Fox News’ senior executives have said they were unaware of sexual-harassment allegations against Roger Ailes before former anchor Gretchen Carlson filed a lawsuit against him in July. But those claims are now being challenged by Fox host Andrea Tantaros, who says that she complained multiple times to senior Fox executives in 2015 about Ailes’s inappropriate sexual behavior toward her. Tantaros says that, after she came forward, she was first demoted and eventually taken off the air in April 2016. Fox continues to pay her.
Through her lawyer, Judd Burstein, Tantaros says that both she and her agent told Fox executive vice-president Bill Shine, senior vice-president Suzanne Scott, and general counsel Dianne Brandi about episodes of Ailes’s alleged harassment. “She made multiple harassment and hostile-workplace complaints,” Burstein says. As far as Tantaros knows, Fox executives never investigated her complaints, Burstein says; instead, they claim, Fox sidelined her. “I believe it’s retaliatory,” says Burstein.
Fox’s attorneys dispute this. The network says Tantaros was suspended with pay because she violated company policy by not allowing Fox to vet her 2016 book, Tied Up in Knots: How Getting What They Wanted Has Made Women Miserable. Fox attorneys told Burstein the network was embarrassed by her book’s cover, which depicts Tantaros bound by ropes.
Oh please, seeing Tantaros in bondage is probably the kind of thing that gets Ailes all hot and bothered.
At this point I would imagine that if you were a female at Fox News and were never sexual harassed by Roger Ailes you might be feeling a little insecure and left out.
"Wait, why did he sexual harass all of those women, but never even once looked down my top? I've got boobs!"
Perhaps THAT'S why a certain someone has remained mum on this topic.
When one's husband is a two-bit pimp, and father a perv, of course she's not going to say anything. "Boys will be boys."
ReplyDeleteNot to mention what Creepy Chuckie did to those girls.....
DeleteSarah will not speak out because Roger left a bad taste in her mouth ... literally.
ReplyDeleteHaHaHa! Too funny and almost certainly true. Look at that square jaw! Even if he thought she was attractive, "alpha males" like Ailes do NOT like screeching harpies.
ReplyDeleteShe's been keeping pretty mum on almost everything and it is blessed relief.Stay shut the fuck up you hillbilly harlot.
ReplyDeletePalin: Mr ailes ,I am so glad you hired me , to do the news? Wink wink .
ReplyDeleteCan I smack smack, do anything for you? Wink wink. Can I give you a fucking bj! then?
Ailes: Get the hell away from me skank! We hired your stupid ass only for entertainment value in our ratings! Go away regard!sheez
Too awkward with the strap on Belmonts, but then again I am sure she made do somehow.
ReplyDeleteFox's Peter Johnson Jr seems to have some issues with these ladies finally coming forward about The Pervert. Maybe a little 'jelly' Jabba didn't try to fuck you hunie?

OT?" We actually spoke to several sheriffs who said if it came to it, if they federal government came in and tried to impose certain kinds of gun control or seize guns from certain kinds of people, that they would expect to either die or end up in federal prison." the movement is particularly dangerous because this group, CSPOA, is one which gathers together people who have the power of life and death over the rest of us.""the idea of creating real conflicts, sometimes armed conflicts, among the CITIZENS of this country.""
DeleteSo-"a number of people occupied this wildlife refuge and demanded that the government release two particular ranchers who were being sent to prison for ARSON on public lands. " In talking to the many sheriffs that we did, basically what they reported to us was that they were being inundated by propaganda from the CSPOA and a related group, the Oathkeepers. So there is a very serious effort to spread this movement, which is in effect a kind of western rebellion against the central authority of the federal government in Washington."

ReplyDelete...and the bad wigs, arthritic knobbly fingers, the crepey neck, etc...
DeleteBe patient with Sarah. It takes time for a girl to figure out whose side she's on and then how to spin the news story to make it all about her.
ReplyDeleteBingo!
Deletethat's a good one!
DeleteEven with cheek implants, phony boobs, botox and fillers that disgusting fat blob didn't desire old quitty pants. Lolllll.
ReplyDeleteShe's too old, too smelly, too wrinkly and too screechy for Ailes.
DeleteMaybe Roger drew a line in the sand and since he could hire whom he wanted...cut the age off maybe at 36 years old. It is good to be King.
ReplyDeleteSkank won't say a thing about Ailes because Ailes knows all her secrets you betcha!
ReplyDeleteOf course the palin wouldn't have been harassed. Plain hangs all over. The only thing firm is the boob job and even that is a bad job since she didn't get cleavage.
ReplyDeleteOn fact, she just posted an old photo of herself in her US for palin FB page, with her arms all hanging like flap jacks and one arm totally creepy wrinkly:https://www.facebook.com/us4palin/photos/a.735847339779123.1073741828.735833003113890/1230297770334075/?type=3&theater
Must be sad in Palinville. Rejected by Trump and before that, Ailes. Of course the Big One was the total lack of attention paid to her by President Obama. No wonder she's so miserable. Once the darling of the right wing, she now pines away "too far away" for anyone but her pathetic few fans to care.
ReplyDeleteLooks good on her.

