6 Former Fox News Employees Request Release from NDAs
Six former Fox News employees, including former news anchor, Gretchen Carlson and former political consultant, Julie Roginsky, became the latest in a growing list of female employees who are demanding to be released from Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs) they signed as part of their sexual harassment and discrimination settlements with Fox. The NDAs prohibit them from talking about the alleged unlawful conduct in any form. Both Carlson and Roginsky accused their former employer, Roger Ailes, former President and Chairman of Fox News, of sexual harassment and discrimination. According to court documents, Carlson alleged that Ailes "sabotaged her career because she refused his sexual advances." Roginsky alleged that she was denied a co-hosting job on a show after she refused to have a sexual relationship with Ailes.
