There was an OAN producer who was fired after revealing his coworkers didn't believe Trump's Big Lie, but they repeated it on the network anyway.

Golingan had been a producer at OAN since 2016 and told the New York Times that the outlet had changed in recent years and moved further right during the Trump Administration. He recalled seeing a photo from the Capitol insurrection where someone held a flag with the OAN logo and admitted he worried that his work might have helped inspire the mob. The former producer also confessed that he and most of his colleagues did not believe the voter fraud claims peddled by the news channel.
