"Fox News said Saturday that it has suspended Eric Bolling, the co-host of its late-afternoon news program 'The Specialists,' while it investigates allegations he sent a lewd photo to co-workers.

The network said in a statement that Bolling 'has been suspended pending the results of an investigation' into claims that he sent unsolicited images of his genitals to three female Fox News employees several years ago,The Huffington Post reported Friday evening.

Fox News said that an investigation 'is currently underway,' with attorney Paul Weiss leading the proceedings.

I'm shocked by this if it's true what a stupid thing to do and destroy your career.
 
Are there any Fox News guys who haven't been accused of bad sexual behavior?
 
Fourteen anonymous sources confirmed this to the reporter who wrote the original story. Another woman, a college professor who has been a regular guest on Fox went public with her story on Saturday.

Could it be something in the water there at Fox?
 
My friend, widowed 12 yeas ago at age 50, began dating recently. We were both SHOCKED when some of her dates sent her photos of their penises. We don't get it at all. At all. But, it did ensure that there were no second dates with these perverts.
 
I will never understand the appeal either. If someone sent me a photo like that I would be disgusted. That's the last thing I want a photo of.
 
Mr Bolling has left Fox News

"Longtime Fox News host Eric Bolling has agreed to leave the network following an investigation into claims of sexual harassment after three of his colleagues claimed that he sent them unsolicited photos of male genitalia via text message.
The rising Fox News host was suspended during the investigation and will now leave the network where he has anchored several different shows for the past 10 years.

'Fox News Channel is canceling The Specialists, and Eric Bolling and Fox have agreed to part ways amicably,' a network spokesperson told DailyMail.com.
'We thank Eric for his ten years of service to our loyal viewers and wish him the best of luck.'

After the news was announced that he was leaving Fox, Bolling tweeted: 'I will continue to fight against these false smear attacks! THANK YOU FOR CONTINUED SUPPORT'.

Sounds like a total jerk and a creep to me - unfortunately technology has made this all possible despite the fact some people insist on making the wrong choices when sending such images over their mobile devices. IOW, technology has not helped improve human judgement on what to do or not to do when handed one of these devices.
 
too bad. i really liked the guy and continue to hope it isnt true. has there been definitite proof that he sent the pics? the specialists was the five wannabe and really didnt like it too much. i so miss red eye, they need to bring it back and bring back bill shutlz.

I really don't understand sending such images even in a relationship it almost never ends well. If this allegedly did happen and I state that no evidence has been been released to suggest that it did it has cost him millions of Dollars in future income. I guess he can go back to being a stockbroker.

We don't get Fox News in the U.K anymore but when we did I always found him knowledgable about business and a nice enough guy. He will be a loss to the network.

No evidence has been publicly revealed. I think the lawsuit against the huffington post journalist who broke the story for $50 million is still going ahead. The journalist posted he was gone from Fox News on twitter I'd imagine he believes this development possibly helps him defend the lawsuit.

I don't think that they would release 'the evidence'. It could only be the photos from the phones of women he sent them to. Someone would have had to have seen them to fire him.
 
Yes I don't think they would release that evidence,lol.If it was just one woman you could say it was just a bitter person out to get him.But THREE women making the same claim.Guilty as sin.
 
Eric Bolling's 19 year old son Chase died last night. He committed suicide.

The son of Eric Bolling, a Fox News host who was fired from the cable news giant after an investigation into claims of sexual harassment, has died, it was learned on Saturday.

Eric Chase, 19, died on Friday night, journalist Yashar Ali reported on Saturday.
'Very sad news, Eric Bolling’s son, who was only 19, died last night,' Ali tweeted.
'By all accounts, Eric was incredibly devoted to his son. Heartbreaking.'

I'm very sad to post that Eric Bolling and his wife lost their 19 year old son Chase last night. If you watched the Five you would know how much Eric loved him and how proud he was of him. They must be devastated.
 
I can just imagine how embarrassing and shameful it would be for a young man to have his father's proclivities exposed, for lack of a better word. Bolling is claiming it wasn't suicide, but who knows, and I'm sure he's experiencing tremendous guilt right now.
 
What makes you think he committed suicide? Haven't seen this in MSM.
 
I think it more likely a heroin overdose. It is rampant in that age group.

It killed my beloved 19-yo grandson on April 13th of this year.

I have great compassion for all of them, and it makes me ill to read on social media about 'karma' coming to his father.
