Yet another accusation of sexual harassment against Roger Ailes: Daily Bullshit, August 8, 2016

At this time, all of my mailing lists are down, including the Thoughts list previously used to automatically notify readers of my various postings. Modern mailing list managers now all require web servers and I haven’t figured out how to get a web server running under OpenBSD. The mailing lists were seeing very little use, so this is a pretty low priority in the scheme of things. RSS feeds for my research journal, blog, vegetarian ecofeminist blog, and the (Almost) Daily Bullshit remain operational. Also, I automatically post notices on my Twitter and GNU Social feeds.


Roger Ailes

To my knowledge, Roger Ailes’ accusers now include Gretchen Carlson,[1] now Andrea Tantaros,[2] and apparently Megyn Kelly.[3] These are only the women who have been named publicly.
