MSNBC reports Fox News hit with sexual harassment lawsuit
NEW YORK – The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission has filed a sexual harassment lawsuit in federal court against News Corp.’s Fox News Network LLC.
The complaint contends that Joe Chillemi, a Fox vice president who supervised its advertising and promotions departments, sexually harassed and subjected Weiler and other women to a hostile work environment, routinely using obscenities and vulgarities to describe women or their body parts.
Fox’s true colors are coming to light. I often wondered why the name ‘FOX NEWS’ as it is a bit odd, but after reading this definition of “fox” it kind of makes sense.
