Sexual Assault Allegations Surround Top Tucker Carlson Producer at Fox

A former Fox News employee has filed a civil lawsuit accusing Tucker Carlson's top producer, Justin Wells, of sexually assaulting him in 2008. The lawsuit, filed under New York's Adult Survivors Act, alleges that Wells showered the plaintiff with gifts and promised career advancement, creating an environment where the plaintiff felt pressured to stay on Wells' good side. The lawsuit claims that Wells sexually assaulted the plaintiff in his apartment, and later attempted to prevent him from getting a job at an NBC station. Wells denies the allegations, and his attorney argues that the lawsuit is a cash grab. The lawsuit also names Fox News and Fox Corp. as defendants.
