Dana Perino cannot complete a sentence without ‘ahhh’ or ‘errr’. imho, probably because she ‘walks the line’ to ensure political correctness. Ugh.

I recall orielly flat out lying about Freerepublic on more than one occasion.
He was referred to as “O’Really” for awhile afterwards.

Political Correctness and business shenanigans by Fox killed Red Eye too.

Red Eye brought in the Millennials and no other Fox show other than Jesse Waters was doing that.

Bring back Red Eye with Tom Shillue if Fox wants to make any inroads with the young voter.

Cancelling Red Eye was the last straw for me when it comes to watching Fox except for FBN occasionally.

Red Eye would bring me back as would Mark Steyn.

Rino Brit Hume - nope.

..don’t forget Jasper. 2 for the price of 1.

He’d probably have higher ratings.

Good Riddance! Too bad he wasn’t fired for the right reasons.

From what I can tell, O’Reilly committed no rapes. The new allegations are BS.

This was an organized take down. The NYT on April 1st came out with a report. Then within 2 weeks 50 companies took down the ads on FNC.

http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/new-bill-o-reilly-accuser-street-protests-hit-fox-news-n747966

Attorney Lisa Bloom announced Tuesday that she is representing a new client who is accusing O’Reilly of “sexual and racial harassment.”

Bloom did not reveal the identity of the new client but said that she called the hotline Fox News set up last week to investigate claims against O’Reilly.

The attorney told The Hollywood Reporter that her client was called “hot chocolate” by O’Reilly and “was afraid if she told him to knock it off she'd get fired.”

Look at the demonstrators at FNC HQ. This was a very successful take down.

O’Reilly’s exaggerated reports of the Buenos Aires riot are largely claims that could be argued away by reasonable people on semantics. The claims on Fox News and in his Kennedy books, on the other hand, that he was outside the Florida house where Lee Harvey Oswald friend George de Mohrenschildt was staying when he killed himself in 1977 have been widely debunked. As has a story told multiple times about seeing nuns “get shot in the back of the head” in El Salvador while he was there covering the civil war there for CBS News, when in actuality he now admits to having arrived after the event and was only referring to ‘images’ of the assassination. The killing books alone are riddled with historical and factual inaccuracies, he always talks about wanting to separate myth from history, but I seriously don’t think he knows the difference.

Ok, Clinton never came across as having a moral compass, but Cosby??? Americas Dad? Pull your pants up and stay in school?? Cosby definitely was seen as a good human being.

O’Reilly always seemed an arrogant person , not kind of decent.

I’m going to say what I always say

We have way too many ignorant stupid people on this forum who mean well but shoot off emotive and lemminglike

It’s sad

And I don’t like OButthead but folks here should read up what happened

He was the target of an orchestrated take down by the left and fembot...same thing

Any of you dumbasses know who Lisa Bloom is?

I’m happy with Eric and tuck and Martha the so hot but Buttheads firing is a loss strategically

And I want Watters too

That list left off a few people. As long as Bill McCuddy was listed they could have added Lisa Pinto. They both did the same job.
