Fox
News Employees Sue
Over Alleged Mold

| NEW YORK---Two Fox News employees have filed
a lawsuit alleging they were sickened by toxic
molds and pesticides in a building where some
of the network's top shows are produced.
The lawsuit, just filed in Supreme Court in
Manhattan, alleges the employees fell ill in
the building where "The O'Reilly Factor"
and "At Large with Geraldo Rivera"
are produced, as well as "Hannity and Colmes"
and "Dayside." It seeks unspecified
damages from Fox News and the building's management
company.
The employees said in court papers that the
molds and the "inappropriate" use
of cleaning agents and pesticides caused headaches,
dizziness, weakness, anxiety, and blurred vision.
Fox News spokeswoman Irena Briganti said in
a statement that the allegations "are baseless
and lack merit." She said the federal Occupational,
Safety and Health Administration had declined
to investigate, and onsite probe by the state's
Department of Environmental Conservation had
"fully resolved" the matter.

We were
purchasing our first home and were
not familiar with the potential problems
associated with mold. Thanks to your
company we were able to find a mold-free
home.
