Former Fox News host Andrea Tantaros filed a lawsuit against the network, becoming the second host in two months to accuse Roger Ailes, who stepped down as network chairman last month, of sexual harassment. (Erin Patrick O'Connor/The Washington Post)Former Fox News host Andrea Tantaros filed a lawsuit against the network, becoming the second host in two months to accuse Roger Ailes, who stepped down as network chairman last month, of sexual harassment. Tantaros is the second on-air personality at Fox in the past two months to sue Ailes and others at the network for alleged harassment. The complaint also said that Fox host Bill O’Reilly had made unwelcome advances toward her. “Fox News masquerades as a defender of traditional family values, but behind the scenes, it operates like a sex-fueled, Playboy Mansion-like cult, steeped in intimidation, indecency and misogyny,” Tantaros’s lawsuit says.
