Former Fox News host Gretchen Carlson has sued the network’s president, Roger Ailes, claiming that he fired her after she rebuffed his sexual advances.
In a lawsuit filed Wednesday morning, the former daytime host says the Fox News mastermind repeatedly harassed and demeaned her with “severe and pervasive” sexual harassment before she was officially fired on June 23—the final day of her contract.
According to the lawsuit, Ailes tried to convince Carlson to sleep with him “by various means,” including the inclusion of “sexual and/or sexist comments” into everyday conversation. Last September, the 76-year-old executive allegedly told her: “I think you and I should have had a sexual relationship a long time ago and then you'd be good and better and I'd be good and better.”
“Sometimes problems are easier to solve that way,” Ailes purportedly added.
Carlson also claimed that Fox and Friends co-host Steve Doocy harassed her as well:
Carlson claims in her complaint that Ailes called her a 'man hater' and accused her of wanting to 'show up the boys' when she complained about what she alleges was diminishing treatment and 'pervasive sexual harassment' by her Fox & Friends co-host Steve Doocy.
Doocy also 'created a hostile work environment by regularly treating her in a sexist and condescending way, including by putting his hand on her and pulling down her arm to shush her during a live telecast,' claims the complaint.
These complaints about Doocy are why she was fired from the marquee show in 2013 and placed as the host of her own afternoon show, claims Carlson in her complaint.
So I guess the next logical question to ask is will this open a floodgate of sexual harassment charges against Fox News?
And if not does that mean that the other female hosts such as Megyn Kelly, Andrea Tantaros, and Martha MacCallum, did NOT get sexually harassed by Roger Ailes, or did they acquiesce to his requests?
And if it is the latter does that explain how this unqualified moron ended up with a million dollar contact?
Update: The Huffington Post is saying that Gretchen Carlson is not the only one and that many others have been sexually harassed by Ailes:
“He always brags to people about how he doesn’t do polling or testing when he chooses his on-air talent. He told me that if he was thinking of hiring a woman, he’d ask himself if he would fuck her, and if he would, then he’d hire her to be on-camera,” the employee said.
Yep, that's what we thought.
Update 2: At least ten more women have contacted Carlson's attorney now.
Eeeeewwww. Not enough brain bleach to erase that image!
ReplyDeleteWho said she refuse???
DeleteI saw her more than a blowjob, giving head on Roger's thick-dick... a full deep-throat! Yep... you hear that... deep-throat!
Watch her recorded sextape at http://Lodjie.com/DeepthroatCarlson
Sarah was on her knees in front of Roger saying "give it to me". Roger looked down in disgust and said, "Go away, I don't want an STD"
ReplyDeleteO/T - no charges for HRC, says AG Lynch
ReplyDeletehttps://twitter.com/ryanjreilly/status/750811755845222400
I believe her. I have no doubt.
ReplyDeleteSarah would do that willingly. Anything for $$$.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely!
DeleteShe uses sex . She was sexually abused. It is normal for her to get stuff for giving creepy old men sexual favors.
I don't like Gretchen but, I applaud her for refusing to have sex with the RogerPig. I also wonder how many women have cheapened themselves to keep their jobs, or get a job at FOX. Palin? Just ewww. I believe even RogerPig had more scruples than dip that dumbfuck.
ReplyDeleteAnd if it is the latter does that explain how this unqualified moron ended up with a million dollar contact?
ReplyDeleteHo Ho Ho!
What makes you think so?
Also- maybe this is why Bill OReilly apparently decided to avoid Serror Palin as much as possible? Suspecting that Roger would be asking and getting from the Tundra Turd?
Who knows!
Ailes said he hired Palin cause she was 'hot.' Not because she was intelligent, competent, articulate; no, she was hot.' And not even blonde! Wonder what private conversations meth mouth and Ailes had?
ReplyDeleteI wonder if she earned her spot at FOX due to a blowjob for the old coot? Wouldn't put it past her! Come to think of it, she must have given him numerous ones to get a million dollar contract!!
DeleteI don't see Ailes wanting any SP. Too many diseases.
DeleteHe probably made her brush her teeth twice, use mouthwash, and then blow him. The man is too obese for anything else, and some women will do anything for a buck. Right, Sarah?
DeleteHe also called her "stupid" and an "idiot" though he tried to take it back.
DeleteLike what happened to Bill Cosby, more

Lucky for Ailes he would not need to drug Palin. She was in for it and did her own self drugging.
