Fox News Dismissed From Rape Lawsuit

Fox News has paid out millions of dollars to employees and former employees that have reported inappropriate conduct against them while working at the network.

But, when it comes to the Jennifer Eckhart rape case, Fox News is off the hook.

Eckhart was an Associate Producer at FNC, she accused the network of ignoring the risk that she’d be raped by former White House chief correspondent Ed Henry.

A U.S. District Judge dismissed sexual assault, sex trafficking, revenge porn, harassment and retaliation claims from Jennifer Eckhart against the network. But the judge is allowing the majority of her case against Henry to proceed.

In a statement, a lawyer for Eckhart said the ruling will be appealed.

The case against Henry moves forward.
