The dominoes continue to fall at the Fox News channel (FNC). Last month, popular Fox Business channel host and Fox News channel occasional anchor and guest Charles Payne was suspended after allegations that he sexually harassed a frequent female guest on FNC with whom he admitted to having had a sexual relationship. A Fox News spokesperson confirmed last week that Payne remains on suspension.

Now it is Eric Bolling who is the target:

Hmmm: "The author of the story, Yashar Ali, also writes for Mother Jones, New York Magazine, and other leftist publications according to his Twitter account." So, an angry guy that writes for mj and nym and other alt-left sites? Names of sources please mx. assclown.

The thing about Charles Payne seems at first glance to be BS.

Not buying that Eric Bolling would do something scandalous.

He has always been very conservative and a good husband and father.

Could not happen to a more deserving bunch than our GOOD friends at Faux News. I don’t watch their phony crap make believe conservatism.

Bolling's attorney is with Kasowitz Benson Torres.

That's Kasowitz as in killer (Trump's old attorney).

I think the is BS, but....

“Does not recall”
and
“Does not believe”

are NOT very convincing denials.

Somerset Maugham’ story The Rain spelled it out 100 years ago. Men, sex, and propinquity. The married preacher trying to turn the beautiful South Pacific hooker to Religion. Spending hours alone with her.

Donald Trump underlined the ending of that story when he said that famous men on TV have women climbing all over them for sex.

Not many men can or even want to resist that.

The left is going to keep “finding” women and probably men to attack the Fox hosts. Soon it will be Lou Dobbs or perhaps lurid stories about Melissa Francis alleging that she abused her co-stars on “little house on the prairie.”

Maybe. But strange thing is that my wife is the only woman on the planet who makes me get an erection.

I told her once that I could sit on the front row and an endless parade of "10s" could walk nekkid on the stage and I would think the same thoughts as watching the old television show "Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous" namely: 'That's really lovely and nice but I can't afford it.'

But, yeah, in my dreams I'd like to try.

Charles Payne is a star in the financial field for Fox News....what he does in private is his problem or not....Bill Clinton forever tarnished the Oval Office but is revered as is his corrupt wife, both used their offices to gain wealth...yet it is only the Republican or Conservative who are vilified daily by Democrats....Obama, history will show...was anything but a true American Patriot, that includes his wife...what they are doing behind the scene while in office and today is traitorous...

Charles HAS been on hiatus for several weeks now.

The thing about Eric, however, doesn’t pass the smell test, his wife also is often in the studio.

I think it’s just the shifting sands of political correctness vis-a-vis sexual harassment. It’s become weaponized and everybody wants their 15 minutes.

“I don’t recall” type responses at this point are okay. Don’t show all your cards before you have to.

Some men think that they’re flattering the woman by making light innuendo and double entendre. Is it sexual harassment if you think about it. Women don’t wear 3” heels and mid thigh skirts with low cut shirt for nothing. Knowingly or unknowingly it distracts men and sexually disturbs another. I don’t think most women consider beauty vs attraction.