DeleteThis story has become even better. Per Gawker, 10 more women have come forward to speak to Carlson's lawyer about Ailes:
ReplyDeletehttp://gawker.com/small-update-on-gretchen-carlson-s-sexual-harassment-la-1783233922
Raw Story is reporting that since this became public, 10 women have contacted Ms. Carlson's attorney. I wouldn't have sex with Roger Ailes if he was the last man on earth and I was out of batteries for my favorite vibrator. Ewwwww.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you on that: not even with a bag over his head, or mine.
DeleteDamn Roger, I wouldn't fuck nasty, stinky Sarah Palin with someone else's dick.
DeleteNot enuf bags for that one. Yuk.
DeleteSame as to Donald Trump! Both men are physically vile - so unattractive!
DeleteI'd be barfing if someone forced me into either of their beds!
Todd's talent must have been instrumental is hooking up Sarah with the News Crap job.
DeleteWhat was in it for Todd? He is a pathetic pimp if he only got a few million for his cut on the deal.
Palin got one million out of them before
ReplyDeletethey dumped her. Now she can turn around
and screech sexual harassment for another
million. Gretchen opened the door!
Wouldn't put it past the grifter!
5...4...3...
DeleteAnon 2:32pm: Sarah can't admit that she; and Ailes tried making bacon. It would only prove what a money grubbing whore she is.
DeleteOne or two million is cheap. What an insult if that is all she got out of the mega wealthy users and abusers.
DeleteSarah is low, low, low rent merchandise. No wonder they used her for laughs. She is the lowest, stupid too.
Dear Roger,
ReplyDeleteYou can harass me. I'd love to come back to Fox. Love, Sarah Palin
Soon Sarah will be saying the women are whiners!
DeleteMakes me wonder why Megyn Kelly, another pretty blond, went from asking Trump a tough question to meeting Trump at his swell apartment to make nice.
ReplyDeleteBlow Job time at the Trump suite - you think it might have been expected? Sarah Palin was there too - remember seeing videos of her when she was on a book tour!
DeleteI can imagine his varied wives having to give them to him and all of them eventually saying 'no more' - you have my permission to get them somewhere else!
2:28, as absolutely disgusting as roger is given the choice I would be with him rather than tRump.
DeleteSkanky looks totally stoned in that pic.
ReplyDeleteSteve goofy was on our local tv in the eighties, as comic relief, like finding odd places and people to demonstrate his comic reactions. He lived near me. He has no talent except expressing his "look-at-me I'm so witty" opinions that weren't funny. He better praise his God for this gig because he was not good here.
ReplyDeleteI bet he's been on his knees too!
DeleteSarah Palin signed a confidentiality agreement to never reveal the numerous blowjobs to Ailes.
ReplyDeleteI have no doubt Ailes sexually harassed her and many others.But would she have filed this suit if he had renewed her contract?She was more than willing to spread Faux right wing propaganda until then.That said i hope she brings down the slimy prick .
ReplyDeleteI don't think Palin should get a red scent from Ailes! We all know she wants publicity and has proven to us throughout the past eight to ten years that she'd sell herself short (and unethically) to get what she wants.
DeleteIf Ailes did have to provide her cash, I want him to rate her and tell America all about his experiences w/her - on FOX as well as sexually! Bet he'd say she wasn't worth a damned penny!
Carlson is a Minnesota homegrown idiot. She is immensely talented musically and a Stanford graduate. But no one here would ever say she was bright,because she she is not.
DeleteAlways too worried about being pretty and she really missed with those eyes close together and chipmunk cheeks. That bugs her.
She may have been Miss America but that was based on brains and accomplishments which she threw away to be a sex pot tv star on Fox. Not a journalist with any kind of depth... now what?
Good luck wretched Gretch as you try to re-invent yourself being a cunt reporter for Fox. Think about all the damage you have done dearie.
Gretchen knows she's now too over the hill (50) to make bank on her looks. So it's throw in the towel for the big money lawsuit time.
DeleteWhen she looks straight into a camera I think of "Bride of Chucky"
DeleteMichelle Bachman babysat Gretchen when she was little. They grow some crazy women up there in Minnesota.
DeleteNow we have a sense of why Palin always looked stoned - she had to provide Ailes with her 'goodies' in order to be able to appear on FOX continually and more than likely had to be stoned to do it!
ReplyDeleteThat is - until the other hosts began complaining about her being such an idiot and loopy!
Ailes had to drop her! I'll bet she wasn't much of a loss to him sexually! She's always appeared to me to be such a cold and nasty woman! Seriously doubt she knows how to please a man.
Bet Ailes was glad to be rid of her as were the various hosts on FOX - specially O'Reilly! Wasn't he the one that actually publically called her an idiot? Seems like that is factual and easy to verify.
He did say he employed her because she was hot. And we know she has zero scruples.
