Bill O'Reilly: sexual harassment claims

[Sideroxylon]

Well the allegations are that O'Reilly attempted to wield his position of power to get women to have sex with him. Perhaps Trump's "when you’re a star they let you do it. You can do anything" doesn't work out as well for O'Reilly or the kind of women he tried to extort sex from.

One of these women is said to have phone recordings and perhaps why O'Reilly didnt fight it out on court as Trump suggests he should have.

 

[Trebuchet]

Noted sexual predator Donald Trump says he doesn't think O'Reilly did anything wrong. Why am I not surprised?

You can't explain that.

Damn. Now I have to rule against O'Reilly.

Are you telling me women dislike O'Reilly more than Trump?

This probably needs a poll.

This probably needs a poll.

"Trump, O'Reilly, or death?"

Advertisers are jumping from the O Reilly show like it had the plague.

Is he going to rename the show The No Sponsor Zone?

Not the first time for old Bill. You'd think he'd have learned something by this point.

Not that I equate the two (though Im sure some conservatives do) but if this takes him down, that's probably the two biggest names in the business with he and Brian Williams being banished in disgrace.

I can see people thinking this lends credence to Trumps claims about journalists being horrible people, even though he and his supporters like O'reilly.

Of course Bill lied even more the Williams about falsely being in war zones and no one cared.

But conservative news is not held to the same standards of fact as real news.

Ratings have gone up with people wanting to see a train wreck. Meanwhile sponsors have been withdrawing.

Oh, you watch?

I just learned what they don't care about in the election. I wonder if Bill pulls a trump and barges into their dressing rooms, or are not enough of his guests teens for that kind of behavior to fly?

Thank you.

De nada. Did it address your questions? I just posted it on the run.

The fate of O Reilly depends now on how much of a locomotive he is;ie somebody whose ratings are strong enough so that they draw an audience that sticks around for other Fox Shows. They might keep his on for htat reason. Fox will be watching the audience drop for the shows after O Reilly very closely.

Yes, the bottom line is always the bottom line even at Fox.

However, those ratings don't matter one iota when there are no advertisers.
