Gretchen Carlson Sues Roger Ailes for Sexual Harassment

This is ugly.

Former The Real Story with Gretchen Carlson host Gretchen Carlson has sued Fox News CEO Roger Ailes for sexual harassment.

The suit alleges that Ailes terminated Carlson’s contract because she rebuffed his sexual advances.

“I think you and I should have had a sexual relationship a long time ago and then you’d be good and better and I’d be good and better,” Ailes allegedly told Carlson, during a meeting she called to address what Carlson saw as unfair treatment in the newsroom.
