(NEW YORK) — Suspended Fox News host Eric Bolling on Wednesday sued the reporter who broke the story that he had allegedly sent lewd text messages to colleagues. Bolling filed a $50 million defamation lawsuit in state Supreme Court in Manhattan against Yashar Ali, a Huffington Post contributing writer. The cable news host said Ali damaged his reputation through what the court papers call the “highly reckless publication of actionable false and misleading statements about the plaintiff’s conduct and character.” Bolling was suspended over the weekend pending an internal investigation that a Fox spokesperson said is underway. Ali wrote last week that Bolling is accused of sending unsolicited photos of male genitalia to co-workers over several years. On Wednesday, the reporter tweeted that he stands by his story and will protect his sources.
