As a chorus of prominent Fox News women have gone public defending Roger Ailes against the wave of sexual-harassment allegations sparked by former Fox News host Gretchen Carlson’s lawsuit, the network’s biggest star, Megyn Kelly, has been conspicuously silent. Kelly’s refusal to join in Ailes’s orchestrated defense has led to speculation about why.
Now we have the answer. According to two sources briefed on parent company 21st Century Fox’s outside probe of the Fox News executive, led by New York–based law firm Paul, Weiss, Kelly has told investigators that Ailes made unwanted sexual advances toward her about ten years ago when she was a young correspondent at Fox. Kelly, according to the sources, has described her harassment by Ailes in detail.
Kelly’s comments to investigators might explain why the Murdochs are moving so quickly to oust Ailes.
I've been waiting for Megyn Kelly to add her name to the list.
And now that she has there is not doubt that Ailes is toast.
Personally I hope it does not stop with Ailes.
I have strong feeling that misogyny and sexual harassment are rampant at Fox News.
Remember Gretchen Carlson originally named Steve Doocey as well, and back in 2004 Bill O'Reilly settled a sexual harassment suit filed by his former producer, Andrea Mackris.
