Comedian Tyler Fischer, a frequent guest on Fox News’ Gutfeld!, has been blacklisted from the network after being accused of sexual harassment. Fischer claims his only “crime” was asking a woman out for coffee, but Fox disputes this account. The incident occurred when Fischer approached a young woman sitting at her desk in the Fox studios, introducing himself and suggesting they get coffee sometime. However, she reported him as harassment, and security escorted him away.
Fischer believes he is a victim of “woke mind virus” culture and is now considering pursuing legal action against Fox. He argues that asking a grown adult for coffee is not illegal or against any rules at Fox, but is labeled as toxic masculinity in the network’s woke world. Fischer has made jokes about sensitive topics such as fat bald feminists and women being forced to have sex with their divorced partners.
The incident comes amid a wave of #MeToo allegations against Fox employees in 2017. The network has declined to comment on Fischer’s blacklist, but he believes it is the result of discriminatory policies, including those targeting white male actors. Fischer thinks legal action might be the only way to protect accused men from being blacklisted.
