8:55Now PlayingTwo big developments in the Fox News sexual harassment scandal: Roger Ailes is leaving the company, and Megyn Kelly has told investigators that he sexually harassed her too. Cenk Uygur, Ben Mankiewicz (What The Flick?), John Iadarola (ThinkTank), and Michael Shure, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
"Fox News anchor Megyn Kelly—who ranks among the channel’s most valuable and visible on-air talent, and has maintained close ties with network CEO Roger Ailes—has apparently told lawyers hired by 21st Century Fox that Ailes made sexual advances toward her several years ago, according to reporting by Gabriel Sherman of New York magazine:
According to two sources briefed on parent company 21st Century Fox’s outside probe of the Fox News executive, led by New York-based law firm Paul, Weiss, Kelly has told investigators that Ailes made unwanted sexual advances towards her about ten years ago when she was a young correspondent at Fox. Kelly, according to the sources, has described her harassment by Ailes in detail.
This revelation comes on the heels of Fox News host Gretchen Carlson’s sexual harassment lawsuit against Ailes. It’s unclear what exactly Ailes’ alleged harassment of Kelly involved, but as Sherman notes, Kelly’s disclosure of her boss’s advances goes a long way to explaining two key mysteries surrounding Carlson’s litigation: The mealy-mouthed statements coming out of 21st Century Fox, and Kelly’s heretofore total lack of involvement in Fox’s response to the lawsuit.”*
