The O’Keefe Media Group on Tuesday released undercover video of a Fox News Media VP bragging about spending money at strip clubs and charging it to Fox Corporate cards.
Jason Hermes bragged to an undercover OMG journalist that he can just walk into a strip club and spend thousands of dollars on a Fox corporate credit card.
“You could take this [Fox Credit Card], walk into a strip club, literally, and spend $4,000…on Fox! Go into your corporate manager, and they would sign it and pay it off…it’s still like that.“We would just…lie on the [Fox] expense reports—no one’s gonna f***ing say a word to me,” he said.
“It’s the best job, because I’m a celebrity around all of it, but no one knows me. It’s like winning the lottery,” he said.
Per O’Keefe Media Group:
Jason Hermes, the Vice President of Content Sales and Partnerships for Fox Weather under Fox News Media, admitted to lying on the company’s expense reports and using company funds to cover strip club expenses.
Hermes was caught bragging to our undercover journalist that he oversees approximately $90 million worth of business a year for the company, which makes him “…a celebrity around all of it, but no one knows me.”
Lying on an expense report, such as disguising strip club charges, directly violates Fox Media’s Standards of Business Conduct, which require “accurate and complete” information.
These apparent false entries are rolled into budgets, audits, and corporate filings, making company disclosures misleading instead of “full, fair, and accurate.” Because Fox requires employees to record truthful data, Hermes is in clear violation of this policy, which can constitute financial misconduct.
These possible false expense reports made by Hermes may also violate the Federal U.S. Tax Code 274, which states that “no deduction shall be allowed for an activity generally considered to constitute entertainment, amusement, or recreation.”