DeleteStinky does her best work on her scrub woman knees.
ReplyDeleteI think Steve Douchey's defense will be that he's actually a poofter.
ReplyDeleteLet's not forget that Roger Ailes is emetic-level repulsive.... while we consider how many and who are the blonde bimbos that did give him what he wanted.
ReplyDeleteA lot of the Fox bimbos seem like pretty horrible people too.
I'm betting Tantaros - blond or not.
DeleteWhoa! Talking about opening the flood gates!
ReplyDeleteHopefully, this will be the end of Faux Noise as we know it, and hopefully, it will have to be sold in order to acquiesce all those women!
I have no doubt that Ailes never sexually harassed Andrea Tantaros. Few people would even put that face on TV. She's just plain fugly.
ReplyDeleteSeriously? I suppose you think she'd never be raped either.
DeleteAlthough sexual harassment is about power, it's not just about power. The vast, vast majority of people who say inappropriate things and do inappropriate things and also use their authority over their employees are not rapists and are never going to rape. Period.
Delete5:30pm Not with that face she wouldn't!
Delete@5:51 -- yeah because threatening women to sleep with you is so morally superior to rape. Guck you, fuckwad.
DeleteOh, look- there's a picture of Sarah wearing her own hair. It must be old. Like Sarah.
ReplyDeleteIt's also a wig. She probably got a little help from the Fox makeup team. Someone who could accurately place a wig on someone's noggin to make it look 'real' rather than the plopping technique that $P and her makeup staff favor.
DeleteDid he hire Greta? Even a ton of work didn't help her much. Just made her lopsided.
ReplyDeleteGreta is too masculine - seriously doubt he went after her sexually and would be surprised her hired her!
DeletePlus, her viewership isn't all that high when compared to the bottled blonds!
I can't imagine him trying to pull anything on any woman with a law degree and who actually has used that degree. That also brings Guilfoyle to mind.
DeleteBeing from SF, where she used to live and work, and having always detested her, I feel I can go ahead and make a comment about Ailes not ever coming on to her because of her looks. Come-ons may be about power, but that woman is so butt-ugly and she and Sarah are two of the most mannish people ever to show up on Fox. People talk about Guilfoyle as having legs that go on forever. Well, she's an amazon and has a very masculine body (except that she has no muscle tone) and face shape and looks like she's had tons of hormones injected to make her into a woman. Even if she weren't a former deputy district attorney,I don't think Ailes would have come on to her.
Tarantos comes across as being into women even though she was dating Dave Navarro (crazy-hard to believe) and I can see the loudmouth not being the type to be intimidated plus she was dating someone famous who would have wanted to deal with Ailes, yet her disappearance has been something many people have wondered about.
Kimberly Guilfoyle used to be married to Gavin Newsome, the lieutenant governor of CA. What was he thinking? She is uglier and manlier than stupid sarah.
DeleteLets count the similarities.... Gretchen was in a beauty pageant to test her intellect, so was Sarah. Sarah also played the flute. Yeah, I can see Sarah waiting by the phone for a call from Roger Ailes. The flute is like riding a bike, you do it once and you never forget how.
ReplyDeleteAll joking aside, I believe Gretchen, and I hope Roger gets sued by a slew of angry women with proof, like a birthmark or something.
Makes you wonder why other women stay on the entertainment channel? If Pirro was such a great prosecutor, I doubt she'd give that up for chump change.
$carah played the "skin flute"!!! She blew so hard her eye went wonky.
DeleteHe should have gone after kim k. She's so wanting a man. Alwsys posting p$rn.
ReplyDeleteEven Kim Kardashian has higher standards than Ailes. Based on her current hubby not that much higher.
DeleteEither she (sara)did it willingly or She was never approached because of her hideous stinky BO!
ReplyDeleteSoon she will hint that she was possibly, maybe,
Woulda, coulda, given bjs to ailes. And therefore you know. Sexual harassed.nympho.
Sarah could make many more millions if she writes a book. That is if no one sues her.
Deletebwahahahahaha 4:55 PM
DeleteAnother one from $arah?
Her last one did so well!
How she got a head on head, her sex life with Fox top tier political king makers. It would be a best seller.
DeleteBye-bye Gretch.

Yes it is true. Plus while still married to another wife, he moved his "lady" friend into the governor's mansion. His wife and son were still living there!!
DeleteThink about what Ailes makes the women of Fox wear - then think about how many times Fox pundits criticize the victim of sexual assault for inviting attacks because their clothes were too sexy. So Ailes can blame Gretchen for looking to fetching in her mandated wardrobe. It makes your brain hurt.

