Fox News Channel said it had suspended Eric Bolling, a host and contributor whose on-air presence the 21st Century Fox-owned network had been growing in recent months. He is the latest in a number of the outlet's personnel to have become embroiled in controversy.
Earlier this week, a Huffington Post report disclosed allegations Bolling had sent lewd messages to colleagues via smartphone.
"Eric Bolling has been suspended pending the results of an investigation, which is currently underway," the network said in a statement.
