Fox's Ailes asks NY court to compel ex-anchor Carlson to arbitrate

Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes on Friday petitioned a federal court in Manhattan to compel former anchor Gretchen Carlson, who filed a sexual harassment lawsuit against him this month, to arbitrate her employment-related claims in New York City. Carlson had sued Ailes on July 6 in New Jersey Superior Court, accusing him of sexually inappropriate conduct at various times during her 11 years at the network. Carlson was dismissed from Fox News last month after saying she had rebuffed his advances.
