My guess is that since Fox has become CNN-lite, it WON'T be a conservative that would replace O'Reilly.

They want Fox down and out. Pretty neat way to do it. Set him up.

Is it remotely possible that O'Reilly set himself up through his actions or is it automatic that the woman is lying?

Oh, there is no doubt she taped him on the phone...illegally. Oh well.

I wonder if Bill's vibrator is shaped like a leprechaun.

Wow, I was wrong. I guess it -IS- all about the "O"...

Here is what it is all about ...

11. At all times mentioned herein, Defendant Bill O'Reilly was and is the host and "star" of "The O'Reilly Factor". The "O'Reilly Factor" is broadcast on cable television ....(no viewable)... Westwood One and Bill O'Reilly utilize this forum to preach the principles of the so-called "compasionate conservatism" espoused by George W. Bush and the Republican Party. The Defendants also use this forum to preach their belief in family values and to emoan the moral decline of politicians and others in positions of power.

I'll give him a pass.

Let me be on the jury. After clinton got a pass, rape and sexual harrassment do not exist in my book, particurly if the victim is a democrat.

I don't like O'Reilly's style or his socialist conservative views at all, but this complaint looks very shaky unless she has some documentation of his alleged conduct. She may have taped him, but that would probably be inadmissible in court and give rise to an invasion of privacy counterclaim.

Nevertheless, this complaint is indicative of a bad relationship between O'Reilly and one of his long time producers. I also see that he tends to hire female producers. I predict that this puts a huge dent in his popularity and may well ruin his career by the time it is over.

Fox and O'Reilly were attempting to get an injunction against Al Franken and his publisher to prevent them from distributing "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right." The judge dismissed Fox's suit.

There certainly is enough stuff to be pessimistic about and we didn't need this. Things will probably happen fast now. I can see Ailes resigning soon and FOX trying to backfill as best they can. If it were me, O'Reilly wouldn't even be on tonight. CBS and Rather are forever wounded for how they handled the memos. FOX needs to nip it in the bud.

If her allegations are true, then (a) O'Reilly 'set himself up' but (b) she should have gone to Fox management to prevent all of the incidents after the first or second one. It doesn't excuse him, but will likely excuse Fox and certainly casts some doubt on how serious she thought his alleged behavior was.

What we can glean from that was that she REALLY wanted to work with Mr. "O"- (how appropriate that Monika, er moniker is today, eh? Anyway, obviously something drove her to leave her job at CNN and take two jobs to equal the same pay with a guy she can't stand...I don't know what that would be other than insanity.

Why did she come back to work for him? I think O'Reilly and Fox were set up. How stupid of him. Even if only one thing is true, he looks like the idiot he is.

The one extended quote makes me wonder if she has him taped. I have no other explanation as to why any lawyer would quote that extensively if it were a mere recollection; they would say it was a paraphrase in that event.

One of the lawyer's previous clients was nailed for arranging to put up fabricated emails on the cooperate computer to aid his case. Also read the below. It smells.

11. At all times mentioned herein, Defendant Bill O'Reilly was and is the host and "star" of "The O'Reilly Factor". The "O'Reilly Factor" is broadcast on cable television ....(no viewable)... Westwood One and Bill O'Reilly utilize this forum to preach the principles of the so-called "compasionate conservatism" espoused by George W. Bush and the Republican Party.

I'd love to see a picture of the accuser.

O'Reilly could easily deny this by saying he rejects the allegations and the "allegator".
