A judge threw out a New York lawsuit Friday against Fox News by former host Andrea Tantaros, citing her “vague, speculative and conclusory allegations.”

The lawsuit U.S. District Judge George Daniels dismissed had alleged Fox tried to torment Tantaros after she complained about sexual harassment.

The lawsuit claimed Tantaros was viewed as a threat by Fox executives after she declined an offer of more than $1 million to remain silent. The suit said Tantaros suspected her emails and telephone conversations were being monitored after she revealed personal information in calls or emails that were then referenced by others in cruel social media posts.

She sought unspecified damages.

Fox News Channel had urged the lawsuit be rejected, saying the claims were a paranoid fantasy or a deliberate hoax. …

I never thought the Hot / Crazy Matrix would need to be utilized with her. Now I wonder....

She should have taken the money and walked.
Now, with Lachlan, the oldest Murdoch son about to take a more active role in Fox News, such a high offer may be off the table.

Maybe Lachlan would offer Andrea ‘a really big sum’ if she would give him one quick kiss. Then say ‘I was just kidding’
Can you imagine the explosion?

This case will be reinstated on appeal. Too many other claims and payoffs from FNC to dismiss her lawsuit at this stage.

People are gossips would be the first assumption.

But then again, you have no expectations of privacy for anything said on a company phone or on a company computer. Every company I know of makes that quite clear to their employees.

She should have settled and gotten back on TV. She has been off the air now for more than two years.

“Trash. Just like M. Kelly”

Actually smart, attractive and Conservative. Yes she has come off the rails a bit, and she has questionable taste in men, but she isn't the first or last to fall for a Rock & Roll bad boy.

“If Andrea sexually harassed me, I would not sue.”

I’m guessing she’s run out of money.

The reason why every outfit she wears is as tight as possible in the chest area is that she’s not actually hot at all, but in reality rather ugly. That nose and especially that man-mouth of hers are massive turn-offs.

Any woman who advertises her looks as a means of career advancement ought to be prohibited from claiming harassment. This particular one is a full time T&A pusher.

The taking seriously as journalists of what are essentially prostitutes that has contributed mightly to the degradation of the profession.
