Overview
- On July 21–22, Janice Dean posted on X after Andrew Cuomo’s Fox Business appearance, saying she was ‘‘grateful I’m not there’’ and that she is ‘‘free now.’'
- Dean wrote that she was ‘‘muzzled’’ at Fox and that she was banned from discussing Cuomo after years of criticizing his COVID-era nursing home policies.
- She officially retired from Fox News in late June after 22 years at the network and has been on leave and treating worsening multiple sclerosis since late 2025.
- Dean said Fox once prevented her from posting an article by her husband criticizing Cuomo in April 2025, and she called her treatment there a betrayal; those claims come from her posts and are not independently verified.
- Her promise to ‘‘tell many, many, many stories’’ could prompt new scrutiny of Fox’s editorial choices, but reporting so far treats the allegations as developing and notes no formal response from Fox.
