Longtime investigative reporter Arnold Diaz, along with his beloved "Shame Shame Shame" series, will no longer be a part of the Fox family, as the network has reportedly eliminated its consumer investigative unit.
Diaz has won 44 Emmys throughout his career—before Fox he was at WCBS (where his "Shame On You" series ran), and ABC's 20/20. In total he's been exposing and shaming scammers, government agencies, racist bakers, ice cream shops, Martha Stewart, and whoever else he thought deserved it for about 30 years.
TVSpy got confirmation from a spokesperson at Fox, and a source told them "the layoffs are part of a reorganization rather than a cost cutting move with plans to hire in the near future. The same sources [says] investigative reports will no longer come just from specialized units at the station." However, VP of WNYW wants "to thank him for his many contributions to FOX 5."
