BUSTED: Fox News paid Heather Nauert $167,000 -- while she was a Trump administration spokesperson

Former Fox News anchor Heather Nauert was paid by the network while serving as a top spokesperson for Trump administration.

The revelations were made in a financial disclosure form obtained by the good-government group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW).

“She reported receiving $167,000 from 21st Century Fox, which she characterized as “Salary,” in Part 2 of her termination report. Part 2 covered the period from January 1, 2018, eight months after she entered government, to March 31, 2019, the date she left the State Department,” CREW reported.

There may be ethical issues with the arrangement.

And I am hoping that there is someone in government somewhere who might actually do something about this.

Isn't there a patriotic unicorn around here somewhere?
