Even O'Reilly's lawyer says "shut up!"
Bill O'Reilly's attorney in the talk show host's sexual harassment lawsuit says he wants O'Reilly's accuser to "put up or shut up."

Ronald Green says O'Reilly's accuser, Fox News Channel producer Andrea Mackris, should reveal whatever proof she has, including any recordings, of alleged sexually charged conversations between herself and O'Reilly.

"Let me say first that we don't know if there have been recordings. We're the ones who have gone to court to tell Andrea Mackris and her lawyers to put up or shut up, not leak selected segments of conversations which may or may not have taken place," Green said on ABC News' "Good Morning America."

Mackris, 33, and her attorney have been ordered to appear for a hearing in New York state Supreme Court on Friday to divulge whether such tapes exist and "show cause" why they should not be opened to examination by lawyers for O'Reilly and Fox News Channel.

then that means they know the things were said, doesnt it?

4. if andrea can't produce tapes or they are ruled illegal or something
will things go back to normal for the ranting raving lunatic sonofabitch or has the damage been done and the die cast for the mofo?

i can think of no sweeter revenge than for o'reilly to be hit with a massive lawsuit and for fox to go down with him in flames screaming for mercy. bwahahahaha.

6. So, is this trial a good guy because he's representing Bill O'Reilly?
Which would make Andrea Mackris's attorney a bad guy? Or how does this work?

If you represent bush* and Cheney, we already know that they're good guys, because the represent bush* and Cheney. BUT, a woman who has an attorney who is representing her on (possible/probable) harrassment and being fired from her job because she didn't like the idea of O'Reilly getting his jollies while intimidating her on the phone, does she have a bad guy representing her? I won't even go into the trial lawyers that represent people who sue rental car agencies, because you know they're good guys. The trial lawyer was representing bush*.

And isn't it his fault because everything's screwed up in this country because of trial lawyers.

Oh shit. This trial lawyer thing just has me all confused?
