regarding henry lawsuitGenel

The lawsuit alleged that Areu was also subjected to inappropriate sexual harassment and retaliation by on-air Fox News personalities Sean Hannity, Tucker Carlson, and Howard Kurtz, as well as Fox News contributor Gianno Caldwell.

I stand for all victims who have been mistreated, harassed, assaulted, and even worse, at the hands of those in power, and the institutions that continue to support them, said Jennifer Eckhart, a former associate producer at Fox Business Network who worked in different positions there over seven years, in a statement provided by her attorney. Over time, the lawsuit alleged, Henrys treatment of Eckhart became increasingly violent. Henry said some of the conversationrelied on the "false report" from Folkenflik and that Stelter "recklessly republished Mr. Folkenfliks allegation without confirming its authenticity. In December 2018, after appearing on his show, the complaint alleges that Carlson told Areu "that he would be alone in New York City that night, and specifically said that he would be staying alone in his hotel room without any wife or kids.

Areu awkwardly sidestepped the advances and declined to spend the night at Carlsons hotel. On another occasion, Eckhart alleged, Henry violently raped her while she was handcuffed, only after he took nude photos of her without her consent. In Thursday's lawsuit, Henry pointed to a tweet from Folkenflik,which reported that in 2017, Fox executives were warned about a history of misconduct from Henry, which the former White House correspondent said was defamatory and framed him in a "false light.". On one occasion, he told her to remove her underwear and deliver it to him in an envelope. In the cases of Carlson and Kurtz, Areu believed the men were making sexual advances, the lawsuit said.

It is widely documented in the public record that Fox News has not only cultivated and fostered sexual harassment and misconduct, but has consistently accepted and rewarded it. "Fox News continues to protect and rewardperpetrators of sexual harassment and refuses to take accountability for putting such persons inpositions of power from which they can subject women to sexual misconduct, sexual assault and, in the case of Ms. Eckhart, rape. Ms. Areu and Jennifer Eckhart can pursue their claims against Ed Henry directly with him, as FOX News already took swift action as soon as it learned of Ms. Eckharts claims on June 25 and Mr. Henry is no longer employed by the network., In response, Willemin wrote in a statement, It is outrageous and contrary to common sense that Fox News purports not to take responsibility for his actions.

The lawsuit, some of it so graphic that it includesa "trigger warning" notice, was filedin federal civil court in the Southern District of New York. Fox News was trying to avoid taking accountability for what actually happened; namely, that one of its most prominent on-air personalities with a history of multiple sexual harassment complaints sexually assaulted and raped Ms. Eckhart, the suit states. The network released a memo on July 1 stating that Henry had been fired after an investigation into a complaint about willful sexual misconduct in the workplace., In a statement Fox News said Areu and Eckhart can pursue claims against Henry directly with him, as FOX News already took swift action as soon as it learned of Ms. Eckharts claims on June 25 and Mr. Henry is no longer employed by the network..

The photographs, the lawsuit suggested, were an intimidation tactic to keep Eckhart silent. More:Bill Cosby released from prison after sex assault conviction overturned by Pa.

"Ms. Areu wascompletely mortified and made clear that she was incredibly uncomfortable with Mr. Hannitys misogynistic behavior by quietly pleading with one of her friends in the room to accept the money so that the humiliation would end," the lawsuit says.

Willemin, declined to comment to USA TODAY on whether the crimes alleged in the lawsuit are being investigated by law enforcement. In addition to Henrys alleged violent sexual misconduct, the lawsuit also claims sexual harassment by Tucker Carlson, Sean Hannity, Howard Kurtz, and Gianno Caldwell. Carlson is already in hot water after his top writer resigned earlier this month when it was revealed he had for years posted bigoted content on online message boards under a pseudonym.
