Fox News agreed to pay a $1 million penalty under a settlement reached last week with the New York City Commission on Human Rights. The case stemmed from a cascade of sexual misconduct allegations that shook the network several years ago and led to the exits of Roger Ailes, its co-founder, and the anchor Bill O’Reilly.
“This is the largest civil penalty that has ever been levied by the City Commission on Human Rights,” the agency’s chair and commissioner, Carmelyn P. Malalis, said in an interview on Tuesday. “We need to send a message in order to deter future acts of harassment or retaliation.”
The settlement, which was finalized on June 25, will prevent Fox News for the next four years from including in new employment contracts a clause requiring confidential arbitration in cases where an employee lodges a complaint under the city’s Human Rights Law. It also mandates that the network carry out a variety of anti-harassment training and prevention measures.
The Commission on Human Rights is the agency that enforces the city’s anti-discrimination laws in workplaces, housing, public services and other spheres. Ms. Malalis said the commission began investigating Fox News in September 2017, around the time that several employees spoke out about sexual harassment at the network; it formally opened a complaint in December 2018.
In a statement on Tuesday, Fox News said it was “pleased to reach an amicable resolution of this legacy matter.”
“Fox News Media has already been in full compliance across the board, but cooperated with the New York City Commission on Human Rights to continue enacting extensive preventive measures against all forms of discrimination and harassment,” the network said.
In the last few years, Fox News has hired a new human resources team and strengthened sensitivity training requirements, among other measures intended to reform its workplace culture. The network’s agreement last week to pay a $1 million penalty was first reported by The Daily Beast.

Nah, we’ll see it as a breath of fresh air from the typical cloud of bullshit they sling.
I look forward to when the POOTWH cultists in Congress turn against our allied Afghans and label them terrorists and how that lib band, and particularly that socialist Stone Gossard, Pearl Jam are destroying ‘Murica by supporting terrorists. Then you’ll see faux news replay edited versions of there/their/they’re interview with Stone and demand there/their/they’re viewers burn there/their/they’re Pearl Jam records, especially that socialist-communist manifesto known as Benaroya Hall, and boycott there/their/they’re concerts.
It's almost like the only two classes are not Democrat and Republican, rather the rule makers and the elites and then the rest of us.
Unless you’re gay and want to buy a cake or flowers for your wedding.
Ahh yes, another issue to divide us... The real insurrection will occur when the plebes band together and go after them. Unfortunately, it will never happen.

Do you believe it’s right and should be legal for a bakery to deny service to a gay couple?

And you expect “conversation” or “debate” or “honest answers?” How about answering the question? It’s a simple yes or no. Is it really that hard for you?

What tactics are you referring to? That both sides are the same? I never did get an answer. What are your thoughts on discrimination based on sexual orientation? Huh?

I'm poking fun at you. The flip side of that argument is (I think)what are your thoughts on religious discrimination?
Edit: So this doesn't drag on, my comment was a total troll one and not need answered.

I don’t think it’s religious discrimination for a religious zealot cake or flower shop owner to have to serve someone with a sexual orientation they don’t approve of. What are your thoughts?

The bakery is open to the public but have the right to refuse service.
If I put it another way where a man in a head scarf walks in to buy a cake for Ramadan decorated in Arabic and was refused, would your response be the same?
Personally I wouldn't go back to either bakery if the above scenarios happened but they should have the right to refuse service.
