sexual relationship with Ailes, I still don't get how having sex with him would "solve" the problems Gretchen was complaining about. It's obvious what he would get out of it, but there doesn't seem to be any offer that he would actually do anything for Gretchen if she acquiesced. Perhaps he felt the root of Gretchen's complaints was her unrequited passion for him.

Which brings us back to ew.
