Fox lawyers are reviewing sexual harassment allegations against business news host Charles Payne


Charles Payne, who hosts “Making Money” on the network, has acknowledged what he described as a three-year “romantic relationship” with a married female political analyst who frequently appeared on Fox News from 2013 to 2016. Payne admitted to the extramarital affair in a statement to the National Enquirer published Wednesday that included an apology to his wife, children and friends.

That relationship is now being reviewed after the woman contacted Fox’s law firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison last month to report her allegations of sexual misconduct, the sources said. The woman, who worked for CNN last year, had a representative tell the firm she believed she was eventually blackballed from the network after she ended the affair in 2015 and tried to report Payne to top executives at Fox News, according to the sources.
