Gretchen Carlson: Fox News firing Ed Henry is a 'victory' calls Duckworth 'patriot'
2020-07-12
[AOL] Just four years after going public with a sexual harassment lawsuit against Fox News chairman Roger Ailes, former Fox News host Gretchen Carlson calls the recent firing of Ed Henry a "victory" for women.

"Four years ago, nobody would have been paying attention to it," Carlson tells Yahoo Entertainment about the news that broke on July 1 that Henry, co-anchor of America’s Newsroom, was fired as a result of a complaint made the week before about "willful sexual misconduct in the workplace years ago," according to an internal memo from the network.

#12  Tammy Quackworth was seriously wounded as a right-seater in a Pentagon version of Affirmative Action. It gives her nothing in terms of gravitas, but seems to allow her a pass on whatever pukes from her maw.

Her recent position statement regarding the removal of George Washington statues speaks loudly. And now it appears she, owing to a trifecta of boxes checked, may be in contention as Joe Biden's anti-Kryptonite.

Imo, the only heroes in her universe were those who, to the ultimate detriment of our country, put her back together.

#11  Note for the record, Benedict Arnold was a patriot as well, well up to that unfortunate moment he decided his ego was more important than the nation.

#7  Since she resigned a year ago, is her statement on Ed Henry her way to try and be relevant?

#5  I knew a Gretchen once who lived in one of those long stay motels on Confederate Memorial Ave but I don't think it was her real name.

#4  /\ Yeah, no kidding! The only Gretchen's I know are from Goethe's Faust and that nut-job in Ann Arbor.

#3  Neither Gretchen Carlson nor Ed Henry are ringing a bell with me. Should I know them?

#1  What does willfull sexual misconduct mean? No criminal charges appear to have been charged so was it verbal? If so, how long ago and in what setting? The mans entire career and livelihood appears to have been destroyed by the manner of his abrupt and public firing. What behavior in the world of woke bullshit warranted such destruction?
