Fox News said Saturday that it has suspended Eric Bolling, the co-host of its new late-afternoon news program “The Specialists,” while it investigates allegations he sent a lewd photo to co-workers.
A network spokesperson confirmed Bolling’s suspension and investigation in an email.
“The anonymous, uncorroborated claims are untrue and terribly unfair,” Bolling’s attorney Michael J. Bowe wrote in an email. “We intend to fully cooperate with the investigation so that it can be concluded and Eric can return to work as quickly as possible.”
News of the suspension came one day after a HuffPost report relying on anonymous sources stated Bolling had sent a lewd photo to at least three female colleagues at Fox New and Fox Business.
Bolling is the best-known personality on “The Specialists,” a program that airs weekdays at 5 p.m. EDT. The show replaced the network’s series “The Five” in April. He also hosts the weekend show “Cashin’ In.” source
