| Fox News hosts are accused of sexual harrassment and rape. |
And like Joe Biden, these individuals deserve the benefit of the doubt. But given the rank and utter hypocrisy of Sean "Softball" Hannity and the folks over at Fox News, I believe the women.
Yeah, I am going to enjoy this.
First things first, the right will immediately bring up Biden' accuser Alexandra Tara Reade McCabe Moulton or whatever the hell she calls herself. That woman hasn't filed a lawsuit against Joe Biden.
If she had filed a lawsuit, she would have to testify under oath her account to how Biden digitally penetrated her in the halls of the U.S. Capitol. Her credibility has already been under fire. She allegedly stole from a mare rescue in California, filed frivolous lawsuits against individuals who spurned her and made accusations to earn money from sympathetic idiots.
Her story has been promoted on Fox News heavily by Softball Hannity.
So far, you haven't heard much out of him on the latest controversy involving him, "Sucker" Tucker Carlson, Howard Kurtz and former Fox News host Ed Henry.
They were accused of sexual harassment by a frequent on-air guest in a lawsuit filed Monday that the network called frivolous and untrue.
In the same case, a former Fox employee said she was harassed and raped by Henry, who was fired July 1 shortly after the network became aware of the accusations.
Henry's lawyer, Catherine Foti, said Monday that her client's accuser, Jennifer Eckhart, initiated and encouraged a sexual relationship. Henry is married to Shirley Hung.

| Media Buzz host Howard Kurtz gets caught up in the sexaul abuse scandal. |
The lawsuit filed in New York describes Areu's discomfort with a March 2018 incident on the set of Hannity's show where the host allegedly put $100 on a desk and challenged the men on his staff to take her out on a date.

She said she was a guest on Carlson's show in December 2018 and that after it was over, he told her he was staying in a hotel room in New York that night without his wife and children. In 2019, she said Kurtz invited her to his hotel room to discuss her hope of getting a full-time job at Fox. When she instead invited him to dinner with her and a friend, he declined, she said.
In the cases of Carlson and Kurtz, Areu believed the men were making sexual advances, the lawsuit said. Areu said she was also propositioned by Gianno Caldwell, a Fox contributor.
Based on an outside law firm's investigation, Fox said it found all of Areu's claims "false, patently frivolous and utterly devoid of any merit." Fox said it would defend itself vigorously.
Areu also said she got several lewd messages from Henry. But it was the accusations made by Eckhart, a former employee, that led to the anchor's dismissal. Her allegations weren't made public when Henry was fired.
Eckhart, who was 24 at the time, said the 49-year-old Henry restrained her with metal handcuffs, took nude pictures of her and raped her in a hotel room. She said that he had asked Eckhart to be his "sex slave" and "little whore" and punished her when she did not comply with his demands.
Foti said Henry had received graphic photos and suggestive messages from Eckhart.
"The Me Too movement has helped to bring to light a number of injustices in our society, and everyone that has suffered deserves to be heard," Foti said. "This is not one of those cases."
Eckhart's lawyer, Michael Willemin, accused Foti of trying to "slut-shame" Eckhart and suggest "that she was asking to be violently raped. Nothing could be further from the truth."
The lawsuit said that Fox knew that Henry — who took a four-month leave of absence in 2016 following published reports of his affair with a Las Vegas cocktail waitress — had engaged in sexual misconduct as far back as 2017. Fox said there were no sexual harassment claims against Henry until they learned about Eckhart’s allegations last month.
Fox said Eckhart's case is with Henry, since the network moved swiftly to fire him.
Being targeted again by Douglas Wigdor's law firm, well known for its pursuit of sexual misconduct cases, is an uncomfortable rerun for Fox. The network said it moved aggressively to change its ways after former Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes and star Bill O'Reilly lost their jobs because of accusations by women.
"Fox News would have the public believe that it is a different place from the Fox News that was run by ... Ailes," the lawsuit said. "Unfortunately, it is actually worse."
Fox says it takes all claims of harassment and misconduct seriously.

| What will it take to get rid of this guy? Sean "Softball" Hannity isn't untouchable. He can be fired by Fox News. We are waiting for that silver bullet. This incident could be considered a last straw. |
On top of that, Douglas Wigdor is representing them. Wigdor was the lawyer who represented the Biden accuser until he dropped her after reports came out that she may have lied about her credentials.
The recently divorced Softball Hannity has been spreading the gospel of Donald J. Trump.
Trump has over 25 women accusing him of sexual abuse and harassment. Yet, Softball Hannity is been devoted to talking about that woman and Biden as well as his favorite targets Bill and Hillary Clinton.
After this, I will no longer refer Ed Henry by name. He will be regarded as a sexual predator from this point.
Again, they are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. There's no criminal charges as of yet against the individuals involved but it does give you a description of how Fox News continues to operate on this "can't be touched" culture.
Next month, the Sean Hannity Word Vomit.
