Fox News’ new religious channel may already be getting off on the wrong foot.
The day after the network announced it would be launching its new vertical “Fox Faith” with a flagship podcast series called The Life of Jesus podcast, Rolling Stone reported that the actors behind the biblical characters, including Frozen actress Kristen Bell, had no idea their work would be used on the conservative platform.
According to the report, Bell only found out that the audio work she’d done as Mary Magdalene for 2010’s The Truth and Life Dramatized Audio Bible was being reworked for Fox’s Jesus podcast a day before the network announced the project. She wasn’t told directly, however. Instead, Bell’s team was alerted to the podcast because she had been invited to appear on Fox & Friends to promote it
