O'Reilly in trouble!
*snicker*
*snickersnickersnicker*
O'Reilly is a blowhard and totally in love with himself, but he's not stupid. I'm not buying it. At the very least, there is a lot more to the story.
This is a BS suit. People will say anything now. Exhibit A: Kitty Kelly's new book
I won't argue any of that. All I'm saying is: if she's got tapes, Bill O'Reilly is a goner, whether she wins this case or not.
On further reflection, I think O'Reilly's extortion suit is probably a reaction to the likely fact that she does have tapes, and has suggested that she will release them.
I think the circumstances are such that there's probably no question that he made the calls as alleged. The question now is simply one of whether he can weather the storm.
For some reason, I'm reminded of Psalm 37....
Post 221, I changed my mind after reading the material on the smoking gun. O'reilly, what a puke!
Nope. If she didn't use the resources made available by Fox to deal with perceived harassment (and I heard she didn't) then she's screwed. This case won't go anywhere.
Personally I believe it in part because he seems to love sleeze. He's had porn stars on, he's had nudie web babes on, he's had brainless b list stars on. What other newsman is going to interview a porn star on a hard news program? Why? And he is very defferntial to them, not asking them the most obvious questions: "don't you feel degraded having sex for money" "is there really any difference between prostitution and porno" "how likely do you think you are to get AIDS" "what did you tell your mom" "what will you tell your kids" . From this I take it he sees nothing wrong with porno. Well if that's your feeling then why not ask your coworkers about sexual topics?
Saying that he understood the attacker could have believed she was raped is not the same as admitting to rape. The intial intercourse was consensual - but with today's rape laws, that doesn't seem to matter. To some folks, if a woman declares sex to be a rape, it's a rape, the facts be damned.
Well, I love Sean Hannity and if they gave him his own show w/a different name would be great.
I think there's a special place in hell for those who betray people. (Notice 60 minutes just profiled him? Word was out on B.O. long ago, I reckon.)
"Big Bill" has just entered that hell and will be following Andrew Dice Clay into obscurity.
Hannity is almost the poster boy of boredom to a liberal. I think they might strain themselves looking for a mark on his record.
He was on the radio today--talking about his upcoming interview with Kerry. This is great news for us--get discredited and interview Kerry! Coincidenzia?
Michael Moore promised some Fox fireworks this year
Oh lord, I can hear it now.
The web site is obviously jammed with visitors and it's hard to navigate.
However, I did start reading one passage of a fantasy O'Reilly described of going to a hotel, rubbing her with a loofa (first and only other time I ever heard of one was in Caddy Shack), etc.
Here's my point: this fantasy went on and on. If she had truly been disgusted, why didn't she promptly hang up? I have to assume that either: 1. she really didn't mind; or 2. she was leading him on for purposes of getting evidence for her law$uit.
Note that we only hear what O'Reilly had to say during the fantasy. Was she dead silent during the entire time, or did she, more likely, make some encouraging sounds or statements?
If this ever went to trial, I believe we'd find out that she was far from a totally unwilling victim.
Ok, will be careful cause if you tape calls you need to find out if you are a one parety state or two. IN a two you will have to tell the person you are talking to you are taping them, on a one you don't have to tell them at all. Thankfully i live in a one party state cause i tape a lot of calls.
No wonder Kerry has stayed away from his show..he probably knew this was coming.
Factor gear dildos are coming soon. Or how about an inflatable O'Reilly doll with two big heads?
how the hell do you know? (please note the question i asked).
