It appears Fox News had a banner year for sexual harassment allegations in 2016—in addition to a very high-profile sexual harassment scandal involving former chairman Roger Ailes, the network reportedly paid a female employee hush money somewhere in "the high six figures" after she accused Bill O'Reilly of repeatedly sexually harassing her. Bless you, LawNewz.com. Bless you.

As first reported yesterday by the aforementioned LawNewz.com and reblogged today by the NY Times, documents show that the on-air personality Juliet Huddy accused O'Reilly of, among other things, calling her house repeatedly while sometimes sounding like he was masturbating; inviting her to his house and trying to kiss her; and luring her to his hotel room where he appeared at the door in boxers.

Huddy detailed the alleged incidents, which she says began occurring in 2011, in a letter she sent to Fox News executives in August of last year. A sampling from the Times:

During the Broadway show, according to the letter, Mr. O’Reilly moved close to Ms. Huddy in a way that made her feel uncomfortable. He tried to hold her hand but she pulled it away. Then he dropped a key to the room at a Midtown Manhattan hotel he was staying at into her lap, and told her to meet him there after the show. He stood up and left, the letter said

Ms. Huddy went to the hotel to return Mr. O’Reilly’s key, according to the letter.She asked him to meet her in the lobby, but he refused and asked her to join him in his room.

“Ms. Huddy declined and explained that she was not interested in Mr. O’Reilly on a personal or sexual level,” the letter said.

Mr. O’Reilly persisted and again asked that Ms. Huddy come up to his room, and she ultimately went up give him the key, according to the letter. It is not clear why she did not leave it at the front desk or simply leave.

When Mr. O’Reilly opened the door to his room, he was wearing nothing but boxer shorts, according to the letter. Ms. Huddy was “very embarrassed, handed Mr. O’Reilly his key and quickly left,” the letter said.

In the months after Mr. O’Reilly and Ms. Huddy went to the show in Manhattan, his “obsession with her only escalated,” the letter said.

Mr. O’Reilly started calling Ms. Huddy at all hours, even while he was on vacation. At times, the calls were about work, but they were sometimes “highly inappropriate and sexual,” the letter said. On some occasions, it sounded like Mr. O’Reilly was masturbating, the letter said.

“Disgusted, Ms. Huddy came up with an excuse and hung up the phone,” the letter said.

Huddy alleged that when she refused O'Reilly's advances, he "began to retaliate against her both on and off air," criticizing her work and axing a segment she had on his show. Huddy left Fox on September 7th, two days after the network reportedly reached a multimillion dollar settlement with her. Ailes was forced out of Fox News—to the tune of $60 million—less than two months prior.

O'Reilly, whose program The O'Reilly Factor is still on Fox News nightly, is no stranger to sexual harassment accusations—indeed, stories about him calling women while apparently masturbating seem to be commonplace. In 2004, ex-producer Andrea Mackris sued O'Reilly for repeatedly sexually harassing her, which included allegedly calling her when it sounded like he was masturbating and allegedly describing sexual fantasies to her. That suit, which O'Reilly called a "brutal ordeal," was settled the same year (O'Reilly did not apologize to Mackris).

And former Fox News host Andrea Tantaros sued the network in August, alleging she was sexually harassed by a slew of people connected to Fox News including Ailes and O'Reilly:

[C]ommencing in February 2016, Bill O’Reilly (“O’Reilly”), whom Tantaros had considered to be a good friend and a person from whom she sought career guidance, started sexually harassing her by, inter alia, (a) asking her to come to stay with him on Long Island where it would be “very private,” and (b) telling her on more than one occasion that he could “see [her] as a wild girl,” and that he believed that she had a “wild side.” Fox News did take one action: plainly because of O’Reilly’s rumored prior sexual harassment issues and in recognition of Tantaros’s complaints, [Fox News in-house lawyer Diane] Brandi informed [Tantaro's lawyer] that Tantaros would no longer be appearing on O’Reilly’s Fox News show.

O'Reilly's attorney, Fredric S. Newman, told the Times, "There is absolutely no basis for any claim of sexual harassment against Bill O’Reilly by Juliet Huddy." A spokeswoman for Fox News told the paper that Huddy's letter detailing O'Reilly's alleged offenses, as well as accusations of sexual harassment made by Fox executive Jack Abernethy, "contains substantial falsehoods, which both men have vehemently denied."

“Juliet Huddy’s letter of intent to sue contained substantial falsehoods which both men vehemently denied."
