9:12Now PlayingAnother former employee of Roger Ailes is coming forward with another account of sexual harassment and exploitation at the hands of the Fox boss. Laurie Luhn says Ailes abused her for decades. Ana Kasparian and John Iadarola, hosts of The Young Turks, break it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.

Luhn said that for a time she went along with Ailes’ advances because he was powerful and, Sherman said, “she thought he could help her advance her career, because she was professionally adrift and emotionally unmoored.”
