Eric Bolling, a longtime Fox News host, sent an unsolicited photo of male genitalia via text message to at least two colleagues at Fox Business and one colleague at Fox News, a dozen sources told HuffPost.
Recipients of the photo confirmed its contents to HuffPost, which is not revealing their identities. The women, who are Bolling’s current and former Fox colleagues, concluded the message was from him because they recognized his number from previous work-related and informal interactions. The messages were sent several years ago, on separate occasions.
The women did not solicit the messages, which they told colleagues were deeply upsetting and offensive. One of the recipients said that when she replied to Bolling via text, telling him never to send her such photos again, he did not respond. Four people, outside of the recipients, confirmed to HuffPost they’d seen the photo, and eight others said the recipients had spoken to them about it.
For this story, HuffPost spoke to 14 sources in and out of Fox News and Fox Business, all of whom spoke on the condition of anonymity either because they currently work at the networks and aren’t allowed to speak to members of the press without prior authorization or because they have confidentiality agreements with Fox News and its parent company 21st Century Fox.
Nothing about this surprises me in the least.
When I close my eyes and try to picture a sexual predator the first face I see is Eric Bolling's.
The guy exudes creepiness.
Of course that did not preclude him from also being a hypocrite:
Oh man I swear it seems that every Right Wing asshole uses Twitter to project their own failings onto other people.@anthonyweiner @Huma must be so proud of her man... @HillaryClinton too!! ;)— Eric Bolling (@ericbolling) September 22, 2014
And now it appears that Bolling is the latest Fox News pervert to get suspended.
Hah!Bolling's show "Cashin' In" taped Fri but pulled after HuffPost made Fox aware of allegations Bolling sent lewd texts to female colleagues— David Folkenflik (@davidfolkenflik) August 5, 2017
Now it is only a matter of time before Fox gives the old heave ho to Steve Doocy, Sean Hannity, and that little prick Jesse Watters.
