Republican presidential candidate, Herman Cain, categorically denied allegations of sexual harassment in a Fox News interview on Monday morning, his first comments on a story made public by Politico on Sunday.
“I was falsely accused while I was at the National Restaurant Association,” Cain said. Â He added, “Never have I committed any sort of sexual harassment.”
Cain also said he was not aware of any cash settlements paid out by the National Restaurant Association to two women, cited in the Politico story.
“If the restaurant association did a settlement, I wasn’t even aware of it and I hope it wasn’t for much,” he said. “If there was a settlement, it was handled by some of the other officers at the restaurant association.”
