O'Reilly in trouble!
The O'Reilly response to her suit (or release prior to her suit) indicated that O'Reilly's people believed she had audio tapes of the conversations due to the lenghth of the quotes.
Well, I've read enough. (about half of the complaint)
Hate to say I told ya so but I've been saying for a long time that O'Reilly was going down like Lonesome Rhoades in "A Face in the Crowd."
Only O'Reilly is going down harder. Somehow FOX has to cut their losses.
Dan Rather is smiling, damn it!
Bill: "Just touch my loofah. I promise in the morning you won't falafel."
I really don't care a damn which way this goes.
Maybe Rush will have a primetime show next year;that is if he's let off the hook.
I think the libs are trying to discredit every conservative with power to stop the movement from burying liberalism.
Who's next, Hannity? Didn't somebody threaten to bury him also?
Which probably explains the status quo ;)
"You're thinking of Arthel Neville. No, she isn't the one filing the lawsuit; but I was always put off watching Bill's overtly flirtatious banter with her whenever she was on."
You noticed it too!!
I bet others will come forth unfortunately. It was so obvious with Arthel. Then she abruptly leaves the show.
I notice too, that he is extremely defensive regarding criticsm. He has a grandiosity and a desire to be liked that has permeated the show of late where he has to be overly fair to both sides.
I mean what is this crap about, "we give you the facts but you decide." Doesn't he have the guts, like Sean and Alan to speak their mind?

I haven't read her statement but just seeing BOR you get the impression he would be the type
Thanks for the warning. I'm not sure I want the image of O'Reily in that context lol
Yeah, I took a cloer look at the site, and it appear to be a spoof (from like a day or two ago).
I don't know if I'm the only one that remembers this or not---but last spring Hannity hinted at knowing something about a fellow radio talk show host that could bring him down---some deep, dark secret he said would shock us. Someone had given Hannity the info because this other host had said what had been perceived as derrogatory things about Sean in the past. But Sean declined to elaborate. I thought at the time it was probably O'Blowhard---and it looks like I was right.
I really think he does speak his mind. Not everyone fits into tidy right/left niches. I find both Hannity and Colmes dull because I know what they will say ahead of time.
The blocked quotes from O'Reilly lead me to believe that it came from taped conversations. It was not grammatically correct, it was written in spoken voice, not written (you speak differently than you write). It had a number of O'Reilly-like speech mannerisms, etc.
I dislike O'Reilly but I don't think that he could be as stupid as the details of this lawsuit would lead one to believe he is.
O'Reilly needs to work on that hoop ...
"I'm shocked! Shocked to find gambling going on here!"
She must have recordings, that has to be her ammunition.
If there are recordings it will have to show either she was offended or she was leading him on. Due to the length and number of calls, it would appear that she would have been trying to lead him on - entrapment. Smells to me. Especially, considering the lawyer. One of his previous client got caught trying to get a hacker to put fake emails up on his company network to aid his case.
One immediate problem for the accuser:
If her work environment was so hostile on account of Bill O, then why did she come back to Fox after 6 months at CNN? It doesn't add up.
This is a BS suit. People will say anything now. Exhibit A: Kitty Kelly's new book
Describing those pages as "graphic as all hell" may be an understatement. Yowser!
