Fox News Guest Says Senior Producer Solicited Sex in Exchange for Job
---------------------------------------------------------------------

A former guest who appeared regularly on the Fox News channel says a
senior producer solicited sex in exchange for a paid job at the network.
The declaration by Occidental College professor Caroline Heldman came as
part of a lawsuit that charges former Fox consultant Woody Fraser made
numerous unwelcome sexual advances on Heldman and other women who
appeared on Fox News programs. Heldman has also accused former Fox News
personality Bill O'Reilly of sexist comments and of blacklisting her
from the air after she complained.
