Times reporter Michael Schmidt pushed back against this claim on Twitter, saying the report mentioned the affidavit twice.
We have no way to know if these claimed numbers are accurate. It is odd that FNC fired O’Reilly right after giving him a new 4 year contract. They have really suffered in prime time without him.
No doubt we're in an era of assassination by accusation but using words like 'out of context' makes me suspicious.
Court orders can be revised, O'Reily is old enough to shift some assets out of reach and name all names and settlements. Then litigate it all over again.
Maybe Bill is just a nice guy and wanted Lis to have the money.
$32 million for sexual harassment is unbelievable. These settlements used to be in the 10’s of thousands at most. He could have wrongfully killed someone and only had to pay a few million. His reputation was trash anyway why pay tens of millions to protect it?
Didn’t I read elsewhere that he made another payout in millions? The guy is walking scum.
I can only imagine BOR’s reaction when Lis Wiel added her name to the complaint. “et tu Wiel?”
Her side: he trolled me when I was first hired. I did not complained, at least officially
His side: looks to me like I did nothing wrong, or made Lis Wiel feel uncomfortable.
Then when opportunity struck, Lis Wiel threw away her future in media and “retired” comfortably at BOR’s and Murdoch’s expense.
Blew me away. I liked them both. I confess I have trolled, but we would not be here if our ancestors didn’t.
As for NYT fairness, what did we expect? They leave out the lack of official intra company complaints and include BOR’s divorce custody complaints.
