Fox News anchor Eric Bolling has been suspended pending an investigation into lewd messages he is accused of sending multiple female coworkers at Fox News and Fox Business Channel.

In a statement, Fox News confirmed Bolling's suspension Saturday afternoon.

"Eric Bolling has been suspended pending the results of an investigation, which is currently underway," a Fox spokesperson said.

The messages were reportedly sent years ago, and on several different occasions. The Huffington Post called the images "deeply upsetting and offensive" to the women who spoke to the news outlet about the incidents.

An attorney for Bolling said he had no recollection of the messages and doesn't believe he sent them.

“Mr. Bolling recalls no such inappropriate communications, does not believe he sent any such communications, and will vigorously pursue his legal remedies for any false and defamatory accusations that are made," his attorney said.

The allegations against Bolling follow a tumultuous year for Fox News.

I don’t know why you say that even if you were guilty.

I can’t believe he was that stupid. I could see Geraldo pulling this move, not Bolling.

Maybe that is why Geraldo flew the coop.

Didn’t know that Geraldo had left FNC. I haven’t watched FNC, since the debates.

Geraldo was on Fox and Friends yesterday.

He is still on regularly on different Fox shows—unfortunately.

Why? Geraldo is solidly pro-Trump these days.

“Eric Bolling suspended from Fox amid lewd message allegations”

This is an overused modus operandi, but then what don’t the left overuse, overdo as method to subdue their opposition?

Fox is now being run by “Son of Murdoch”, as left an a-hole as they come.

Because Geraldo is an opportunist.

He wasn’t always pro-Trump, only when he realized his mileage on Fox would go farther if he was.

FOX appears to be purging males with conservative leanings.

Sean, Jesse, Greg and Tucker better watch out. Juan, not so much. Then again, just the allegation is enough these days apparently.
