MANHATTAN (CN) A federal judge advanced sexual harassment claims Friday against a Fox News personality accused of telling his then co-host that any back talk would be met with dick pics.
Britt McHenry, a former model and soccer player turned sports reporter, filed a civil complaint one year ago against George “Tyrus” Murdoch, a professional wrestler with whom she co-hosted the talk show “Un-PC” on the Fox Nation streaming service from September 2018 to April 2019.
In addition to the text message where Murdoch threatened to send her pictures of his penis, McHenry quoted Murdoch as raving about photographs of her that he found sexy and worthy of impregnating.
