Fox News' Ailes Sued By Former Host For Sexual Harassment

Are we seeing the end of Fox News' domination of right wing politics. First it was Donald Trump who took on Fox News directly with his attacks on Megyn Kelly and boycotting a Fox News debate. Not only did he survive after those attacks but he actually went on to win the Republican nomination without much support from network at all. And now Gretchen Carlson, former co-host of "Fox & Friends", has filed suit stating that the network had a sexist culture and, more explosively, that Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes sexually harassed her, suggesting she would be better off if she had an affair with him. Ailes has been the driving force and power at the network since its founding. These explosive allegations may not effect the aging Fox viewership all that much, but you do have to wonder how advertisers will react if more details emerge. I wouldn't be surprised if you see a relatively quick out of court settlement as Fox probably won't want to risk the potential damage dragging this out would do. But then that largely depends on what Gretchen Carlson wants to do.
