Fox News is planning to sever ties with Bill O’Reilly, the popular host who is embroiled in a sexual harassment scandal, according to a new report.
The Wall Street Journal reported late Tuesday that sources close to the situation reported a final decision regarding the host of “The O’Reilly Factor” could come in the next several days.

Stick a fork in the blowhard. He is done.
One can debate if he was treated fairly.
But it does not matter. He is done.
Fake news? But the liberals aren’t happy unless all conservatives are off the air and off the web.
Don’t feel too sorry for old BO. He has millions and can retire in total comfort. He will probably make almost as much writing as he does with his show, and with a lot less grief.
I hope he doesn’t become homeless.
The end is near for Ted Baxter?
Will O’Reilly’s next book be “Killing Rupert Murdoch: A How-To Manual”?
No need to be happy about this. The only reason BoR is getting this treatment is because he exposes the left constantly. Him being a blowhard is irrelevant.
From a purely personal “selling books” perspective, it’s interesting that Beck at his peak of 3.5m viewers could sell about as many books on his show as Oprah, and O’Reilly could sell as many of HIS books (I don’t know how other people did if he endorsed them).
So now, there is really no one out there-—not even Rush-—who can sell books on TV the way either of those two could.
I predicted it in another thread. BOR was hitting the truth about the problems caused by and affecting black people, so the Left needed his scalp. Can’t talk about things like black single Mothers raising kids by 4-5 different fathers, or the crime statistics.
I have no use for Bill O’Reilly, but for the Left this is practice for taking Trump’s scalp.
It won’t make a difference to Bill. He’ll go on the speaking tour and make a million a speech just like Bill Clinton. And he won’t have to put up with public demand like he does now. He can say anything he feels and if you don’t like it, don’t invite him back. But until then, he will make enough to buy his island home in Tahiti.

So we’ll get Perino or some other moron airhead much worse than O’Reilly.
Whatever the allegations and facts, Bill O’Reilly has served his country and principles well and does not deserve the opprobrium heaped on him by the Left — by people dedicated to destroying our traditional American Judeo-Christian values — and, more significantly, by those on the Right who are sadly distrustful of anyone who is not a “pure” conservative ... a “moving target”, at best.
Replace him with Keith Olbermann.
Yes, let us celebrate the demise of O’Reilly. Now we can move on the the next one. Can’t allow anyone who does not tow the leftist line to be on the air.
And when all the conservatives are off, we can all sit around in wonderment and ask, “what happened?!?”
Sure, O’Reilly was a blowhard and not a conservative. But he took on the liberal establishment and did represent the founding of an alternative network.
I hope Fox enjoys not having their ratings.
I will not mourn the departure of Falafel-Loofah Boy, a true horse’s @$$.
He triangulated as much as Clinton did with the whole, “Well the left AND the right both don’t like me, so I must be right!” shtick.
Never cared for him, he’s not a real journalist and he can spam out more Killing [Insert Dead Person’s name] books if he ever needs the money.
Cable news is dead anyway, and FOX is going to hemorrhage viewers faster than an Ebola patient if they think their future is becoming Nu-CNN.
bor jumped the shark not long after he launched. at some point early on, he became his favorite subject. national events only made his show when they somehow intersected with his current events.
