Fox News Producer Arrested For Child Pornography
WASHINGTON (AP) ―
A Fox News Channel producer has been arrested and arraigned on child pornography charges in a federal courthouse in Washington.
Aaron Bruns appeared Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Washington. According to charging documents, investigators say Bruns had been sharing pornography on a social networking Web site.
A Fox News spokeswoman says they are aware of the arrest. She says Bruns was suspended Tuesday without pay.
Bruns covered Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign in 2008 and later was a general producer in Washington, covering politics.
A judge scheduled another hearing for Thursday, where he will consider whether to continue holding Bruns in jail.
