  • Outsmarting the Fox: Gretchen Carlson, Sexual Harassment and A
    OUTSMARTING THE FOX: GRETCHEN CARLSON, SEXUAL HARASSMENT, AND A PRE-SUIT ARBITRATION CLAUSE Kent Kauffman Kimberly O’Connor Purdue University Fort Wayne When Fox News confirmed in June 2017 that it had dropped “Fair and Balanced” as its mainstay slogan (Grynbaum, 2017), it signaled the ignominious end of the Roger Ailes era at Fox News. That era outlived Mr. Ailes, who had died a few weeks earlier at the age of 77, after falling in his bathroom (Haberman, 2017). Ailes was Fox News’s co-Founder and president since the cable channel’s 1996 birth, until he resigned in July 2016 (Stelter & Byers, 2016). His abrupt resignation was an initial consequence of the tsunami caused by the sexual harassment lawsuit that former Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson filed against him two weeks earlier (Carlson Complaint, 2016). During the interim, Fox News hired a law firm to investigate multiple allegations of sexual harassment levied against Ailes. Some of the accusations had been made by women who felt emboldened to come forward after it was reported that Megyn Kelly, Fox’s first-tier star (and former lawyer), claimed that Ailes had also sexually harassed her (Sherman, 2016). Fox News settled with Carlson a few weeks later and gave her $20 million plus a formal apology (Grynbaum & Koblin, 2016). Not only was the payout huge, but it was also noteworthy that Carlson had never actually sued Fox News. She had only sued Roger Ailes. Why she sued only him, and how, is not only informative about the nature of her employment contract and its binding arbitration clause, but says much about the difficulty many women have combatting sexual harassment in a work setting.

  • The Donald Trump-Rupert Murdoch Relationship in the United States
    The Donald Trump-Rupert Murdoch relationship in the United States When Donald Trump ran as a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, Rupert Murdoch was reported to be initially opposed to him, so the Wall Street Journal and the New York Post were too.1 However, Roger Ailes and Murdoch fell out because Ailes wanted to give more positive coverage to Trump on Fox News.2 Soon afterwards, however, Fox News turned more negative towards Trump.3 As Trump emerged as the inevitable winner of the race for the nomination, Murdoch’s attitude towards Trump appeared to shift, as did his US news outlets.4 Once Trump became the nominee, he and Rupert Murdoch effectively concluded an alliance of mutual benefit: Murdoch’s news outlets would help get Trump elected, and then Trump would use his powers as president in ways that supported Rupert Murdoch’s interests. An early signal of this coming together was Trump’s public attacks on the AT&T-Time Warner merger, 21st Century Fox having tried but failed to acquire Time Warner previously in 2014. Over the last year and a half, Fox News has been the major TV news supporter of Donald Trump. Its coverage has displayed extreme bias in his favour, offering fawning coverage of his actions and downplaying or rubbishing news stories damaging to him, while also leading attacks against Donald Trump’s opponent in the 2016 presidential election, Hillary Clinton. Ofcom itself ruled that several Sean Hannity programmes in August 2016 were so biased in favour of Donald Trump and against Hillary Clinton that they breached UK impartiality rules.5 During this period, Rupert Murdoch has been CEO of Fox News, in which position he is also 1 See e.g.

  • The Healing Forest – the Entire African American Community As a Recovery Center (M.5)
    Transcript: The Healing Forest – The Entire African American Community as a Recovery Center (M.5) Presenter: Mark Sanders Recorded on June 9th, 2020 MARK SANDERS: Hello everyone. I like to start these virtual sessions with recovery stories where they give us hope. In March of 1995, I was giving a speech in Downers Grove, Illinois. That's a suburb just west of Chicago. And there was a woman sitting in the front row-- African-American woman sitting in the front row center aisle seat who asked if I was the same Mark Sanders who worked at a detox center in 1985 a decade earlier. I said, yeah, that's me. She said, I was a patient on the detox unit. You were my counselor. I don't always remember names, but I remember stories and faces. So here's her story. She was addicted to cocaine and heroin, and she supported her drug habit through prostitution. In fact, she sold her body not too far from our detox facility. And some evenings, as I was driving home, I'd see her standing on the corner. She left detox and went back to selling her body. She looked really bad to me. You know how when a person stops-- starts using drugs, they stop eating, they lose a lot of weight. So I remember looking at her some evening and saying to myself as I was driving, well, she looks really bad. I don't think she'll ever recover. Am I the only one listening to the sound of my voice who's ever worked with a client that you thought would never recover? See, that's why I'm convinced that computers will never be able to do your job.
