Former Fox Personality Andrea Tantaros Suing Fox for $50 Million, Claiming Sexual Harassment

Another high-heeled shoe drops.

'Fox News operates like a sex-fueled, Playboy Mansion-like cult:' Ex-host Andrea Tantaros sues the network for $50 million and claims Roger Ailes, Bill O'Reilly, and Scott Brown all made unwanted sexual advances

Andrea Tantaros has filed a lawsuit against Fox News claiming she was taken off the air when she complained about sexual harassment

Tantaros, 37, claims that she received unwanted sexual advances from both Bill O'Reilly, Scott Brown and Roger Ailes

She said the network 'operates like a sex-fueled, Playboy Mansion-like cult, steeped in intimidation, indecency and misogyny'

Tantaros names current Fox News co-president Bill Shine in the suit, saying she told him about the harassment but he failed to act

She also takes aim at Rupert Murdoch saying he is 'plainly not disturbed by Ailes's conduct' in the $50million suit

She's also claiming Ailes routinely disparages all of his employees in colorful ways.

Roger Ailes' insults: Fox News chief called Kimberly Guilfoyle a 'Puerto Rican w***e,' asked if Greg Gutfeld was gay, referred to Stacey Dash as 'the black girl' and stated Gretchen Carlson was 'nuts' claims lawsuit

Roger Ailes allegedly made less than flattering comments about a number of his Fox News employees according to a new lawsuit

Kimberly Guilfoyle, host of The Five, was allegedly called a 'Puerto Rican w****,' 'easy,' and a 'Puerto Rican street fighter' by Ailes

The lawsuit was filed by Andrea Tantaros, who claims Ailes asked if The Five host Greg Gutfeld was gay and if pundit Dana Perino was a lesbian

Ailes also allegedly referred to Stacey Dash as 'the black girl' and said Harris Faulkner 'has the tendency to look like the angry black woman'

Gretchen Carlson was allegedly called 'nuts' by Ailes, and Maria Bartiromo 'fat'

Eh, who knows. She strikes me as a little kooky and a little desperate for fame.
