In July 2016, allegations of sexual harassment against Ailes became known. He is said to have sexually molested the presenter Gretchen Carlson , who in 2016, since dismissed, filed a lawsuit against Ailes. After other employees of the station, including Megyn Kelly , joined the allegations, Ailes resigned from all functions at Fox News on July 21, 2016. Ailes received $ 40 million in severance payment from Murdoch.
