Fox News host Eric Bolling accused of sending lewd photos to female co-workers

Fox News host Eric Bolling reportedly sent unsolicited lewd photos to female co-workers several years ago via text message, according to The Huffington Post.

“We were just informed of this late Friday afternoon via a Huffington Post inquiry and plan to investigate the matter," a Fox News spokesperson told The Hill.

A dozen sources told Huffington Post that at least two of Bolling’s female colleagues at Fox Business and one at Fox News received the photos of male genitalia from Bolling.

The women who received the photos said they knew the messages were from him because they recognized his phone number from previous correspondence.

One of the recipients of the photos told Huffington Post that Bolling didn’t respond when she told him not to send her similar messages again. Bolling, a former commodities trader and CNBC host before coming to Fox News in 2008, co-hosts the Fox News show "Specialists" and hosts "Cashin' In."

The allegations against Bolling follow a tumultuous year for Fox News. Top-rated host Bill O’Reilly was forced out of the network after after The New York Times reported that he paid $13 million to five different women who accused him of sexual harassment.

The network has also faced several sexual harassment allegations from contributors. Julie Roginsky, who departed the news organization in June, filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against former Fox News CEO Roger Ailes in April claiming that Ailes sexually harassed her and that when she refused his advances, she was denied a job opportunity.

Fox Business host Charles Payne was also suspended from the network last month after allegations of sexual harassment from a Fox News guest who alleges she was "banned" from the network after ending a relationship with Payne.

It’s hard to fathom anyone doing this. Unless his phone was hacked (very possible nowadays) then he is a complete idiot.

Another witch hunt I see....when issues are made of any sexual behavior you can guarantee deepstate and demo-rats are behind it. It’s their favorite tactic to prevent or take down anyone they’ve targeted.

Oh for Gawd’s sakes . . . if true, show some damn restraint, Grown Ups. We realize the Fox Girls are hot (many of them) but you’ve got plenty of other groupies outside the studios who’d just love your attention.

Get real.

Fun for leftists!

Conservative? Pro-Trump?

Just cry “HARASSMENT!” and see how fast Fox News can fire them.

Rinse and repeat.

I don’t believe this. If it happened several years ago why did they wait until now to disclose this?

These women are idiots and any future employer needs to be very weary of hiring them

This story is pure character assassination. It’s grossly irresponsible, to the point of deeply liable, to print such things without having evidence to back it up.

The “a dozen sources” bit plus the complete lack of any thing but hearsay, plus the fact that the rather short article is 80% not actually about the allegations against Bolling but about other allegations against other people...

If HuffPost doesn’t have this 100% correct they could be looking at a new owner. If I were their business insurer I would cancel contract immediately.

I stopped reading there.

Couldn’t care less. All this means is that some chick was sexting with him till she got that magic text message with a winning lotto number (in chick world).

There is zero chance he sent it to some women who was an angel and was reading her Sunday school lesson the night before when *surprise* ...a penis photo text showed up.

Next case.

Payne and Bolling both supported Trump. I’m sure that’s just a coinkydink

On the 5, he once showed a picture of himself on vacation w/out a shirt on to show he wasn’t fat. Maybe it was the same type of picture?

Maybe it was for a story on transsexuals.
