The analyst whose accusations of sexual harassment have led to Fox Business Network's Charles Payne being suspended has been identified as Scottie Nell Hughes. It emerged Thursday that Payne, who hosts Making Money, had been accused of having a three-year affair with a married political analyst who had worked for CNN. That woman was Hughes and their relationship was well-known within Fox News circles, ten sources told the Huffington Post.

One big problem with office affairs, is what happens when it ends.

Hughes and her husband, Chris (both pictured), have two children. She reportedly hoped her relationship with Payne would get her a permanent place on Fox

The real issue emerges. She's apparently mad because she didn't get her expected payment.

Fox News really needs to lose the bimbos and hire serious journalists.

Aww man, I really like Charles too. I hope he works through this and comes back. Having an affair should not be a fire-able offense.

So a 3 year affair is now magically sexual harassment?

Charlie broke the rules. Always pay the prostitute.

... oh yeah... and don’t cheat on your wife.

If she did not work for Fox then her arguments seem pretty lame. How
did he coerce her? Sexual harassment usually involves the boss as the harasser.

Erma Gawd. In this day and age how is one coerced? All she had to do was go to HR. If there was retaliation one calls any reporter plus Gloria Allred

A few things to say here.

1. Saw this hours ago at http://www.whatfinger.com/

2. Really disappointed in Charles.

3. 3 years!, she’s definitely a Ho.

4. “his lawyer says he ‘categorically denies’ any acts of sexual harassment”
Adultery, flirting with your Ho at you own birthday party, in front of your wife, is NOTHING, but “sexual harassment”? OMG! How dare you Charles? The SH phrase.

I agree that it isn’t “sexual harassment”. Charles was not the one who barred her from appearing further on Fox. It was Bill Shine.

Having said that, I hope he is finished at Fox. His sins were far worse than “sexual harassment”. I hope his wife throws him out on his A$$! Makes him PAY through the nose.

THREE YEARS!!!! Shame, shame, shame.

This is sad. And sinful.

Betrayal on all counts.

I’ll never be able to watch Charles Payne again w/o remembering this.

What a shame. I feel bad for Scottie’s husband and Charles’s wife.
