Fox Sports executive placed on leave following sexual battery allegations

Charlie Dixon, a Fox Sports executive, has been placed on administrative leave amid allegations of sexual battery in two lawsuits. The lawsuits were filed last month by former employees Noushin Faraji and Julie Stewart-Binks. Faraji claims Dixon groped her at a party in 2017, while Stewart-Binks alleges he assaulted her in a hotel room after a work meeting in 2016. Fox Sports has not commented on Dixon's leave status. Dixon has been with Fox Sports since 2015 and was expected to participate in the Super Bowl coverage this weekend. Fox stated that they investigated the allegations when they were first reported in 2017.
