"Bring Him Down," was the driving force behind the sexual harassment movement against Bill O'Reilly said Lisa Bloom, the woe is me, lady attorney to female members of The View. While wearing a bright red, short sleeve dress with V cut at the neck to draw an arrow to her cleavage, Attorney Bloom told Whoppie Goldberg, "An important part of our legal strategy (was) to Bring Him Down." A thigh shot could be seen as she spoke from her vantage point in the audience. Her client Perquita Burgess told all: "I felt triumphant very cathartic." Burgess, dressed all in black including an enormous Afro, described to Whoppie that Bill O'Reilly made her feel uncomfortable because he said, "Hey, hot chocolate," when he walked by her desk when she was a temp at FOX way back in '08. Burgess also said his throat clearing sounds sounded like "grunting, groaning." Can you believe this? A legal term of art involves attorneys saying something like, "When there's money involved, plaintiffs come out of the woodwork." But Bloom assured The View that money was not their aim here, perhaps because the hot chocolate remark had cooled too much since its utterance way back in 2008.
I go back in my memory to my own experiences travelling to Japan and Athens, Greece, to put some of this only in America, sexual harassment silliness into perspective. I was in the lovely home of my foreign exchange student and her husband, a brilliant young ophthalmologist who laughed as we talked about the Clarence Thomas Congressional hearings. Remember way back then when Anita Hill was testifying about the pubic-hair-on-the-coke-can? My host told me that he and his colleagues just thought this entire televised event was hilarious. "We just laughed; we couldn't believe it," he said. The Japanese doctors were incredulous...

Jokes on them, O’Reily’s not a conservative
Hopefully they will go after Shep next.
Someone told me Bloom is Gloria “the female pimp” Allreds daughter. If that is true, it says it all about her credibility.
Shep is right where they want him.
Thank you Bill.
Shep is their cuckold hero...
Couldn’t stop myself - I had to google her and see what she looks like. Good grief. Even the appearance on The View was brainless but then who is she talking to? If O’Reilly did say the things she reported (how many years later?), he probably figured the poor girl (Oh! Oh!) didn’t receive too many compliments and said them to make her feel good about herself. I would wager that her body is as BIG as her hair.
There has to be a primer out there somewhere so when the mood strikes them (offended females), they can pull it out and look for a phrase that fits their complaint....
Heard plenty of remarks in the work place for 60 years but nothing that I considered offensive or worth reporting to any boss. Only people LOOKING to be offended are going to pay any attention to casual remarks. Shrug and walk on!
O’Reilly claims bogus complaints were settled with millions of dollars of payments. That was wrong to do. He got what he paid for.
I am the same way. Call old-fashioned I like it when a man compliments me.
