Bill O’Reilly is leaving Fox News with a payout of up to $25 million, the equivalent of one year of his salary

For 21st Century Fox, the network’s parent company, payouts related to sexual harassment allegations at Fox News now total more than $85 million. The vast majority of that — up to $65 million in exit packages — is being paid to the men who were ousted from the network because of the harassment allegations.

Mr. O’Reilly, 67, was forced out of the network on Wednesday following the disclosure of a series of sexual harassment allegations against him and an internal investigation that unearthed more women with complaints about his behavior.

Quite right too. Probably cheaper than if he sued and they lost. Not saying he's right or wrong but if fox don't have the nuts to take it to court there's more to the story than we're hearing. If the had proof positive of the allegations they wouldn't have paid a dime.

The same ones who are cheering O'Reilly's exit are the same ones who supported Hillary Clinton whose husband was accused by Anita Broderick of a brutal and vicious rape and who also paid out to Paula Jones $850,000 for the same thing O'Reilly is being accused of. This is why democrats are the most disgusting things to ever walk on the face of the earth. They are all hypocrites and liars. It's not okay to have O'Reilly on the TV but to them it would have been perfectly okay to have a First Husband who is a sexual predator and most likely a man who forced himself on a woman and brutally and violently raped her. Democrats prove time and time again they are human filth not worthy to breath the same air as the good people of the Republian party and that is a fact!

He has spent years fighting for Jessica's Law and Kate's Law and gifted hundreds of millions to Wounded Warriors and other charities from book sales over the years.

....And then there are those sports players, praised by society, role models for the children, who earn millions being thugs........

I am a woman, and have heard numerous remarks from men but I never sued one. In fact until I was required to take a government class on sexual harassment I was unaware some of the stuff men said could be considered sexual harassment. Of course I never thought a man was masturbating when talking to me on a phone or other wise. Guess I missed my chance to sue for millions by saying "I thought" it happened. But than again I don't know any man worth millions I could sue.

Anyway IMO, O'Reilly has been an asset to society quite unlike some of those thugs playing with their balls.