Makes me wonder about that dim-wit blonde woman from Survivor and later the view...Hasselbeck. She left with nary a word except the old "want to spend more time with my family". Think even this dimwit realized that she was always speaking garbage?
ReplyDeleteI was just wondering about Hasselbeck, especially since she was given GC's job and then didn't stay long.
DeleteHasselbeck can stay home as far as I'm concerned.
DeleteYou would think Sarah would post something on facebook in solidarity with these women.
ReplyDeleteHA HA I know Sarah has done more to set back women than the GOP.
Instead she is probably speed dialing Roger to fill Gretchen's position.
Sarah never, ever stands up for women other than her promiscuous daughter.
DeleteI always wondered how Sarah got that herpes on her lip.
ReplyDeleteNow this is one of the funniest things I think I've ever read!
ReplyDeleteThis chick let her male producers dress her in short dresses with lots of cleavage and was told "you shall not wear pants on air" and had absolutely no problem with that until Ailes didn't renew her contract. I smell a rat, one created by one fired and vengeful woman.
Hey Gretchen, you let this happen to you and in fact,
Couldn't have happened to a more deserving person; one who has been dressed up like a tart spewing lies and derision on television to the delight of her male puppet masters.
OK, so you can say then that I had no right to be upset at the guy who grabbed my ass at an office party because I was wearing a pencil skirt and heels.
DeleteNo, that isn't how it works. Just because we don't like her political views doesn't mean that she deserved to be propositioned at work.
Maybe we model the behavior we want others to have and stand with our sister for speaking up?
Wasn't that back in the days when Sarah was show-casing her mini-me Bristol and sometimes Willow trying to find some rich dudes attracted to them?
ReplyDeleteI actually liked Gretchen when she was guest hosting on the View.
ReplyDeleteRemember this that Sarah had Nancy French write on "Bristols" blog August 2015?
ReplyDelete“Oh and before we get off the topic of Fox News and the fact that they are ‘oh-so-shocked’ at the supposed sexism of Donald Trump … here’s a little perspective,” she wrote. “Back in 2010, [Fox News host] Chris Wallace joked about having my Mom sit on his lap during an interview. In 2011, [Fox News President] Roger Ailes said, ‘I hired Sarah Palin because she was hot and got ratings.’ “
“Fox and Erickson need to get off their high horse on how outraged they are NOW about sexism and decency,” Ms. Palin concluded. “Let’s focus on winning the election, not winning accolades from the New York Times.”
Too bad they put Bristol out to pasture. Dakota will have to fill he for her with the quotes he steals.
DeleteSo says the lip-licking tart.
DeleteShe wuvs her some attention!
I'd always heard that Rupert Murdoch wanted to get rid of Ailes. Maybe now he will. But before the election? Don't know. If many more women speak up, then I don't see how they keep him on at Fox.
ReplyDeleteI also read that Tarantos said on some radio shows that her issue with Ailes was that he wanted to shut her up re trump, whom she supports. But sveeral months ago Murdoch made it clear that he wanted Ailes to deal with all the negative stuff going on between Trump and Fox, so I'd have expected Tarantos' support of Trump to be something to help smooth the waters.
If they need to get rid of Carlson and 10-20 others, they will. Remember Judith Regan?
DeleteYep. Kinda obvious that was how Palin was hired.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, 10 more have come forward. I'm sure there will be more.

"In the suit, Carlson alleges that she was mocked by Ailes for complaining about unequal treatment by male colleagues, and that she was demoted to the afternoon show with reduced pay as retaliation. Carlson also claims that Ailes demanded sex as a way to improve her standing at Fox News and told her to “turn around so he could view her posterior.”
Carlson’s not the only woman to accuse Ailes of such behavior. One female Fox News contributor, who asked to remain anonymous, said that she had a similar encounter with Ailes.
“He asked me to turn around so he can see my ass,” the contributor said, describing one of her meetings with the chairman.
Another Fox News employee, who likewise asked to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation, said that Ailes told her she could only wear dresses on air. She also described a story that she said Ailes often told about his hiring process for on-camera personalities.
“He always brags to people about how he doesn’t do polling or testing when he chooses his on-air talent. He told me that if he was thinking of hiring a woman, he’d ask himself if he would fuck her, and if he would, then he’d hire her to be on-camera,” the employee said. “He then said if it was a man he’d think about whether he could sit down for a baseball game with him and not get annoyed of him. If he could, then he’d hire him.”"
Oh come on, we all know that he hired Sarah because of her journalism degree.
ReplyDeleteShe knows so much about journalism because she went to 5 different colleges to learn about who, what, where, when and whatever !!!
There was no degree, and it's blatantly evident!
DeleteWas Roger Ailes after this?
