else's — in a new initiative she's launching with fellow Fox alumna Julie Roginsky., devoted to stopping companies from using NDAs to cover up incidents of workplace harassment and discrimination. Carlson and Roginsky say they will be asking industry and political leaders to pledge to eradicate NDAs for these purposes in their workplaces.
Carlson and Roginsky, a Democratic strategist and former Fox contributor who settled a sexual harassment suit with the network in 2017, both asked Fox to release them from their own NDAs in October, as did their fellow former Fox News colleague Diana Falzone, who will serve on the board of Lift Our Voices. The network has yet to respond to the women.
Workers in Hollywood, Roginsky says, are particularly vulnerable to NDAs being abused, because the agreements are so prevalent in the entertainment industry. "It's actors, it's grips, it's craft service people, who all sign NDAs because they understand they're promising not to give away details about the script or the production," Roginsky says.
