Carlson played her hand brilliantly. She knew her days as a tv presenter were numbered. She played her trump card of sexual harassment only at the end after she milked Fox for every dime she could get. Now she gets a $20 MM golden parachute, and becomes a feminist martyr who took down the boogeyman Ailes. Of course it was Ailes's hubris that set him up for for epic fall. Some clever Greek playwright could make a play about this true story.

If I had $20 million, or even the take after the lawyers get theirs, I would be most happily retired. Just sayin’

Gretchen found Roger Ailes' sexual harassment so unbearable that she stayed at Fox News FOR OVER 10 YEARS. You would think any mediator in any type of settlement discussion would raise this fact as a NON-STARTER.

Are females powerless victims, or liberated and independent feminists? YOU DECIDE.

Gretchen may discover that after the novelty wears off, she may be ‘admired’ by other women and those who hate Fox News, but she is not very well liked. Something similar to what happened with Caitlyn Jenner, but for different reasons. Neither person ever had a great amount of personal appeal from the beginning. Both function best in a symbolic or archetype fashion.

I’d be totally amazed if there was a $20 settlement (especially one that happened this fast) where there wasn’t also a gag order as part of the deal..... I highly doubt that her speaking engagements can address any subject matter that had to do with her sexual harassment suit and settlement.

The same gretchen that walked around in a see through dress showing off her boobs at a big awards night.

And I mean nothing left to the imagination.

Look it up.

She got 20 million just for lewd conversations with her boss.

Meanwhile Paula Jones had to endure Bill Clinton pulling out his bent penis and ordering her to kiss it. Bill Clinton also raped Juanita Broderic for free. Neither of these woman ever got millions for Clinton’s outrageous behavior.

she was a beauty contest winner and a newsreader. Then she played the fan dance game with that Roger Ailes for a year and more and got it into the personal zone. What could she possibly have to say that would interest anyone?

Gretchen Carlson is a toxic, plotting, gold-digging extortionist.

How the H is getting hit on by a boss -- ANY boss -- worth a $20 million settlement??

We've people who've been killed, maimed, and hurt by others by a factor of a a thousand, yet they wind up with a fraction of Carlson's windfall.

No defense of Ailes, but this isn't the definition of "justice"; it's a mockery of the definition of justice.
