Fans hail Colin Cowherd for no role in Fox lawsuit
Share:
FS1 host Colin Cowherd isn't universally loved by sports fans. Rather, the often-divisive sports pundit is regularly targeted on social media over one controversial opinion or another. But in the wake of hair stylist Noushin Faraji's hostile workplace lawsuit against the network and many of its biggest names, the 61-year-old Cowherd is now being declared the unlikely winner of a particularly ugly story.
'Throughout [Faraji's] entire tenure at Fox, Mr. Cowherd was professional and respectful to Ms. Faraji and her coworkers,' read the 42-page filing obtained by DailyMail.com. That description of Cowherd comes in stark contracts to Faraji's comments about former FS1 Skip Bayless and current network executive Charlie Dixon, both of whom she accuses of sexual harassment. And for that matter, Cowherd comes off much better than fellow FS1 host Joy Taylor, who is alleged to have discouraged Faraji from making sexual harassment complaints against Bayless and Dixon.
'Shout out to Colin Cowherd,' read one post on X. 'A complete gentleman.'. The post goes on to mention another FS1 host, Nick Wright, 'who is not mentioned once in those 42 pages.'. Colin Cowherd and wife Ann Cowherd attend the The Volume Anniversary Party in 2022.
Former Fox host Skip Bayless, 73, is pictured with his wife of eight years, Ernestine Sclafani. Hair stylist Noushin Faraji (pictured) has accused Fox Sports of creating a hostile workplace. 'We may hate Colin Cowherd's takes, but by all accounts, he isn't a piece of s*** human,' read one response to the lawsuit.
