Fox News has been working hard to clean up the mess left by Roger Ailes and Bill O’Reilly, but while the sexual harassment lawsuits have slowed down, they have not stopped.

The latest to sue the company is Britt McHenry.

Henry has filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against the network and her former co-host Tyrus.

McHenry who works for Fox News streaming service Fox Nation, 3 filed a suit yesterday alleging sexual harassment, gender discrimination, and retaliation, according to multiple reports.

“The last thing I wanted to do was file this lawsuit. But I had to stand up for what’s right for myself and for women,” McHenry, who joined Fox News as a contributor in 2018, said in a statement Tuesday.

According to the complaint, which was filed by attorney Lisa Bloom, McHenry claims the network sought to punish her after she accused her former UN-PC co-host Tyrus of sexually harassing her and sending her sexually charged text messages.

“Britt McHenry’s bombshell story should not be happening at Fox News in 2019. I am proud to represent her as she demands justice,” Bloom said in a statement.

In response to McHenry’s suit, a Fox News spokesperson said Tuesday, “Ms. McHenry’s lawsuit recycles the same allegations she filed with the New York State Division of Human Rights in October, to which we filed a response on Friday. As we have previously stated, Ms. McHenry’s allegations have been fully investigated and we are confident our actions will be deemed entirely appropriate in litigation. We expect all of her claims to be dismissed.”

McHenry also works for Fox owned WTTG in DC and she is still on the air at the station, while her lawsuit against WTTG’s parent company moves forward.

This is the same Britt McHenry that was caught on video cruelly berating a towing-company employee in a parking garage in D.C.

McHenry also claimed that she was demoted at ESPN because she was "white and made too much."
