Breaking: Eric Bolling's Son Passes Away
Independent Journal Review ^ | 09/09/2017 | IJR staff

Posted on 09/09/2017 11:11:21 AM PDT by Rusty0604

Fox News just announced the decision to terminate popular host Eric Bolling amid allegations of inappropriate text messages — but as of Saturday morning, that was the least of Bolling's troubles. Sources are now reporting that Bolling's 19-year-old son, affectionately known as “Eric Chase,” passed away on Friday night. A source close to Eric Bolling confirmed the news to Mediaite. A statement from Fox News is expected soon.

Bolling has spoken of his son fondly and often on Twitter:

It is clear that Bolling deeply loved his son and took great pride in watching him grow up.

Suicide,the absolute worst-——we had one in our family in 1960 and I still remember every minute of that day-——every minute.

Is this the guy who Sent dicpics to his coworkers years ago (allegedly)? Omg how Sad. Condolences.

I hate to wonder but did the scandal and maybe a divorce or split of his parents play any part?

Do men think ever of how their combo of fame+sexual indiscretions hurt those the most important to them? I don’t know if it had any effect
On his son’s troubles. But my dad was locally
Well known and successful and it would
Have been horrible in my teens if he were fired due to a sex scandal.

Those pictures were sent long time back, May be his son send those pictures when he is either upset with his Dad or bickering women on TV.

Yesterday, after hearing his father lost his job, he decided to end his life.

My niece, when upset with anyone will send idiotic message to all on address list from Mobile phone of target person..

“The accusations against his father and the family dealing with that, however, I could imagine adding to regular teen angst.”


Absolutely,his whole world was falling apart.

If the alleged misdeeds are a false allegation (I doubt it but you never know) the family should sue Fox for wrongful
Death if this scandal had a part in the poor boy’s devastation.

Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ ... 19-year-old Eric Chase Bolling, Jr. took his life Friday afternoon in Boulder, CO, where he attended school. We’re told it was off campus.

I know I worry about my two boys. They're still young but their teens and 20s will be here before they realize.

I had a very difficult time at that age. I was a lost child searching for an identity, spinning my wheels in circles and feeling like I was going nowhere. Now at 48, I look back on those so-called "troubles" and laugh. They mean nothing to me now but back then, that angst was real.

I don’t believe the charges either.
I remember the “news” of this started at Huffington Compost!
Accuser is a huge leftie man hater.
I hope Bolling sues everyone involved for many millions.

Sounds like she needs serious psychological intervention.

Truly nothing more tragic than this.
Eric will need tremendous strength and much prayer to weather this storm.
Prayers for the family and eternal rest for the son.
