Chief Chick Comments

Actually a gripping replay of the sexual harassment at Fox News which ultimately cost Roger Ailes(and Bill O'Reilly) his job. Charlize Theron plays Megyn Kelly while Nicole Kidman is Gretchen Carlson(former Miss America) who sues Fox after being fired. Robbie is a fictional composite of other young women at Fox. While the subject is disgusting, one cannot help but being fascinated by the story. Fortunately, the movie shows us none of the physical stuff (ick). John Lithgow is great as Roger Ailes, even though the later is disgusting. Some men will be interested in the topic. While Fox may represent the extreme, women in today's business world will not be totally surprised.
