Fox News Booker Sexually Harassed, ‘Psychologically Tortured’ by Roger Ailes for More Than 20 Years
New York Magazine ^

Posted on 07/29/2016 4:51:29 PM PDT by springwater13

Luhn put on the black garter and stockings she said Ailes had instructed her to buy; he called it her uniform. Ailes sat on a couch. “Go over there. Dance for me,” she recalled him saying. She hesitated. “Laurie, if you're gonna be my girl, my eyes and ears, if you are going to be someone I can depend on in Washington, my spy, come on, dance for me,” he said, according to her account. When she started dancing, Ailes got out a video camera. Luhn didn’t want to be filmed, she said, but Ailes was insistent: “I am gonna need you to do better than that.”

When she had finished dancing, Ailes told her to get down on her knees in front of him, she said, and put his hands on her temples. As she recalled, he began speaking to her slowly and authoritatively, as if he were some kind of Svengali: “Tell me you will do what I tell you to do, when I tell you to do it. At any time, at any place when I call. No matter where I call you, no matter where you are. Do you understand? You will follow orders. If I tell you to put on your uniform, what are you gonna do, Laurie? WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO, LAURIE?” Then, she recalled, his voice dropped to a whisper: “What are you, Laurie? Are you Roger's whore? Are you Roger's spy? Come over here.” Ailes asked her to perform oral sex, she said.

Later, Ailes showed her the footage of her dancing. She asked him what he intended to do with it and, she says, he replied, “I am going to put it in a safe-deposit box just so we understand each other.”

Should her job description begin with an H instead of a B?

I think that way too. I worked in one of the loosest settings for 10 years. Nightclubs. I was always treated well even by what I would call macho, a hole bosses. They KNEW I wouldn’t put up with their crap.

If you read the Starr Report, Bill had Monica do a bit more than has been publicized. Yes, more than the Cigar thingy.

You nailed it. There is a certain type of woman that simply has very very low esteem, despite seemingly having it all together to the world. And just like you say psychopaths can readily sniff them out. I’ve seen it happen again and again.

I’m sure he looks upon her as a full participant. He should sue her.

As a group, they have their strange sex lives that they’ve all agree to.

They should work it out in private.

Sorry, she wasn’t chained to her desk. People don’t voluntarily stick around for 20 years at a job where they are being “tortured”.

Good to know. I’ve always thought the same about racial slurs and bad language, too.

Reminds me of Hitchcock’s alleged harassment of Tippi Hedren.

Nope.
Doesn’t say Monica did the tossing. Just says tossing occurred.

Considering the nature of Bill’s grin- he did the tossing.
