Woman comes forward as Bolling sexual harassment victim
By Jacqueline Thomsen - 08/05/17 08:44 PM EDT One woman has come forward as a victim of sexual harassment by Fox News host Eric Bolling, hours after he was suspended over claims he sent lewd photos of male genitalia to female co-workers.
Caroline Heldman, an associate professor of politics at Occidental College who has frequently appeared on the network, detailed the harassment in a lengthy post on her Facebook page Saturday, first reported by HuffPost.
“Bolling referred to me as 'Dr. McHottie' on air on four different occasions, and called me 'smart, beautiful, and wrong' on air twice,” Heldman wrote. “I pushed back with 'Mr. McSexist,' but I shouldn't have had to. This on-air behavior was perfectly acceptable to Fox executives at the time.”
Bolling was suspended by Fox News on Saturday over claims that he sent photos of male genitalia to female co-workers at Fox News and Fox Business.
Fox confirmed in a statement to The Hill that they are now investigating the incident.
