Nah.

Well, we can't seriously believe that only FOX should be sued for lack of diversity.

By hiring Bob Beckel, Fox covered themselves for the mentally disabled group, and Shep's employment should have them covered for the LGBTQ group.

People who think this is Fox News Thing are very naïve. If it’s happening at one network, it’s happening at all of them.

Of course

The issues at Fox are clearly not concocted; one does not pay $13 million dollars for claims that do not have merit.

The issues with Ailes are not made up either.

Most of us work in companies that would not tolerate 2% of that type of behavior before being asked to leave. I know my company doesn’t have $13 million to make anyone go away.

The good news is that these are cautionary tales to every person who has dirty old men working for them in an environment more akin to a 1970’s prep school than a 2017 news room.

BOR’s payouts are a drop in the bucket compared to the revenue (up to a billion with a ‘b’ over the years) he brought in, and the payouts began over a decade ago. FNC is going Left regardless.

I’d sure bet the atmosphere at ABC/CBS/NBC is far, far worse than at FNC.

Interesting. Does he hint whether these legal problems are sexual harassment, or “diversity” issues? Or something else..

I agree with you, this is exactly how I see it too with Kelly Wright. I have not enjoyed watching him whenever he was on TV, there is no “personality”, kind of boring and aloof. As an aside, I have always thought he was on the liberal side.

On the subject of race: Now, if you’re talking Lauren Green, well that gal has it all: personality, looks and charm with a sense of humor and intelligence.

“The women, now African Americans, all playing the minority card, ...”


Try to avoid this by hiring promarily white men, you get sued for that, too.

He strongly hinted they were sexual-harassment-type problems, because he made a point of making his assertion as he discussed the problems of Bill O'Reilly.

His remarks took the form of a very pointed warning to the effect that those who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, although those were not his exact words.

More like "do you really want to go there CNN, and you other networks... do you really want to go there? You at CNN.... you know exactly what I'm talking about."

Kelly should be doing local reports about Consumer Affairs, unexpired car warranties not being honored,
gigantic pot-holes left unfilled in the Town Square and the like. That’s a service too, just not in the magnitude of Fox News.

You forgot to mention the potty mouthed women on FOX that offend Huckabee.

And you have seen the complaints? Because a news director telling a woman that they would have to “work closely” for them to get ahead I not an uncommon occurrence.

It is a filthy business.

Huh. Now I’m curious! Nothing much would surprise us anymore. But I can still be shocked.

So many secrets and without non-disclosure agreements threatening no more $$$ we’d know a lot more.

Thanks for replying:)

Kelly Wright?

Now I’m confused...

1OldPro posted that it a black guy on FOX, which is a broadcast channel I only watch if it airs a football game.

zerosix named K. Wright, who is on FNC, which has many black on-air employees and paid contributors.

The only times I’ve seen Kelly Wright is during short news breaks in the wee hours of the a.m. on FNC and when he was on Huckabee’s program a couple of times where he sang songs.

Kelly Wright was the FNC on air personality mentioned in an earlier article that I read.

Did you think it was someone else?
