Report: Fox News Host Sent Unsolicited Lewd Text Messages To Colleagues

Longtime Fox News host Eric Bolling reportedly sent unsolicited text messages with photos of male genitalia to at least three of his colleagues, according to a scathing new report from The Huffington Post.

At least a dozen sources linked to Fox News and Fox Business spoke with Huffington Post on condition of anonymity and the recipients of the alleged photos confirmed the contents of the text messages, which they said they found upsetting and offensive.

One of the women told Huffington Post she responded to the text message, telling Bolling to never send her photos again and she received no response.


A Fox spokesperson told TPM: “We were just informed of this late Friday afternoon via the Huffington Post inquiry and plan to investigate the matter.”

Bolling’s attorney told Huffington Post that he “recalls no such inappropriate communications” and that Bolling doesn’t believe he sent them.

Bolling is not the first Fox News affiliate to be accused of sexual harassment or assault. Fox News chairman Roger Ailes resigned last year after host Gretchen Carlson sued him for sexual harassment. Former host Bill O’Reilly was ousted in April after the New York Times reported he and 21st Century Fox had paid at least five women $13 million in settlements for sexual harassment or inappropriate behavior on O’Reilly’s part.

Bolling — a loud critic of former New York congressman Anthony ? — is a host of “The Specialists” and has worked at Fox News and Fox Business since 2007.

Fox Host Eric Bolling Suspended Pending Results Of Lewd Text Messages Probe

Fox New host Eric Bolling has been suspended while the network conducts an investigation into whether he sent photos of male genitalia to female colleagues, a Fox News spokesperson told TPM Saturday.

“Eric Bolling has been suspended pending the results of an investigation, which is currently underway,” the spokesperson said.

Bolling is the co-host of Fox News shows “Cashin’ In” and “The Specialists” and has worked at Fox News and Fox Business since 2007. “Cashin’ In” was taped Friday morning and was pulled last night once the station was made aware of the allegations, the spokesperson said.


Rotating substitutes will replace Bolling on both shows until the investigation is complete. The probe is being conducted by Paul Weiss, the same law firm that looked into allegations of sexual harassment against former Fox chairman Roger Ailes and former host Bill O’Reilly, Fox said.

The Huffington Post broke the news Friday evening, reporting that at least three of Bolling’s colleagues had received unsolicited lewd photos via text message from the host.

At least a dozen sources linked to Fox News and Fox Business spoke with Huffington Post on condition of anonymity and the recipients of the alleged photos confirmed the contents of the text messages, which they said they found upsetting and offensive.

    Former Fox News Guest Reveals Allegations About Eric Bolling and Sexual Harassment

    Caroline Heldman, a Occidental College associate professor and former Fox News contributor, penned an extensive account on Facebook about how Eric Bolling allegedly harassed her and other women who appeared on the network.

    Bolling is currently suspended from Fox as investigators look into the claims that he sent ? photos to his female colleagues in the past. Heldman is claiming that not only are the accusations true, but Bolling’s conduct has been inappropriate for the last few years.

    Heldman said that on multiple occasions, Bolling would call her “Dr. McHottie” or comment on air about how she was “smart, beautiful, and wrong.” Heldman said she tried to let “Mr. McSexist” know this wasn’t okay with her, but it continued to happen, and Fox executives thought it was all “perfectly acceptable” behavior.

    “Bolling would also contact me via phone and text after shows, sometimes to apologize for his behavior (and then do it again), and sometimes just to talk. He said he wanted to fly me out to New York for in-studio hits and to have “fun.” He asked me to have meals with him on several occasions, but I found excuses not to go. Once, he took me up to his office in New York, showed me his baseball jerseys, and in the brief time I was there, let me know that his office was his favorite place to have sex. I know other women have had similar experiences with Bolling, which means that lots of folks at Fox knew about his behavior well before 2017.”

    Heldman claims she was also sexually harassed by former Fox host Bill O’Reilly and former network executive Woody Fraser.


    A Fox News spokesperson tells Mediaite “We are investigating this matter and all claims will be taken into account.”

    Suspended Fox News Host: ‘I Look Forward To Clearing My Name ASAP’

    The latest Fox News personality to be accused of sexual harassment spoke out on Twitter Monday after being suspended from the network, pending the results of an investigation.

    Fox News announced Saturday that it had suspended Eric Bolling, co-host of “Cashin’ In” and “The Fox News Specialists,” after The Huffington Post reported Friday that Bolling had sent photos of male genitalia to female colleagues.

    HuffPost reported that at least three of Bolling’s colleagues had received the unsolicited lewd photos via text message from the host.

    Bolling tweeted Monday morning saying he was “overwhelmed by all the support” he had received from fans and that he “look(s) forward to clearing my name asap.”



    Rotating substitutes will fill in for Bolling on both shows until the investigation is complete, according to the network. The probe is being conducted by Paul Weiss, the same law firm that looked into allegations of sexual harassment against former Fox chairman Roger Ailes and former host Bill O’Reilly, Fox told TPM on Saturday.

    Bolling has been working at Fox News and Fox Business since 2007.
