An employee of the Fox Business Network has sued the cable network, making claims of racist and sexist remarks by host Larry Kudlow, sexual harassment by analyst Andrew Napolitano, and other gossipy allegations in an error-riddled complaint filed in New York.
The lawsuit from plaintiff John Fawcett was filed by Ty Clevenger, an attorney from Plano, Texas who has made a name for himself in recent years suing other lawyers, judges, and political figures. This isn’t Clevenger’s first time suing Fox News; he is also representing former Fox News anchor Ed Henry in a lawsuit filed a month ago against Fox, CNN, National Public Radio, and several other media personalities.
The complaint identifies Fawcett as a 27-year-old who first started working for Fox Business as a production assistant for Lou Dobbs. When Dobbs’ show was cancelled this past February, Larry Kudlow took over and, as the complaint describes, “inherited the production team of Mr. Dobbs,” including Fawcett.
According to the complaint, Kudlow “has used ethnic slurs and made sexually inappropriate comments about women in front of multiple staff members, including [Fawcett],” as well as making racist remarks about Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL), whom Kudlow allegedly did not want appearing on his show, and Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL).
