A longstanding rumor in media has been that on Fox News, the women aren’t allowed to wear pants. It might interfere with the infamous “leg cam,” right?
Back in July, three Fox anchors told Mediaite that there was no rule against wearing pants and no leg cam, as other reporters had claimed to have found.
Today on The View, Jedediah Bila told a very different story.
“We get wardrobes, but it’s different than here. We used to go into a room and there were a bunch of dresses you could choose from.
I was told at one point I wasn’t allowed to wear orange because Roger didn’t like the color orange, so I didn’t wear orange,” revealed the former Fox regular.
“I didn’t see any pants. People always say, ‘Why didn’t you wear pants?’ You’ll notice I wear pants a lot here. I didn’t wear pants because I didn’t see a pants option.
"I wasn’t given a pants option so I had to wear skirts.”
She moved on to discussing the allegations lobbed by Julie Roginsky against Ailes and Shine just yesterday.
“I worked with Julie. She’s good people. I looked at that and I said, ‘Wow, they have a problem if they have good people with good reputations coming out now and saying these things. I’ve known her. I’ve worked with her,” defended Bila.
Roginsky thanked her on Twitter.
Bila, too, had more to say online.
For the record Gretchen Carlson let it slip that pants weren’t “allowed” for women on Fox years ago.

What's next? She's going to complain she'd be fired if she didn't shave her legs?
I guess she would really complain about the “options” on Naked News.
I think we’ve all seen the “leg shots”.
Jed sweetie,
Nobody tunes in for your overpowering intellect, no matter what network you’re working for.
Anyone named Jedediah should wear pants.
oh gee. A company has a dress code. What a novel idea.
Uh, the women on Fox don’t sit with their legs aimed directly at the camera; they sit echeloned at an angle to show off their high hemlines. No complaints here.
The show “Outnumbered” would be more accurately named “Boxed In”, IMO. Getting the male guest distracted is their sole object.
Harrison Faulkner can distract me anytime.
;^)
My battle cry:
Down with hotpants!
SANDRA Smith? Not familiar... did Shep finally get that operation? A little too much eye makeup, if you ask me.
Yes, it is a male Hebrew name mentioned only once in the bible. The one striking use of it is in the earlier explorations to find a route to the west. The iconic name alongside Lewis and Clarke, is Jedidiah Smith.
Lewis and Clark exploration of 1804-1806. Jedidiah Strong Smith. (1798-1831)said to have been killed by Comanches. Body never found.
Fine for you. I’ve seen too much too many times.
I completely missed the Laura Dhue era of Fox. I was boycotting all cable TV at the time.
Now my life will never be the same... Woe is me.
As a father of two daughters, I would be appalled if the dress code of their work did not allow for business style suits.
It disgusts me when the men around here act like a bunch of twelve year old boys holding up their iPad with one hand while they ogle Fox News.
