Murdoch confirms Kimberly Guilfoyle's mysterious Fox exit was due to 'inappropriate' behavior

Information leaked from Dominion Voting Systems’ lawsuit against Fox News seems to have confirmed news reports from 2018 alleging that Kimberly Guilfoyle's mysterious departure from the network was due to sexually inappropriate behavior, theEast Bay Times reported.

In an email cited in the lawsuit, Fox News Chairman Rupert Murdoch said after the 2020 elections that he wanted her gone due to the allegations, saying that he “insisted” Fox fire Guilfoyle “for inappropriate behavior.”

“Newsmax not good people!” Rupert wrote in the email. “Being advised by [Guilfoyle] who I insisted we fire for inappropriate behavior. Not one of our people will join her. Newsmax desperate for money. Scoured the world, so far without luck.”

As the East Bay Times points out, Guilfoyle and Donald Trump Jr. have been dating since 2018.

The woman (ed: the complainant) was hired in 2015, just out of college, to work as an assistant for Guilfoyle and another former Fox host, Eric Bolling. According to a dozen well-informed sources familiar with her complaints, the assistant alleged that Guilfoyle, her direct supervisor, subjected her frequently to degrading, abusive, and sexually inappropriate behavior; among other things, she said that she was frequently required to work at Guilfoyle’s New York apartment while the Fox host displayed herself naked, and was shown photographs of the genitalia of men with whom Guilfoyle had had sexual relations. The draft complaint also alleged that Guilfoyle spoke incessantly and luridly about her sex life, and on one occasion demanded a massage of her bare thighs; other times, she said, Guilfoyle told her to submit to a Fox employee’s demands for sexual favors, encouraged her to sleep with wealthy and powerful men, asked her to critique her naked body, demanded that she share a room with her on business trips, required her to sleep over at her apartment, and exposed herself to her, making her feel deeply uncomfortable.
