Difficult to see Maddow remaining at MSNBC if that is the case, she is as openly hostile to Trump as one can be.

I doubt she will leave. She's a bit popular with her proprietary lefty crowd and also has bizarre followings among various non-liberals like Rick Santorum. She is also in a position to bring in the likes of KellyAnne Conway and other Trumpies onto her show, which keeps things interesting. The two evening slots that are vulnerable imo are Chris Hayes and Lawrence O'Donnell's. IMO, MSNBC should give the likes of Kornacki or Bianna Golodryga one of those slots to spice things up a bit.
 
Always knew O'Reilly was a bit shady but just wow..... :lol:




"The letter includes allegations that Mr. O’Reilly had called Ms. Huddy repeatedly and that it sometimes sounded like he was masturbating. He invited her to his house on Long Island, tried to kiss her, took her to dinner and the theater, and after asking her to return a key to his hotel room, appeared at the door in his boxer shorts, according to the letter."

This may actually be the end of O'Reilly.

One of the links says that a previous settlement had the same allegation (the phone masturbation). That was in 2004.

Yeah but this is at a time of Ailes getting chased out, the release of Bil's pal Drumpf's access hollywood tape and allegations that Fox covered up the Huddy allegations and allow O'Reilly to continue his show. That is a toxic cocktail that may be too much for Murdoch to stomach. If he can get rid of Ailes then he can easily get rid of O'Reilly.

Well at least he's got material for his next book, Bill O'Reilly - Killing the mood.

Nah, if Trump can get away with what he has done, then some "light sexual harassment" won't be an issue. Saw this on reddit the other day, where a republican congressman called Peter King had this to say about Obama wearing a tan suit to a press conference.
There's no way any of us can excuse what the president did yesterday. When you have the world watching... a week, two weeks of anticipation of what the United States is gonna do. For him to walk out — I'm not trying to be trivial here — in a light suit, light tan suit, saying that first he wants to talk about what most Americans care about the revision of second quarter numbers on the economy."
And the same man had this to say about Trump after he had admitted to assaulting women.
"Listen, the language is bad. It's indefensible. But you hear it. Whether it's an army barracks. Whether it's the back room of a TV studio. Whether it's congressmen sitting around a bar at night."

Hadn't heard anything about him being sick.

Me neither, but I haven't been watching Fox since Trump got elected, just haven't been able to put it on because I wouldn't be able to handle to smug pricks gloating. :( Agree Colmes was one of the good guys too. He will be missed.

So is that Fake news wanker Oreily still in a job??

Unfortunately yes.
 
It really is a cesspool isn't it? Hannity is one of the most grotesque men on TV.
 
This story appears to have legs today...



It'll be interesting to see what his defense would be in court because realistically, you can't explain that.
 
Fox News CFO Offered Immunity In Sexual Harassment Investigation

 
That awkward moment when Fox News bigots end up accountable for sexual harassment, but the president doesn't.
 
Cenk reads a transcript from one of O'Reilly's *** phone sex encounters with a woman who was recording him. :lol:

8:35

 
:lol: O'Reilly's show apparently ended abruptly after 45 minutes tonight and switched to Shep Smith talking about Syria.
