A number of other media outlets are reporting it as well.

Good if the allegations are true.

Megyn Kelly seem to be the deciding factor. I think her career on fox is pretty much over after this

Ann Coulter says she's has also heard the stories of Ailes sexually harassing female employees.

Coulter calls out Megyn Kelly because Kelly defended Ailes while Ailes was Fox News head but now that Ailes is out Kelly has done a 180 and says Ailes harassed her too.

" Network anchor Megyn Kelly told investigators looking into sexual harassment accusations made by former “Fox & Friends” host Gretchen Carlson that Ailes had harassed her as well, according to a New York magazine report published Tuesday. "

But .....Kelly had this to say recently

' Coulter also took a jab at Kelly who, so far, has publicly been silent on the recent allegations from Carlson and a half dozen other women. Last fall, Kelly described Ailes as a “mentor” who has been “nothing but good to me, and he’s been very loyal and he’s had my back.” '

Ann Coulter rips Megyn Kelly

“I guess she waited for him to be out before she spoke up,” Coulter said, adding that it was “very brave of Megyn to wait until the last moment.”

They'll consult the RNC and find a replacement.

Much the opposite, she's now the most powerful person associated with the network.

I don't get why people keep saying Megyn Kelly is done after this .wtf are you even talking about. On what basis? I really hate her, but I just dont get your thought process.

 

[Diamond Jim]

Fox made it official today. Wonder if he takes a role in the Trump campaign.

Fox News hires attractive women to serve as props, so it isn't a surprise that Ailes viewed them as props.

The role of the attractive women on Fox is to be submissive to their male colleagues or their male guests if and only if those males are conservatives. If the males are liberal the women undercut them and attack them. It is a truly wonderful strategy from a propaganda standpoint because it serves to validate the self-perceptions of aging conservatives that are increasingly uncomfortable with change and simultaneously dealing with their own declining sexual virility.

If you don't believe me watch the interactions Carlson and Kelly have with conservative versus liberal guests. Both are very intelligent but demure to men regularly, Carlson in particular was just a prop on the morning show until a liberal was being addressed.

Working with women is just so fucking risky. Piss them off and they'll all accuse you of whatever.

Fox has been unbearable for a while but their female hosts and guests were particularly bad. For all the reasons you already mentioned. It became too blatant that they were picked for their looks and were expected to applaud anything the male hosts said (despite many of them having solid backgrounds prior to joining Fox).

It was the news version of cheerleaders.

Personally I'd find it insulting to be hired as a journalist and then find out I'm supposed to be an actor playing a bimbo.
C.R.E.A.M.

They spoke about this on Howard Stern radio this week.

Supposedly a former female employee said Ailes pulled out his balls and they were red and looked like hamburger meat.

That outnumbered show must have a rule that skirts can go no lower that your upper thigh.

What type of world are we living in where a man can build a startup gimmick news channel into a worldwide powerhouse and still be taken down by some skooze that doesnt know how to take a compliment
