His departure was part of an ongoing purge of executives and stars amid a crush of sexual harassment allegations there. "Any attempt to come forward with Ailes' abuse would have been at best fruitless and at worst devastating to Luhn's safety, career, financial situation, personal friendships, family relationships and public reputation." Then Fox News star Megyn Kelly, then Fox commentator Julie Roginsky and former Fox host Alisyn Camerota were among women those who accused Ailes of harassment.

Before Ailes' death, attorney Susan Estrich, denied the allegations by Luhn and other women of sexual misconduct.
