There are a few things we learned during Herman Cain’s appearance on Fox News. The first is that the central claim in the Politico story has now been corroborated: Cain himself admits that he was accused of sexual harassment while CEO of the National Restuarant Association, though he claims the accusations were false.

“I have never sexually harassed anyone,” Cain told Fox. “And yes, I was falsely accused while I was at the National Restaurant Association, and I say falsely, because it turned out, after the investigation, to be baseless.”
