Unless this is a vanity posting, could you link the article or the complaint, so that the rest of us can see it? Couldn't this comment have just gone on one of the already-existing threads?

While I don't agree with O'Reilly on 1/2 of his talking points, I do believe he is good for "Fair & Balanced" News but if true, everyone has to "Pay the Piper", at some point in their life. Let's pray this isn't true, but the complaint is pretty convincing.
I don't care much for Greta - can Linda take HER slot? I love Linda.
Why, lately, do people think that their personal opinions are worthyy of a vanity posting? Your opinion, as stated, isn't particularly insightful. [It's not that I agree or disagree. People just don't come to FR to read vanities.]
Odder still..he seems to ahve a clean record prior to this, otherwise we'd have 50 females already claiming he harassed them. This behavior seems to have started about the SAME time he married a younger, very attractive woman, ( who used to work for him) and fathered two kids...Go figure..

Linda is alright but she sometimes tends to ruin a funny moment or say something off the cuff that leaves you scratching your head.
If she was so abused and harassed, why did she never say anything to anyone, left after almost two years of being harassed, and then after 6 or 7 months, called O'Reilly to get her old job back? Her complaint might sound convincing, but she's going to have to explain her Anita Hill behavior surrounding the issue.
It really makes me sick. I always thought of Bill as a strong, upright man. Stuck by his values. I will have to see a lot more proof before I throw him to the wolves.
This would really be unbelievable. And I know how the evil forces work when they want to take someone down.
They can really wear a person down trying to defend themselves. This will be something to watch.
I'd like to know what happened at CNN when she was there - and why she came back for more from O'Reilly if that was what was happening -
Two sides to every story -
And I see you are getting some heat also - well, it happens - life is full of ups and downs - roll with the punches :)
Take care -
I don't know much about his personal life. Just the little tid bits he gives on his show. But the way he talks about marriage and kids, I just felt that he was really an upstanding guy. Like I said, it's going to take a lot more then this for me to throw him to the wolves.
I am watching his show tonight and watch his body language.
Read her complaint:

It made me cringe, if it's true.
See the Coulter transcript at:

It could easily be:
- BoR really is a sexist pig.
- He did say everything Mackris claims.
- She let it go on, and went back for more.
- She & her lawyers are running a blackmail,
and NOT a legit harassment case.
- She may have tapes
- With any luck, so does BoR (of the negotiations)
- BoR's career is toast, but he's legally innocent
- Mackris & company may end up in jail

You don't see problems in the ovewrt hypocrisy..he slammed Pepsi for hiring the rapper Ludacris..the guy called women "ho's" and "bitches"..now we have O'Reilly's mysogynistic behavior..

growwwwwwl............this is too much.
The world has gone mad, I am convinced of it. Why do people talk out of both sides of their mouths and think they can get away with it?! This makes me sick.
Thanks for the link....
How can a complaint be convincing? She returned to work for him, and has emails saying that she loved he work and the work place.
All good lies are convincing. I don't know if it is true or not, but you sure can't tell from the complaint!
I don't know, ken. But this makes me sick. What the hell is going on here?!
You're welcome. I thought O'Reilly was a blowhard, but a straight-shooter. I have pause after reading this complaint.
It sure sounds real to me.
I wish I still had that email from Greta. She chewed me out. Her unprofessionalism is ... let's say I'm not a fan. ;) I think I posted it here haha.
Remember that commercial with Linda "that face"? I'm glad they stopped that.
