Longtime WFAN midday host Joe Benigno has been accused of sexual harassment and having "propositioned" a former CBS Radio advertising executive for "threesomes" involving him, his wife and "prostitutes," according to a shocking lawsuit filed Thursday in New York Supreme Court.
The allegations and lawsuit were first reported by The New York Post. NJ Advance Media has since obtained a copy of the lawsuit.
In the lawsuit, the former ad executive, Lauren Lockwood, alleges WFAN and CBS Radio had an alcohol-fueled "Animal House" culture in its offices that resulted in "flagrant sexual harassment, gender bias, unequal pay, unequal terms of commission, targeting of complainants and retaliation as well as protection and concealment of favored male talent's sexual misconduct.
