The man is a stud, no question about it. Maybe not as studley as Bill O'Really, but clearly a man among men.

Tidbits from the story:

In recent days, more than a dozen women have contacted Carlson’s New Jersey–based attorney, Nancy Erika Smith, and made detailed allegations of sexual harassment by Ailes...

Kellie Boyle, 54
Former Republican National Committee field adviser

This was back in 1989. I was 29 and living in New Jersey. My husband worked at CNBC and he said, "Roger Ailes is coming in to be interviewed — would you like to meet him?" I said yes! I’d worked in political communications for the Republican National Committee, so Roger Ailes was like a god.

...after dinner he said, "Can I take you to your friend’s?" So we get in the car and that’s when he said, "You know if you want to play with the big boys, you have to lay with the big boys." I was so taken aback. I said, "Gosh, I didn’t know that. How would that work?" I was trying to kill time because I didn’t know if he was going to attack me...And he said, "Well, you might have to give a blow job every once in a while." I told him I was going to have to think about this. He said, "No, if you don’t do it now, you know that means you won’t."

The next morning I show up to get my assignment and was told the guy I was supposed to be meeting with was unavailable...A couple weeks later, I called a friend who was very high up in the RNC and I asked him what happened. He said, "Word went out you weren’t to be hired."

Susan,* 66
Former model

I was 16 years old, living in Radnor, Pennsylvania. I was sent over for a walk-on part on The Mike Douglas Show in the winter of 1967...Ailes took me into this big office and locked the door with a key. He reclined on a couch in a seating area...He proceeded to pull down his pants and very gingerly pull out his genitals and said, “Kiss them.” And they were red, like raw hamburger...

Diane,* 69
Media consultant

...This would have been late ’65 or early ’66; I would have been 18 or 19 years old. A bunch of us girls at the agency were called over to audition for him for some sort of skit on The Mike Douglas Show. He had a room, and one by one he would take us behind closed doors. When my turn came I went in, and he didn’t waste any time. He grabbed me and had his hands on me and he forced me to kiss him. When I recoiled he said, "Well, you know no girls get a job here unless they’re cooperative."

From Tricky Dick's media consultant to the father of Fox News- what a guy, huh?

This MF has done more damage to the country than probably any other person.

I wonder if any other of these women will come forth. I imagine Mr. Hunk hit on more than a few of them.



Gretchen isn't the only one not smiling.

[Dennis S]

I wonder why he would hit on some but not others. Or, put another way, why wouldn't he hit on all of them? And, if he fired or didn't hire the ones who turned him down, why did these women get the job?

I would guess more than a few played balls with Mr. Stud.

You answered your own question. You think they were chosen for their journalism skills?
