A bombshell lawsuit filed by two women Monday accused former Fox News chief national correspondent Ed Henry of raping one of them and says that the network’s star anchor Sean Hannity once offered $100 to staffers to “date” another woman who also accuses Henry of sexual harassment.

The federal suit says that one of the plaintiffs, Cathy Areu, also was sexually harassed by other high-profile men at Fox News, including Hannity, host Tucker Carlson, journalist Howard Kurtz and contributor Gianno Caldwell.

The other plaintiff, former Fox Business associate producer Jennifer Eckhart, claims that Henry raped her, in addition to committing other sexual misconduct against her.

Sorry. That’s too much revenue getting accused all at once. We’re going to have to disparage, harass, and ultimately ignore this go around. It’s just the way it has to be. You know the rules, multiple women accuse only one of the enlightened at a time with documentary evidence, white male witnesses, panties, video, bodily fluid.

I was somewhat surprised by Kurtz being involved, but then I guess when you have powerful men all running around sexually harassing women and an ideologically apologist presence due to conservatism running rampant, including by both men and women in the office, these things are going to happen. When conservative men and women excuse the behavior it just gets worse. On the other hand, at this point, these are allegations and so we need to see what comes from them and what evidence there is from the federal suit as more information comes out of it.

*Raises hand* I'm surprised.

Not that Hannity is caught up in this. But I mean at some point, an executive must have told Tucker Carlson the events that lead up to him being relevant on TV again. I would have thought the interview would have gone along the lines of, "Now Tucker, we don't care that you're a white supremacist, but you can't do what your predecessor did."

Shows how much of a naive dumb cunt I am.

I doubt there is any man in the Fox News organization who can't be credibly accused of sexual harassment. When an organization like Fox News normalizes trading sex for workplace advancement, the inexcusable becomes the norm.

In the corporate world, the big boss gets the best office and the best parking space. At Fox News, Roger Ailes has first claim on the best looking news readers. The perq of position filters down. Bill OReilly gets to grab his assistant's ass and drop by her apartment on nights he isn't going home. As we drop down the corporate ladder, the capacity to harass diminishes until there's a guy who is limited to asking the woman in the next cubical if her breasts are real. Nobody is shocked. It's just the way it is. Where do you go to complain?

In this kind of environment, it's inevitable that genuine rapist is going to show up in the mix. The only real surprise is there is only one.
