A local news reporter for Fox 26 in Houston was fired after announcing on-air the company that owns the station has been “muzzling” her reporting and planned an expose with the help of Project Veritas.

Ivory Hecker, a general assignment reporter and fill-in anchor for the station, said she planned to release “behind the scenes” recordings about the Fox Corporation during a live broadcast on Monday. Project Veritas revealed on Tuesday that Hecker had been informed of her suspension from Fox 26, sharing a phone recording provided to the conservative activist group.
