Statement of Bill O'Reilly on his Departure from Fox News
Bill O'Reilly.com ^ | April 19, 2017 | Bill O'Reilly

Posted on 04/19/2017 9:42:35 PM PDT by TBP

Over the past 20 years at Fox News, I have been extremely proud to launch and lead one of the most successful news programs in history, which has consistently informed and entertained millions of Americans and significantly contributed to building Fox into the dominant news network in television. It is tremendously disheartening that we part ways due to completely unfounded claims. But that is the unfortunate reality many of us in the public eye must live with today. I will always look back on my time at Fox with great pride in the unprecedented success we achieved and with my deepest gratitude to all my dedicated viewers. I wish only the best for Fox News Channel.

With BOR’s departure I would expect her to move up to at least a daily show on Fox. She’s earned it.

The Progressive long knives have been after O'Reilly for years. Soros invested beaucoup money in Media Matters to bring him down. Personally, I think it was a set up. At that level of business people like him are vulnerable to setups like that.
The death knell is tolling for FNC.

She HAS "earned" it and more; however, it's not happening and we ALL know why....she's a very old and dear friend, not to mention supporter, of President Trump's! She's also CONSERVATIVE and calls 'em as she sees 'em.

So BOR is the Bill Cosby of Fox News minus the date rape drugs.

so who is next, Sean?

Yes. Also, Tucker Carlson is likely on the hit list.


What is with you guys??????

If you do NOT trade Fox jobs for blow jobs, they can’t “do this” to you!!!!! If Bill were single, and swinging with willing girls all day long, THIS WOUDL BE NO ISSUE.

He was abusing his authority over them, using women under his control for HIS SEXUAL JOLLIES or trying to. This is DEAD WRONG and no one, EVEN A CONSERVATIVE, should get to do this.

If he were a lib, all of you would be screaming off with his head. Bad, boorish behavior by authorities is NOT OK and they should be fired.

Hey. He lost and had to pay out already in several cases of this. WHY THE BLEEP did he not stop harassing women?? He is sick. He deserves this.

Only the evil pretend to be good while continuing to act evil. You aren’t good if you are secretly evil. He’s Cosby Lite.

They can’t “come after Sean” because he doesn’t masturbate on the phone with his subordinates. He doesn’t offer lucrative jobs for sex.

So Fox has basically turned itself into a left-wing college campus, where the lefty agitators will get to decide who stays and who goes.

If you don’t think that the Left will try to go after Sean, then you have not been paying attention to them. Remember, they have a long history simply tossing charges out into the public. Bill O’Reilly is an easy target on which they get some batting practice.

We need to find out which sponsors went south on him and arrange a boycott of their products. The penalty from the conservatives must be seen as bigger than the potential penalty from the liberals. We don’t want our only TV news outlet to be ripped apart one host at a time.

O’Reilly may have been one obnoxious, arrogant sob, but he was *our* sob, and the Left was shockingly successful with their boycott to take him out.

Then I got to thinking... those advertisers who left him were no moral high grounders, but amoral Leftists who despised the FOX audience, and were more than happy to help the cause.

Moving out a friend of Trump from Big Media was a pleasure.

We shouldn’t need to accept a new “moral code” where we can’t be alone with a woman.

Pence is smart. 99% of self defense is avoiding vulnerable situations.

BTW, my father taught me when I was twelve to be careful about being alone with girls who could make false accusations. I don't see that as an equivalent to the Taliban forcing the issue. I see is as the equivalent of women avoiding getting drunk at frat parties. Just plain smart.

I know of a particular case where a delivery truck truck hit a school bus. The driver and the police investigator at the scene failed to get the name of every child on the school bus. There were 20 children on the bus, the report said, fortunately none seriously injured, just shaken up. Families of double that number claimed they were on the bus and claimed injuries, and the company had no way to negate the false claims and had to pay out settlements to all forty families.

Last July, after Gretchen Carlson sued the Murdoch-controlled 21st Century Fox and Roger Ailes, the then-head of Fox News Channel, for sexual harassment, Rupert Murdoch told his sons, both Ailes enemies, that paying off Carlson without a fight would mean more lawsuits.

This didn't start with Carlson. Andrea Mackris, an associate producer successfully sued O'Reilly back in 2004 for the same lewd behavior. And, she had the tapes to prove it.

You got it right! The bigger picture is FOX and its death is coming. The concept there are human beings in America not supporting the communist or socialist, is fleeting.

ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MS”LSD”, etc....close to 50% of the population hates, despises and distrusts their coverage/slant. They still haven’t got it.

Nightly news (joke), weekend crap (for Dems alone), papers and their blogs?

Want fairness? You’re reasonable? You’re compassionate? You are a fool!

You cannot believe anything in other thought, other than “white guilt”, “abortion” is compassionate or an MS-13 phuck, drove drunk, raped your daughter or son, dragged them to an abandoned lot and set their bodies on fire.

Think we’ve reached the brink.

If it was just one person, maybe he could make the case. But this is a whole string of people over the years. Either it is true or he and staff are really bad at picking employees. I suspect it is true.

Tell me why the woman didn’t hang up. Me, I’d just hang up. But she didn’t. What does that tell you?
