Sources say Fox has made it clear that any payments to Mackris would come solely from O'Reilly.

The former school teacher has cancelled several media appearances to promote his new advice book, "The O'Reilly Factor for Kids."

The book contains a chapter on sex: "Here's a big word for today: dehumanization. ... Guys, if you exploit a girl, it will come back to get you. That's called 'karma.' "

Green told The News that when Mackris was a White House intern she gave herself the nickname "Andrea Mattress."

What is it with WH interns.....

As I was channel surfing yesterday, I caught VH1 spoofing O'Reilly. They actually had a clip of O'Reilly talking to this girl at work in the past. He was calling her "Makris."

It's a sad situation. O'Reilly has a large ego and that is what is taking him down in this case. I feel sorry for his wife and children. Mackris knew what she was doing and she is going to make some money off of this but I doubt she will have a normal life after this. Is the money really worth it? I guess for her it is.

I can't begin to imagine the hurt, pain, anger, and embarrassment that Mrs. O'Reilly is feeling! Field dressing Mr. O'Reilly would be my suggestion.

The O'Reilly Factor redux. He spends a tremendous amount of time being smug about his "conquests."

You know that it takes two people to have a conversation. The fact that Mackris had a book about O'Reilly in the works, prior to her return to FOX, makes her position very shakey.

I have not yet seen a picture of Mrs. O'Reilly. Is she the same age as Makris?

I'm not certain about her age. She recently had a child, though.

It also makes him stupid, as he called himself on his radio show the other day.

People should be careful what they believe from NY Daily News reports. Right now, there is no evidence that Makris/Morelli even have these tapes, let alone that they have produced them, played them for opposing counsel or permitted the expert examination of them. I'm no fan of O'Reilly but I'm just going to wait and see what comes out of this.

If her allegations are true then IMO FoxNews should sever its relationship with O'Reilly. A settlement agreement would indicate to me that he is guilty of a substantial portion of her charges. If he is guilty then he is in the same league with Dan Rather. Arrogance before honor and truth. I had begun to lose favor with O'Reilly before this happened anyway so it will not be much of a loss if I can no longer be a part of his audience.

There may or may not be tapes, but did you ever listen to O'Reilly's radio show? He sexually harassed his co-host on the air.

Frankly, I have never been impressed with O'Reilly's intelligence. His problem is that his ego is larger than his IQ.

Good counsel. I absolutely dislike O'Reilly, but I too will await more facts.

You know, the more I think about this, the more I suspect that a woman who is tough enough to loudly sue Fox News and O'Reilly is tough enough to put up with some sexual banter without damage to her psyche.

Her psyche isn't damaged. She just wants some of O'Reilly's big bucks, and he's probably going to give her some if she has the tapes.
