A local Fox 26 host in Houston, Texas named Ivory Hecker attracted national attention earlier this week when she announced on air that the right-wing activist group Project Veritas was about to expose how her network had "muzzled" her — a stunt for which she was swiftly fired.

But the actual report revealed that the network had stopped her from promoting unsubstantiated claims about hydroxychloroquine to treat COVID-19, an anti-malarial drug backed by an infamous doctor who believes people are being sickened by sex with demons.

Even the conservative network Newsmax, after inviting her on, appeared to be doubtful about Hecker's exposé.

1. Well done, Ivory

You played yourself like a Steinway.

2. She got a few hundred bucks from Veritas,

and got her name in the news, so, from her perspective, Mission Accomplished.
