There could be another side to the Gretchen Carlson story

To the editor:
Since I am a very regular viewer of Fox News, and no, I am not a middle age white man, I just want to say until Pam Stone watches Fox News, which she says she never does, she should not jump to such quick conclusions.
I, too, have watched Gretchen Carlson many, many times on her morning show with Brian Kilmeade and Steve Doocy and believe me that was the only time she acted like she enjoyed her job and enjoyed her co-hosts. She used to call the two her work husbands. She was in her element and the show was good.
As soon as she got her own show it was a bomb for sure, and I can see why the ratings were not good. Very boring and awkward. So maybe it could be that Gretchen Carlson is not a great newscaster, or show host, or whatever she was, and this was the reason she was let go.
If she believes she was unfairly ousted I think maybe she should look at the back clips of her show and she will see why. If Roger Ailes made sexual advances, bring on the money, but don’t jump to such quick conclusions before the ink is dry on the lawsuit. There are always two sides to every story.
