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.....

Okaaaaaay....

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."

[Eva]

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.

[Bonaparte]

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.

[freespirited]

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.

Meanwhile Ms Mattress remains aloofah.

IT'S PURE O'REILLY

[ozzymandus]

Has either party offered a single molecule of fact in this case, or is this all just a bunch of loose chatter and speculation?

[Vicki]

I have noticed on his television and this radio show that he has said sexual things that I thought were inappropriate. How could he be so stupid given his success, that he would allow himself in such a situation?

Another liberal bites the dust.
