Another One: Charles Payne, Fox Business Network host, accused of rape, defended by...Fox!

Most of the Fox News employees – both on-air talent and executives – who have been accused of sexual impropriety during the past year have been left to defend themselves and have eventually been fired or forced to resign. An exception is Fox Business Network host and Fox News guest host Charles V. Payne. Last July 6, Payne was suspended after the National Enquirer ran a story claiming that he had engaged in an extramarital affair with a frequent Fox News Channel female guest and that he used his position to harass and manipulate her for his own sexual gratification, with the result that her career was irreparably harmed.



The story made its way into the mainstream media, and, true to form, Fox immediately suspended Payne and had him investigated by the law firm Paul, Weiss. Two months later, on September 8, the same day Fox News host Eric Bolling and Fox "parted ways" after allegations that Bolling had harassed three female colleagues, Payne was reinstated in his on-air duties. Payne's return was a pleasant surprise to his fans, who probably expected a different outcome in light of the fact that another case of a male Fox employee who had been similarly accused but was subsequently reinstated did not immediately come to mind.

On September 18, Payne's accuser, Scottie Nell Hughes, a conservative commentator who emerged on the scene during the rise of the Tea Party, upped the ante by filing a civil lawsuit in federal court that charged for the first time that she had been the victim of rape by Payne. One wondered if these new allegations would lead to new problems for Payne at his workplace.

The Allred's are salivating....


The Accuser, Scottie Nell Hughes.

I for one don’t believe it. Too fat and ugly.

[SeekAndFind]

RE: I for one don’t believe it. Too fat and ugly.

Well, that’s why it’s a rape accusation ( BTW, I don’t believe it either ).

[DoughtyOne]

Well, something cereal is going on over there.

Either they have some of the most crass men around, or their female staff are vultures premature in the eating of flesh off their male counterpart’s carcasses.

[DoughtyOne]

I always saw him as a rather recessive host.

He doesn’t seem to fit the profile of a guy on the make.

Hey, who knows...

[nickcarraway]

Is it a surprise that Fox, who promote hedonistic, sensationalist, materialist values would have this happen?

Eff her

[mass55th]

I don’t believe it since she claims it happened in 2013, and never reported it, feeling compelled to continue the sexual relationship with Payne for two more years. Who does she thinks she’s kidding? He probably ended the affair, and she got pi$$ed, maybe even harassed him. I wouldn’t have had the beyotch on the show either. What better way to get even than to claim rape. All she had to do was say NO the first time, and during the following two years she was spreading her legs for him. I don’t believe her, and I’m a woman.

[rockinqsranch]

I do not believe her one bit. I think this has a basis in a transaction somebody doesn’t want the Murdochs to succeed, and some money is exchanging hands. Quite an accusation, but I will stick with it until proven otherwise.

[wardaddy]

He has admitted the affair

I doubt he raped her

See her emails to him

She’s trash

I wouldn’t **** on her if she were burning

[DoughtyOne]

Yikes. Thanks for the mention.

It’s just not a good idea to participate in this in the workplace.

[McGavin999]

Love Charles, glad he is back, don’t believe the charges. FOX is reprehensible for firing people without bothering to stand up and defend them. These are women trying to cash in. Years ago these charges may have meant something but women claim we are equal to men and then run off crying because someone said something to the.

Nothing sickens me more than a women claiming poor little ole me status when they can’t make it in the world

[MayflowerMadam]

Rape? Oh, please. I believe she has a history of almost stalker-like behavior. People have reported seeing her flirt outrageously with Payne. She’s going to have to do better than that.

She’s almost as bad as Hillary. Let it go already.

[Karoo]

I like him and his show. So glad when I learned he was coming back on air.

[Qwackertoo]

I don’t believe it either . . .

but when 80 and 90 year old grandma’s are raped . . . it isn’t about looks.

Just sayin’ . . . better to just say she is a nut job bimbo and grasping at straws for some easy money than insult her looks or her weight.

[DoughtyOne]

Good Karoo.

He seemed like a pretty good guy, but then this doesn’t impress me a whole lot.

Hey, things happen...

[Old Yeller]

Well, something cereal is going on over there.

Shep likes Fruit Loops.

Another One: Charles Payne, Fox Business Network host, accused of rape...

CHA CHING!! The Fox Bimbo parade to fake riches marches on! I don't believe this BS for one second. The trollops saw this work with Ailes, saw it work with OReilly and started a "Let's us cash in too" parade to the MSM. Rediculous. If the Murdocks had any cajones, they would have sued these Bimbo's Butts off.

[DoughtyOne]

Not surprised...
