RadioOnFire.com - Infowars director Alex Jones was accused of bullying, racism, and sexual misconduct by a former African-American female employee. The woman, along with another Jewish employee spoke out against the controversial host in an article published in the Daily Mail.
“I was subjected to different terms and conditions of employment, in comparison to my non-Black-African-American peers, when it came to my salary/wages and benefits (travel), and in regards to my dress, including my hairstyle,” said former Infowars production assistant Ashley Beckford.
“I also was subjected to harassment and racial slurs by Respondent’s management and some peer, colleagues, as well as subjected to sexual harassment and a hostile sexually offensive work environment.”
Beckford stated that the harassment came in the form of Jones grabbing her butt in front of other people and asking them “who wouldn’t want a black wife?” She also claimed that she was denied promotions because of her race.
Former Jewish employee Rob Jacobson told the Daily Mail that Alex Jones was abusive and called him names like “The Jewish Individual” and “The Resident Jew” during his time with the company. Aside from race jokes, Jacobson believes Jones was also trying to groom him for “homosexual sex.”
“From 2008-2012, Alex Jones called me Beefcake, referring to male porn stars. I felt like this was intimidating and harassing and a form of sexual harassment in that he was grooming me for homosexual sex […] In 2014, [Jones] allowed his friend Shane Steiner into my office to display on my computer with images of gay pornography. I believe his action was a continuation of the intimidation and sexual harassment.”
