Wrong question.
What crime did Roger commit that Fox thought it was worth $ 20 million to keep him out of jail.
Straw man.
FOX paid $20,000,000.00 so you couldn't hear them. Ask Murdock to release them he owns them, paid a pretty price for them too.
Silence.
True, but I was addressing the OP’s comment that Roger should be in Jail.
I merely asked him what Crime would result in his Incarceration and he attacked me personally.
Fun times on FR.
What crime wold warrant a $20,000,000.00 settlement?
Don’t ask me. I didn’t negotiate the deal.
I couldn’t afford a $200 Settlement. LOL
...........good points!
..........I think soon all these aging chicks at Fox and other media companies are just routinely as eating lunch going to be walking wiretaps. With their looks depreciating every day the guys they work with will just have to start assuming that they have microphones in their cleavage. And, over ten years every flirty statement any guy ever said to them is going to appear verbatim in a 20 million dollar lawsuit. Nevermind that these Miss America’s can wear painted on clothes and put on a pretty good porn show while reading the fn news!
Pretty soon the only answer will be to hire ugly women so the guys won’t flirt with them. Or, hire all gals or all guys!
I had dozens of employees years ago. Even back then I would NEVER meet in a room with a female by myself. Never.
How do so many of these pervert types get into those high level jobs. Almost seems to be a requirement.
Lol, are you speaking of “pervert” in terms of Gretchen or Ailes?
In all my years of watching Fox, and Ailes, I never saw Ailes underwear or half his chest.
Gretchen flashed her underwear daily and clearly reveled in it.
This is my point. She was not and is not a little girl selling Brownies door to door. She’s a very mature woman in her fifties making so far unvalidated sexual claims in order to get rich.
Her opposition, the Murdoch’s, caved for reasons of their own which several freepers have pointed out we never will.
Twenty million dollars for getting your ass patted or pinched
by a horny old goat. Not a bad payday.
Why didn't he just rent some really attractive
"high class" escort girls? Would have cost a lot less.
