Former Fox News employee Laurie Luhn filed suit against the network and its current CEO Suzanne Scott for defamation, and for what she said was Scott’s role in covering up sexual misconduct committed by former network chief Roger Ailes during Luhn’s employment there.
The complaint, filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on Wednesday, is seeking $120 million in damages and accuses Scott (pictured above) of defaming Luhn after telling Los Angeles Times reporter Stephen Battaglio in a profile earlier this month that she had no knowledge of Ailes’ behavior (despite being one of his closest associates.)
