* This is a sentence I never thought I'd write, given the quality of the things usually being said by FOX presenters, but I absolutely believe Megyn Kelly and Gretchen Carlson. It is no surprise to me at all that working conditions over there are terrible and that Roger Ailes is exactly as gross as I always assumed he was. I know some people are holding the positive things the women said in the press to protect their jobs about him against them, but it is very believable to me that they said those things to protect their jobs and to avoid getting fired and blackballed. You know, the thing that actually happened in this case. It's a legitimate fear because it has happened to so many people who've stood up when they were harassed at work.
So I'm going to say it again. I believe the women.
