Ex-Fox Host Alleges Ailes Used 'Hidden Cameras' To Spy On Women Changing

Source: Talking Points Memo

Former Fox News anchor Andrea Tantaros on Monday alleged that Roger Ailes, the late ousted CEO of the network, used “hidden cameras” inside the network’s offices to record “female talent” as they changed clothes.

In a new filing as part of a lawsuit Tantaros filed last year against Fox News, Ailes and former Fox News co-president Bill Shine, among others, Tantaros alleged that Ailes “was recording female employees disrobe without their consent in their offices” and during a trunk show the network’s wardrobe department conducted bi-annually, “both through audio and with hidden cameras.”

“Fox News operates more like a rogue political campaign and cutthroat cult rife with rampant harassment, misogyny, and bullying than it does a news organization,” the lawsuit alleged. “Fox News is a company that isn’t afraid to spy, hack, bully or weaponize any tool or method at its disposal.”

Fox News did not immediately respond to TPM’s request for comment.

Maybe he could have changed into an enormous orange jumpsuit, had authorities only known.

Speaking of changing . . .
