Jason Whitlock has shared his piece on the scandal blown open at FOX Sports following the news of a damning lawsuit.
The suit, filed by Noushin Faraji, a former hairstylist at the network, accuses former show host Skip Bayless of sexual harassment, with claims that he made an offer of $1.5 million in exchange for sex.
Charlie Dixon, a top-ranking executive, is also named. Joy Taylor features prominently, too, as she is said to have had relationships with Dixon and Emmanuel Acho. Taylor is accused of uttering derogatory remarks toward Faraji and making fun of her last name.
Shannon Sharpe is only briefly mentioned, with the documents noting that Bayless accused the complainant of sleeping with the former NFL star. But Whitlock has painted the ESPN analyst as someone who has a lot of dirt on his hands.
“Shannon Sharpe’s not anywhere in this lawsuit, but trust me, they got an HR file on Shannon Sharpe that would make your head spin,” Whitlock said during his ‘Fearless’ show on Monday.
“The things that Shannon Sharpe did at FS1 make Joy Taylor look like Mother Theresa,” he added.

Jason Whitlock Says Shannon Sharpe Was Involved In The Most Debauchery At FS1
Whitlock, who reckons Sharpe was fully aware of the lawsuit and somehow pulled the strings, also made claims of Sharpe moving around the FS1 studio in “the tightest boxers.”
“From what I experienced in my four or five years there, there is no one that was involved in more suspicious eye-raising flirtation with makeup wardrobe than Shannon Sharpe,” he claimed.
Sharpe addressed the suit during his ‘Nightcap’ show on Sunday night, pointing out that it has nothing to do with him. He hasn’t responded directly to Whitlock’s claims, and it will be interesting to see whether he does.
As for Taylor and Acho, they have both since made appearances on television as they normally would.
