Read previewDays before a Ukrainian family filed a lawsuit against Fox News over the death of their daughter, they received a letter from the network threatening retaliation.
Kuvshynova's family now says that Fox took unacceptable risks, including continuing the trip despite one of the company's security consultants vetoing it.
Compensation with a catchIn the aftermath of Kuvshynova's death, Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott contacted her father, Andriy, offering her condolences, the lawsuit says.
The family's lawsuit claims that Fox attempted to impose non-disclosure and non-disparagement agreements on all surviving family members.
In correspondence with Fox, seen by BI, Humphreys also argued that objectively sharing the details of Fox's actions around the time of Kuvshynova's death doesn't constitute disparagement.
