Someone has to tell the men at Fox News that it’s really easy NOT to sexually harass your co-workers. Like, really, incredibly, very, very, very easy. Apparently this memo has not been circulated around the network’s office, however, because long-time host Eric Bolling is the latest employee to be accused of sexual misconduct. Fox News has suspended Bolling amidst accusations that he sent unsolicited, X-rated photos to at least a pair of colleagues and one Fox Business Network staffer several years ago. In short, based on reporting by The Huffington Post, Bolling allegedly sent these women pictures of his penis. These three women have not been named, but they were included among the 14 sources that spoke to the aforementioned publication about Bolling’s actions. Fox News has hired the law firm Paul Weiss to oversee its own investigation into what happened and it has released the following statement in light of these serious allegations: “Eric Bolling has been suspended pending the results of an investigation, which is currently underway.” Pretty short, simple and uninformative. According to The Huffington Post, Bolling sent these unwanted images on separate occasions and the women knew they came from his cell phone because they recognized his number. One woman says she texted Bolling back to never contact her again in such a manner, and he never replied. Bolling is a former commodities trader who has worked at the Fox News and Fox Business networks since 2007. He joined the network after a stint at CNBC. In September of 2014, during a discussion on the program The Five , Bolling stirred up controversy when talking about the first female fighter pilot from the United Arab Emirates leading the bombing of the Islamic State. On air, Bolling asked if instead of saying “boots on the ground.” it might be more appropriate to say “boobs on the ground.” He apologized the next day for the immature and unprofessional remark, citing “a look” he received from his wife after he arrived home. Bolling has filled in on occasions in the past for Bill O’Reilly and Sean Hannity, while he was serving as a co-host on The Specialists at the time of his suspension. In response to these penis picture allegations, a lawyer for Bolling has said the following: Mr. Bolling recalls no such inappropriate communications, does not believe he sent any such communications, and will vigorously pursue his legal remedies for any false and defamatory accusations that are made. That’s a pretty hilarious and transparent statement. Notice that Bolling does not flatly deny sending these images at any point. His attorney is careful to use language such as how he doesn’t “recall” doing so and doesn’t “believe” this happened. You may interpret such word parsing however you see fit. View Slideshow: 10 Stars Who Have Sent Photos of Their Penis The accusations against Bolling come fewer than four months after Fox News mainstay O’Reilly was fired following a number of sexual harassment lawsuits. And his exit followed the July 2016 resignation of Fox Corp. CEO Roger Ailes, who was accused of sexual harassment by ex-Fox and Friends anchor Gretchen Carlson. (Megyn Kelly made similar accusations against Ailes last year.) Carlson’s former co-host, Steve Doocy, has also been accused of sexist, inappropriate behavior in the work place. At this point, it may be easier to list male Fox News employees who have NOT been accused of sexual harassment than to rundown all who have been.
Offset From Migos Arrested Again In Atlanta After spending half of 2015 behind bars, Migos’ Offset is back in jail tonight — on a technicality. The three-time felon has been keeping his nose clean since getting sprung from the clink in December …but an unpaid ticket put him back in a precarious position during a routine traffic stop earlier today. Via TMZ : One of the guys from Migos is back behind bars after Atlanta cops busted him on a suspended license … TMZ has learned. Offset got pulled over outside a sushi restaurant, and when cops ran his name … the suspended license came up, and he got arrested. A witness captured the whole incident on camera. The rapper’s attorney, Drew Findling, tells TMZ … Offset thought the $316 fine — for suspended license and failure to appear — had been paid when he got out of jail back in December. Remember, Offset spent about 8 months behind bars for drugs and weapons charges last year. He eventually struck a deal and got 5 years probation. His lawyer says Offset can’t be bailed out until Friday morning … so, he’ll be back in a familiar spot for at least one night. Wow. Well seeing as how one more false step could land him in the slammer for quite some time…we hope the judge is lenient on this one, since it seems like an unfortunate oversight. Instagram / TMZ
Republican Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky endorsed Mitt Romney for president Thursday, even if he admits he would prefer his father, Rep. Ron Paul. “My first choice had always been my father. I campaigned for him back when I was 11 years old. He’s still my first pick,” the Republican told Fox News. “But now that the nominating process is over, tonight I’m happy to announce that I’m going to be supporting Gov. Mitt Romney in the fall.” Paul’s father suspended his formidable active campaign operation in May, but is still pursuing delegates so he can have an influence at the GOP convention. Paul noted in the Fox interview that Mitt Romney’s father, Michigan Gov. George Romney, also fell short in his own presidential bid in 1968. In response, Romney said in a statement on his campaign website that he was “honored” by the endorsement of the first-term Kentucky Senator. He called Rand Paul, who campaigned actively for Ron, “a leading voice to scale back the size and reach of government and promote liberty.” The younger Paul has been mentioned as a possible Vice Presidential pick and/or a GOP candidate for President himself in 2016 or 2020.
