Regulator received 7,300 complaints after Laurence Fox’s sexist comments about female journalist on the presenter’s show
A GB News presenter suspended over an on-air misogyny scandal has now had his contract with MailOnline terminated as Ofcom launches an investigation.
The regulator said it had received around 7,300 complaints after a series of offensive and sexist comments about female journalist Ava Evans on Tuesday night.
One of the GB News stars at the heart of the controversy, Dan Wootton, has now lost his contract with MailOnline.
Wootton had written a regular column for the Daily Mail’s website since 2021, but it was paused in August pending an investigation into allegations that he offered colleagues money for sexual material while using a pseudonym.
