I visit a local tavern for lunch, and Fox has the 'Outnumbered' in that time slot. Don't misunderstand I LOVE to see attractive women, but it seems to me to be objectifying women in the news...

O’Really should come out as gay. They’ll hire him back.

Could O’Reilly be the innocent victim of an ideological witch hunt?
Gee, ya' think?
I don't about "innocent," but referring to someone as "hot chocolate" is not sexual harassment in my book.

If there is any such liberal conspiracy (and maybe there is),

If? If? Soros has been preaching and financing it for a generation or more.

We LISTEN to Fox on XM - no cable (less, these days)...so whenever I see a Fox broadcast elsewhere it is shocking how the women dress.

I think the setup to ouster conservative talent started years ago. the Murdoch children think that if they use scandal to get rid of popular personnel in there organization they will be able to keep there numbers. they are wrong.

It’s no big secret that mixing in attractive women wearing sexy outfits works - all they are doing is reading the news with the presentation pleasing to the eye.

If that changes at Fox, someone needs to re-create the original format for a big win.

Kimberly Guilfoyle on Fox likes to dress and act like a lady of the night.She loves to giggle at the constant sex references from the dwarf Greg Gutfeld. Andrea Tantaros used her body to her advantage, wearing the tightest outfits imaginable, then whined when she was let go and screamed sexual harassment, suing Fox for millions. I’ve never heard Bill O’Reilly or Sean Hannity make sex remarks to women. Other than Gutfeld, who thinks he’s being funny and Jesse Watters, who never misses a good chance on his “Watters World” segment to reference sex when talking to women on the street,I have never heard a Fox personality mention sex. Most of the women on Fox are pretty classy. And I appreciate that they’re by and large nice-looking and wear dresses instead of lesbian looking pants. Why does no one ever mention Bob Beckel calling the president of the United States a SOB on national TV? He’s the biggest waste of money on Fox. He’s there to put down President Trump and that’s exactly what he does every day. Why does anyone interview Trump hater Bernard Goldberg? He has said time again Trump does not have the integrity or temperament to be president and agrees with liberals 95% of the time, now saying that Trump’s problems with the liberal media he caused all by himself. If Goldberg is interviewed about the president you know exactly what he’s going to say. It’s going to be a putdown. It’s liberal asses like him, Juan Williams, Rivera, Beckel and others who’ve ran me away from Fox News, not pretty girls with skirts on.

The pornification of the media has not been a good trend.

Is MSDNC discriminating against pretty women?

Too much to read article, but Fox News has been going liberal for a long time. Not much worth watching except Hannity and he is probably next for the ax.

Went to OAN for news and the format seems to still be growing. Good sight but it's basically a news format so far.

I don’t see anything wrong with having the women on Fox dress provocatively, it is show business and a visual medium after all and they are not there for their melodious voices.

Nor do I see anything wrong with whatever Jesse supposedly did. And neither does Fox or they would have canned him instead of giving him a two-day holiday. Especially in light of the double-standard which played out when Sarah Palin and other conservative women were mocked and degraded in vastly more obvious and disgusting ways.

If anything, Jesse’s sin was no greater than the crack Rep. Cedric Richmond made about Kellyanne Conway on the Oval Office couch. And he is a congressman, not a talking head - what punishment did he receive?

Excellent, much-needed article. Thank you for posting. I too notice that conservatism’s moral woof is being separated from its fiscal warp. All that is doing is leaving a threadbare “conservatism”.

Apparently, THAT is how they want them to dress. This article is an eye opener.

Looking for CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, etc. to all clean house and purge their ranks of men and WOMEN who are accused of sexual harassment. Holding my breath....