Okay - I will try to choose my words carefully, for, of course, sexual harrassment in the workplace is not acceptable. HOWEVER - I feel this is a woman who is perfectly happy using her sexuality when it benefits her: Notice the tight RED dress, with the slip peeking out from its short length??
ReplyDeleteSo, flame me if you will. No, I do not mean to shame the victim, and no, she did not "ask for it." But, she is already comfortable using a level of sexuality in her professional persona. Guess that is only okay when it works the way she wants...
LOL. I posted something similar below.
DeleteFox wants all of their female anchors to dress that way. That's part of the gig.
DeleteI am sorry, but it is hard for me to feel sorry for tantaros. She is one of those women who plays right into the hands of misogynists. She only speaks out when it affects her. What kind of bullshit book title is that? Another who got what she wanted and now is pulling up the ladder behind her.
ReplyDeleteOff with her head?

DeleteInsatiable. Info Info Info.
DeleteSexual harassment is never acceptable. Ailes is a creep and his ouster should've happened a looooooong time ago.
ReplyDeleteThat being said -
Flame me if you must, but when I look at this photo of Tantaros, I don't see a person who is selling her journalistic credentials. She is selling sex. Nothing wrong with that, but she probably ought to seek employment in another vocation where that is more appropriate.
Can journalists be sexy? Sure. But when one wears body con dresses and shows a lot of leg, I would say that person's prime objective isn't reporting the news.
Look at MEEEEEEEEEEEE!
Sarah Palin is cut from the same cloth.
Most of the women on FOX are exceptionally attractive. Their jobs required showing lots of leg and accenting their bodies. FOX has always sold sex - and stupidity.

What gets me upset is that in her many FB pages, she's making money off Olympians, especially the Black athletes. I REALLY doubt they want anything to do with her and to make money off of them.

And then she says "let me see again" and she's incredulous, but can't stop laughing and feeling sorry for her at the same time.

With Sarah being a narcissist and since hyper sexuality goes along with being a narcissist, I think they most likely had at it. But she's not going to speak up about it. In this case it would most likely be she went after him.
ReplyDeleteThe shame is that Andrea Tantaros wasn't cut because of her incredible nasty, mean-spirited commentary and lack of journalistic integrity. I feel this way about all these women at Fox- they capitalized on having a particular profile that Ailes liked, made lots of money pandering to that prototype and are now suing over it. I think sexual harassment is awful, but they were equal participants until the winds shifted. Ailes is despicable, it is plain to see, and so are these creepy women. I have not one, single ounce of caring in me for the people who have profited by making this country more divided, more hateful, and less informed. May they all spend the rest of their days suing and harassing each other. Caio, Fox creeps- I have refugees and hungry children to worry about. It was okay to go along with the old pervert when you were making money and you only brought up harassment after your golden goose was killed. Sounds like you all were in like company.
ReplyDeleteWas going to write a comment but you said it for me. Thanks.
DeleteI have no sympathy for this harpy. She spewed hate for a paycheck, and she's an huge asshole.
ReplyDeleteMy sentiments exactly!!!.
DeleteMethinks , that finally others are starting to see the Palin's for what they really are.
ReplyDeleteI can now breath somewhat easier!
Thank you Jessie and all IMers.

Anon 6:35, Betcha Sarah spit that stuff out.
What makes me say that?
Spitters are quitters and like us Alaskans learned the hard way, Governor Sarah is a Quitter and not a finisher.
Spitters are quitters:
Upon the deposit of a load in one's mouth, this term refers to those that spit it out rather than complete the job properly
You can tell by looking at that group of girls that they don't swallow-- spitters are quitters.
Dylan, Levi, Ben, Gino, Levi, Joey and Duhkota, is Sarah Palin's daughter a quitter?

Delete"More Swallows Means Less Storks"
If only her muthah taught her that, there'd be (number unknown) less bastard palin babies from her. If she gave blowjobs, she might ruin her Chinstrap and have to have repairs done and go thru that bloaty face look all over again.
I think she is keeping quiet because she ASKED to suck his dick for a job at Fux news.
ReplyDeleteFace it - daddy diddled her and she is so sick an twisted that selling herself to gain perceived power is all she knows.
Many a PhD will be earned studying this chick.
EWW! but I bet you're right.
DeleteI think now we know why she demanded a studio be built for her private use in her home in Alaska. So she'd be as far away from Ailes as possible.
ReplyDeleteHow do you know she is the one that demanded the studio be built?
DeleteMaybe Ailes wanted her far away.
Could be the studio was used for making some porn videos, maybe the Russian porn star was using it after hours.
http://www.salon.com/2010/02/23/palin_fox_studio/
DeletePalin is mum about it because it never occurred to her that it was anything but normal, desirable in fact, to get fucked by your boss. She's probably shocked and dumbstruck to learn that other women just don't whore around like she does (and teaches her daughters to do the same).
ReplyDeleteThis is a classic example of when the victim($kanky) of incestuous child sex abuse (by creepy Chucky) grows up and doesn't get some therapy.
DeleteOne look at that photo and it's more than obvious how Tantaros got her job...
ReplyDeleteAiles probably did Sarah early on when the picture of dorian grey showed a well put together "hottest Governor from the coldest state", I know sexual harassment is a serious issue, but let's be serious, folks. We're talking about FOX news, an entertainment channel This lady doesn't have a clue how to get ahead at Fox? Why is she posing on set in a provocative outfit and high heels? Do they have privacy screens on the desks of female employees? There's a reason they don't.
ReplyDeleteNot that I'm against them winning lawsuits, but do these women not see how the company works?
Sarah Palin endorsed another LOSER Paul Nehlen, who received 15% of the votes. You sure know how to pick winners, Sarah. Bwahahahaha, who is next, Dakota?
ReplyDeleteIsn't Tantaros the one Ailes called "The Leg"?
ReplyDeleteHer cankles are almost as tree-thick as Barstool's!
