Should Fox News place the Pervert O'Reilly on unpaid leave
until this is cleared up in the courts? Does Fox want to be seen as a News organization that supports perverts and allows them to continue with their propaganda. If they wish to be seen as a credible organization they should place the pervert on unpaid leave until it is sorted out.

10. She Has Not Been Fired........

They want to fire her, but she has not been fired. FOX and O'Reilly have asked the court if they can fire her, the court has not ruled yet, and I doubt they will let them fire her.

I have all kinds of information about O'Dummy and his sexual harassment lawsuit on my web site at www.oreilly-sucks.com

I have it all on the forums because I am getting so many hits it almost used up my entire months bandwidth in 2 days. So if you want to get all the details just visit my web site.

14. Cool, I've visited your site often, and thanks for it
But one of reasons I'm so active this year is because of all the venom spewed from the freepers over the Clinton affair.

Now they hate Mr. Bill as much as the DUers do, but their venom is nothing like here.

Damn, I'll be glad when there is an independent party with some clout.

For now, ABB.

3. ok fire asway
the O'Leily story and Mary Chenney are smokescreens, and we should not even concern ourselves with them

They are part of the distraction techniques used to keep us from talking economy, war and all that

Now to the individual who was sexually harrased, all the luck in the world bringing the bastard down, but talking about it, is doing what they want us to do...

DISTRACTION

So I return to your previous discussion on the economy, the worst since Herbert Hoover occupied the White House... which incidentally AFFECTS ME AND YUO, while O'Leily does not

13. Actually what effects me and America more than anything IMHO
is hate radio and hate TV like O'Reilly, Limbaugh, Savage, North, Liddy, etc. etc. I do not like such a divided nation that we have become and I put the blame entirely on people like O'Reilly. My biggest issue is getting these people off the air and getting Americans back to a United states again. After that happens we can discuss economics or whatever. The most crucial issue facing America today is the poison spewing from talk radio. IMHO How can you talk economics with someone who hates you and everything you stand for?

4. Will Perv O'Leilly pull a "Rush" and go into
some sort of perv rehab? Then all his fans can feel sorry for him and welcome him back with open arms when he's 'cured' of his little demons. (Demons that the left wing somehow unleashed and Bill had nothing to do with, of course)

5. No, they should send him to Iraq
To embed with american kids in the line of fire. Then if he got
kidnapped, the beheading video would help CNN's ratigs.

6. Let's imagine a different scenario
Suppose Dan Rather or Jim Lehrer had been accused of what O'Reilly is accused of.

Do you think CBS or PBS could get by with keeping them on the air?

7. Wait for the tapes
At that point he'll have to "step aside" as he becomes the story.

9. The big blowhard is such a
cash cow, that yanking him from the air will be unthinkable until the tapes are made public. Then, he'll be laughed off the air. It couldn't happen to a more deserving guy or network.

11. The only way Blow will get yanked off the air
is if his ratings start to slide. It's about the money.
