Discussion: Fox News Host Andrea Tantaros Says Execs Knew Ailes Sexually Harassed Her

She could always try Trumpā€™s solution, find another job elsewhere.

Amazing how the tone changes when she is the victim.

Ailment was probably on an incentive basis.

The more you harass the wimmen-folk, the bigger the hidden discretionary budget you get.

Itā€™s the Fux way.

Tantaros sleeps with Dave Navarro. That she pretends there is actually a man on the planet that creeps her out is folly.

Firstly, nothing she has done (nothing anyone does) justifies being sexually harassed.

But I think it is ironic in a way that this comes up entangled with a fight explicitly tied to her efforts against feminism. If youā€™re not happy, Ms. Tantaros, perhaps itā€™s because women donā€™t have everything they need, even if you think we have everything we want.

This is the most appalling one yet, as it may actually cause otherwise rational people to feel sympathy for Tantaros, one of the vilest of Foxā€™s many repellant personalities.

This lawsuit (or suits) will be so interesting.

On one hand, these women say such abominably stupid, ignorant, and flatout false things on air every day that Fox ā€œNewsā€ could easily make the argument that they were being demoted or terminated for cause!

But, then the women in the claims could return fire with the claim that Fox News has created an environment so devoid of facts that their statements canā€™t even be considered grounds for removal/transfer/discipline!

But, letā€™s be honest, with this many allegations this is turning out like Bill Cosby. Is there a women at Fox News he didnā€™t harass or sleep with in exchange for a promotion?

Meanwhile, heā€™s laughing his way to the bank with his eight figure severance.

Iā€™ll never forgive Ailes for making Tantaros a sympathetic character.

Imagine Ann Coulter lodging these complaints. A lot of people would be saying ā€œGood, and I hope a ball-peen hammer was somehow involved, too!!ā€

Not that itā€™s a good look now, but itā€™s really not going to be a good look if/when he hitā€™s 70.

I agree, but given the frequency and overwrought fantasy of Tantarosā€™s lies about Democrats and liberals, one has to wonder if sheā€™s telling the truth about Ailes. Itā€™s not like Iā€™ve ever heard her tell the truth before. The only thing supporting Tantarosā€™s story is Ailesā€™s known harassment of other women.

Iā€™m not sure anything Tantaros says can be taken at face value or believed, even when it otherwise matches up with what we already know.

Iā€™m confused. I thought Ailes used her in his ā€œBlack Roomā€ tactics according to Sherman and she reported back to him willingly. From an article at NY Magazine by Gabriel Sherman just yesterday:

He also asked Fox host Andrea Tantaros, whom Ailes had once seated next to Lindsley at a dinner party at Ailesā€™s home, to contact Lindsley and report back on his whereabouts, two sources said.

So which is it? She was a willing helper with Ailes to go after people he wanted to smear, or she was a victimized employee of Ailes unwilling to compromise her values?

Wasnā€™t Ailes AWESOME enough?

Just in general ā€¦

Also applies to @steviedee111ā€™s post of David Navarro.

Oh Jeezeā€¦

I am at pains to come up with a response to this that does not rely on slut-shaming Andrea Tantaros.
