Former Fox News Anchor Alisyn Camerota Says Network Is 'Rotten to the Core'

CNN's Alisyn Camerota reacted Tuesday to the latest lawsuit filed against her former employer, Fox News, accusing one host of rape and others of sexual assault, calling the network "rotten to the core."

Speaking to senior media correspondent Brian Stelter, the "New Day" anchor asked if she could amend a statement she made four years ago, during a different conversation on accused sexual misconduct at the company.

"I remember four years ago, back in 2016, when you interviewed me about things that went on with Roger Ailes and you asked me then, 'God, is Fox just rotten to the core?' and I said something like, 'No, it's not rotten to the core. There are good people there just trying to do their jobs.' I'd like to amend my answer now if I may," she said.

Camerota went on, "Because given everything that has come out since then, I guess it is rotten to the core. I guess that even though there are really good people there who are trying to do their jobs, it's not enough because unless you get rid of — and stamp out — the predators, of course, the culture is still going to be rotten."
