Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson has filed a lawsuit against CEO Roger Ailes over claims of sexual harassment and wrongful termination.

Lawyers for Carlson claimed in an email sent to various reporters that she turned down sexual advances from Ailes, who then later told her that saying yes would have benefited her.

The complaint details a variety of interactions between Carlson and Ailes. 

One excerpt from the lawsuit reads:

Carlson, who has worked at FNC since 2006, was recently let go from FNC when her contract ended. She was given what some considered a demotion in 2013 when she was removed from FNC's morning show "Fox & Friends" and given a show in the afternoon. Read more...

Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
