Charlie Dixon is out at FS1, three months after he was named as a defendant in multiple lawsuits, Front Office Sports has confirmed.
“Charlie Dixon is no longer with Fox Sports. There is no further comment at this time,” a spokesperson told FOS in a statement. The news was first reported by The Athletic.
Former FS1 hairstylist Noushin Faraji and former network host Julie Stewart-Binks both filed lawsuits earlier this year.
Faraji accused Dixon of grabbing her buttocks at a birthday party. Stewart-Binks accused Dixon of forcibly kissing her at a Los Angeles hotel in 2016. In a subsequent court filing, Dixon claimed that “no sexual or offensive contact or intentional contact with [Stewart-Binks]” at the meeting.
FOS previously reported that Fox has been in settlement talks via mediation for both lawsuits. Fox initially suspended Dixon in February.
Dixon joined FS1 in 2015 and became head of the network in 2017.
