Phillip Perea, a former promotion producer at Fox News, shot and killed himself out front of the company\u2019s building in Manhattan on Monday morning.<\/p>\n
The former employee was the victim of highly publicized bullying from management at the company, which ultimately resulted in the loss of his job. It has also been speculated by many that that he was railroaded out of his position because a local police officer was not happy with how a police brutality story was covered.<\/p>\n
Perea then experienced intense bullying from management at Fox, and when things got really bad, he actually recorded some\u00a0of the conversations and later posted them on YouTube. The videos, which were titled \u201cThe American Workplace Bully: How FOX News Ended My Career\u201d even featured a recording from the moment he was fired.<\/p>\n
His last video was posted on the morning of his death, and in it he said \u201cthere can be no righteous cause without a sacrifice.\u201d<\/p>\n
Earlier in the week, Perea posted a photo to twiiter which had a nearly empty wallet, filled with only a few dollars. The caption for the photo read: \u201cCongratulations FOX, this is all the money I have left to my name, $104.\u201d<\/p>\n
It was reported that he shot himself outside of the New York offices around 9am, just after handing onlookers flyers about how Fox \u201cended his career.\u201d<\/p>\n
After the incident he was rushed to Bellevue Hospital Center, where he was pronounced dead about an hour later, according to police.<\/p>\n
Perea was 41 years old.<\/p>\n
