An analysis of political donations that Nancy Erika Smith, former Fox News host Gretchen Carlson’s attorney, has made shows she is a hardcore progressive Democrat who has given thousands upon thousands of dollars to Democratic candidates for office. Many of those Democrats that Smith has supported have repeatedly, viciously and very publicly criticized the Fox News Channel for its coverage, Breitbart News has found.
Smith is representing Carlson in her allegations against Fox News CEO and chairman Roger Ailes in a lawsuit Carlson filed last week. Specifically, Carlson alleged—when her contract was not renewed—that Ailes engaged in sexual harassment of her. But as more evidence has trickled out about the case, including internal memos that surfaced over the weekend, it turns out that Ailes’ side of the story seems more credible as Carlson’s allegations have begun to wither under scrutiny.
What’s more, Carlson’s character and attitude inside the building—as Breitbart News reported on Monday—was less than stellar. She treated staff and her colleagues like “furniture,” sources told Breitbart News, a sign that she was conceited and thought the world of herself. Meanwhile, it turns out, Fox News’—and specifically Ailes’—internal documents show he tried to help Carlson’s show work out, and eventually when it did not end up working due to Carlson’s under performance and bad attitude, Fox News severed the relationship with Carlson by not proceeding with contract renewal negotiations.
Meanwhile, scores of female anchors and reporters at Fox News have now spoken out in support of Ailes as Carlson’s side of the story—bolstered by progressive and mainstream media outlets desperate to damage Fox News—has been shown not to have any actual evidence backing it up.

Does telling someone to go have sexual intercourse with one’s self constitute sexual harassment ???
Meh. Lawyers are in it for the money. Their politics are not their client’s politics, except where they line up with the money.
Bottom line: Gretchen Carlson was lousy at her job. I will be surprised if if she gets picked up by one of the other cable news networks.
Smith is just another miserable calculating democrat slime hole.
Carlson’s “Sand Dial” has ran out...too many young Fox babes
to compete with. A Miss America title isn’t worth much.
the GRETCh was a SQUISH for the LEFT.....she was UNWATCHABLE!!! GOOD RIDDANCE!!
Gretchen Who????
I bet there’s a job over at MSNBC or CNN International for her.
Gretchen Carlson vs Roger Ailes.
Gosh, I feel conflicted — I want them both to lose.
