As part of its probe into sexual harassment claims made against Fox News, New York City's Commission on Human Rights fined the network $1 million on Tuesday.
The fine is the highest ordered in the commission's history,
USA Today reports, and the first settlement against a major news network. The investigation began after several Fox News personalities — including former chief Roger Ailes and former anchors Bill O'Reilly and Ed Henry — were accused of sexual harassment and retaliation. Ailes died in 2017, one year after former
Fox & Friends co-host Gretchen Carlson sued him for sexual harassment. 
As part of the settlement, Fox must also institute a policy and complaint procedure for the reporting of harassment and discrimination; provide harassment and bystander training that is approved by the human rights commission; and for four years, stop requiring mandatory arbitration over human rights claims made in New York. Mandatory arbitration, the commission said, is a "widely criticized practice that is often the most significant barrier to determining whether a workplace has a pervasive culture of sexual harassment and prevents victims from seeking relief" in court.
