Former Rep Harold Ford Jr. has been fired from Morgan Stanley after a human resources investigation into allegations of misconduct, HuffPost reports. The company told HuffPost Ford was terminated for "conduct inconsistent with our values and in violation of our policies."
Why this matters: Ford is the first high-profile employee at a Wall Street bank to be fired amid misconduct allegations that have impacted high profile men in media, politics and technology. Ford is a former Democratic member of Congress and political analyst for NBC/MSNBC.
