Former Fox Anchor Ed Henry Faces New Sexual Assault Allegations in Ongoing Lawsuit

Jennifer Eckhart's legal filing claims Fox News ignored warnings about Henry's misconduct, including an alleged assault on another colleague.

Jennifer Eckhart, a former Fox News producer, has filed new allegations against Ed Henry, claiming he sexually assaulted another female colleague during his tenure at the network.
Eckhart's legal team argues that Fox News was aware of Henry's pattern of misconduct but failed to take meaningful action, enabling further abuse.
Fox News maintains that it was unaware of any allegations against Henry until 2020 and acted swiftly by suspending and subsequently terminating him following an independent investigation.
The filing highlights previous incidents involving Henry, including a 2016 affair with a stripper and the use of a company-issued device for inappropriate behavior, which allegedly raised red flags within the organization.
Eckhart's lawsuit seeks to hold Fox News accountable for fostering a toxic workplace culture and failing to protect female employees from harassment and assault.
