Fox’s Julie Roginsky Sues Former Chair Roger Ailes for Sexual Harassment

HeadlineApr 04, 2017

Back in the United States, Fox News continues to be rocked by accusations of sexual harassment. On Monday, Fox News contributor Julie Roginsky sued former Fox Chair Roger Ailes for repeatedly sexually harassing her and then retaliating against her professionally after she rejected his unwanted advances. In the suit, Roginsky says Fox also pressured her to publicly support Ailes after he was accused of sexual harassment by former Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson. Roginsky said she refused, telling a colleague that Ailes was “a sexual predator and that she would not join in the smearing of Gretchen Carlson.”
