O’Reilly sure looks good in his most recent pics. Why would any woman have sex with him. Or with Him? He: will you have sex with me? She: Yuck! He: it could earn you 32 million. She: I’ll think about it.

There’s a world out there, just getting exposed, that most of us were unaware of.

A world where Bill O’Reilly has carte blanche contractually to assault women. A world where Harvey Weinstein has spies, resources, and intelligence that most nations would envy; and a world where plutocrats safely store their money in countries with lax tax laws to avoid paying their fair share.

As income disparity has widened, it’s no surprise that such heinous behavior has become almost the norm with the plutocrats. And this is across all nations.

So as long as he settled instead of going to trial he would keep getting paid. There’s a weird economics problem for you.

So we’ve done the jokes, and made our snide remarks but why was the last women able to screw Bill out $32 M while the other women’s settlements together wouldn’t add up to that. Did she know what’s in Bill’s previous contracts? And then Gretchen came along and Fox said enough is enough and had that clause removed? Which also leads me to ask did Bill’s lawyer read the last contract, why did have Bill sign it if this wasn’t in it?

It could be a game of Clue, Billo in the shower with a falafel.

I’ve heard that there might be some videos of one particular plutocrat that may come to light that will shatter everything.

Is there any possible way the human race can get a restraining order against Bill O’Reilly?

Britain would be crazy to let Murdoch buy up any more media outlets of any kind. IT would mean the end of hearing the truth. Just look at the Damage and Division Rupert Murdoch’s FOX News, Wall Street Journal and the New York Posts has done in America. They became the propaganda channel of the extreme far right. UK don’t do it.

So for all his denials about his behavior, old Billo had it put in his contract that he couldn’t be fired if someone called him on it. If that’s not an admission that he’s aware of just what his behavior is… And Fox was dumb enough to sign it.

For about $6M tax-free, I might give him a handy-J in the alley. Maybe. And only if I’m allowed to close my eyes and wear a gas mask.

I am dying to find out what happens to FoxNews and all of it’s non-journalist on-air personalities after the ancient Rupert Murdoch finally bites the big one.
Actually, I’m dying to find out that Rupert Murdoch just bit the big one.

The Big Boys really do cover for each other, don’t they? I bet they’re all pissed that Harvey W brought this all to the forefront and women are finally being believed when they speak up.

Who the HELL needs such a clause in their employment contract? This didn’t cause Fox to go “Hmmm. Could be a problem.”?

Wouldn’t this open up Fox to legal liability from victims?
i.e., Fox turned a blind eye to rape etc., so it is proof that victims had no recourse within the Fox establishment. I ain’t a lawyer, but there could be some real lawsuits thrown around based on this.

For O’Reilly, better hide under a rock. The next interview should be “why did you have an no-rape conviction clause in your contract unless you raped or planned to rape someone?”

Well wouldn’t this go hand in hand with others in management digging the dirt on and threatening the women who came forward?

The young lady that took the $32Huge? She had to have full color video with surround sound audio. She slid the USB stick across the table and BillO’s attorney put it in his laptop. Twenty seconds later the attorney says “Pay the lady.”

OK, on the one hand I believe in the rule of law. Allegations have to be PROVEN to receive convictions.

On the other hand, Bill O’Reilly evidently abuse HUNDREDS of women for years, with disgusting behavior fully paid for by Fox News. In the end, Fox paid hundreds of millions to Billo’s victims.

You know what? PC behavior isn’t some mysterious standard, it essentially amounts to nothing more than making an effort to be polite. O’Reilly’s behavior was so far beyond any standard of normal human decency as to be criminal. It is a FELONY to act like Bill O’Reilly did at Fox news. If he didn’t pay off his woman victims (32$M in his last settlement), he’d be facing indefensible criminal charges. That’s the reality.

So how badly do we need Billo back in the national discussion of politics? Frankly, I for one don’t want him back until he publicly apologizes to the dozens of women he abused. Then I might consider it.

Maybe you know the answer to this: in the text of the article it says O’Reilly paid 32 million------did that money come directly from his own pocket? If it didn’t, then who supplied it?

What a stupid contract. Any corporation that allowed a contract like that is asking for trouble. Whatever happened to including a morals clause or should I say a clause in the event of immoral behavior. What a farce. It still doesn’t explain the other personalities at Faux or the culture of sexual harassment and abuse other women faced there. Its still a den of sleazebags from the looks of it.
