In the midst of an impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump, U.S. Attorney General William Barr reportedly met privately with billionaire media tycoon Rupert Murdoch at his home on Wednesday evening. The alleged secret meeting was first covered by The New York Times, which also noted that the subjects discussed between Barr and Murdoch — who is the chair of Fox News parent company News Corp — remain unclear, and it is likewise uncertain whether anyone else joined the two in the meeting.
An earlier report by Jo Ling Kent of NBC News, via her Twitter account, said that Smith had been “escorted” from the Fox News building in New York by security personnel, according to Kent’s sources. But in response to a statement by Fox News disputing her report, Kent deleted her original tweet, posting a second Twitter report stating that, “a Fox News spokesperson says it was not correct,” and that Smith’s departure was “planned and executed” by Smith himself.
