CNN & NPR commentators sued for defamation by Ed Henry, fired Fox News host

UPDATED, 9:33 PM: Ex-Fox News Host Ed Henry filed two more defamation lawsuits today in US District Court in New York, naming National Public Radio’s David Folkenflik and CNN’s Alisyn Camerota and Brian Stelter (as well as their CNN parent, Turner Broadcasting) for their allegedly defamatory commentary and reporting on his firing by Fox News.

The filings follow a similar lawsuit filed Wednesday in New York against Fox News and the channel’s CEO Suzanne Scott. That lawsuit also alleged defamation.

One of the new complaints alleged that Folkenflik, Camerota and Stelter have “longstanding grudges against Fox News and/or individuals associated with the company,” causing them to repeat false allegations on the reasons why Henry was dismissed from Fox News relating to alleged sexual misconduct.

The suit claims the defendants acted with malice toward Henry by “intentionally or recklessly making false statements about him.”
