Welp! Fox News Fires Bill O'Reilly Over Sexual Harassment Allegations
Who would've thought that after years and years of Bill O'Reilly saying the most disrespectful stuff, that he would actually be fired one day.
Fox News made the bold move as O'Reilly battles sexual harassment claims and racial discrimination towards former female employees. Is that a surprise to anybody?!
"After a thorough and careful review of the allegations, the Company and Bill O'Reilly have agreed that Bill O'Reilly will not be returning the Fox News Channel," a 21st Century Fox officials said in a statement.The situation was spurred by revelations in the New York Times that he and Fox News had quietly paid out $13 million in hush money to five women who had accused him of abuse and harassment.O'Reilly was then abandoned by more than half of his advertisers.The controversial and frequently condescending "O'Reilly Factor" host also came under fire by former Fox News guest Wendy Walsh who allegedduring an early-April press conference that "The O'Reilly Factor" host propositioned her at a Los Angeles hotel bar more than four years ago. Walsh said that after she refused, O'Reilly retaliated by taking an offer for a contributor job off the table.To make matters worse for O'Reilly a new accuser also came forward this week. -(NY Daily News)
