Greta Van Susteren Breaks Her Silence About Fox Sexual Harassment Lawsuit Fox News fans were shocked this week when Gretchen Carlson filed a lawsuit against network CEO Roger Ailes accusing him of sexually harassing her. Now, host Greta Van Susteren has finally broken her silence about the allegations. I hate injustice, Van Susteren told reporters. Go through my Gretawire. I defend CNN! I defend all sorts of people when I think its wrong. Van Susteren went on to clearly defend 76-year-old Ailes. Historically, I dont like it when I think somebody is being falsely accused or wronged. Im an old criminal defense attorney, she began. This ones wrong, based on my experience. The facts I know are that this is not the Roger Ailes Ive ever heard about or seen. She went on to argue that she has never heard anything like this, and people are known to talk in her industry. I have no reason to curry favor with Roger Ailes, Van Susteren continued. I can assure you that theres nothing Roger can do for me or against me. My contract is with the corporation. Im not trying to get a new one. Im not for sale in this situation. You know that. If I didnt think this, I wouldnt be doing this. I was shocked by her lawsuit, she concluded, noting that they knew each other professionally. I went through it and its completely foreign to my experience, and my knowledge of the environment. Dont forget: Im a lawyer with two degrees. I wouldnt stick around if this were a weird place like that. What do you think of Van Susterens comments?
