Why would she have settled if she had recordings?

She previously rejected a $4 million settlement. The final one was probably at least twice that...

Couldn't have happened to a slimier guy.

Hmmm...I read that as "slimmer" guy at first. Go figure...

Yeah, but that woman was nuts. I don't know; I'm not a big O'Reilly fan, but I think he might not be as guilty as seems.

Eh, who cares anyway? He's just a (loud) mouthpiece.

That guy's such an egocentric neanderthal schmuck. You'd have to be a brain-dead slug (or "NASCAR Fan" as Superman would say) to watch his show. I'll think of the settlement as someone getting compensated for all the times I've accidently listened to him as I'm channel surfing.

And I'm fairly conservative!

Too bad everything is secret, it would be interesting to know how exactly much money was involved.

Even if he got a chance to do a lot of dirty talking it probably worked out to a pretty expensive per minute charge.

Bill should just stick with the 1-900 numbers. It will be cheaper in the long run for him.

She absolutely had a case, (and tapes), she set a trap once he started harrassing her. Not saying that she is an angel, (I have no idea), but bet your bottom dollar that O'Reilly and his lawyers bent over and squealed like little pigs for her lawyers.

That was an expensive squashing for him, I just hope and anticipate that those tapes still leak out somehow. He is a phony POS.

Bill's wife must be proud of her husband's superior morality.

You make fun of Limbaugh for Oxycontin abuse. You make fun of O'Reilly for the harrassment lawsuit.

I guarantee that if these things had happened to someone who shares YOUR political viewpoint, you'd be up in arms. Many of you continue to defend President Clinton even to this day.

Are Bill O'Reilly's viewpoints so intellectually challenging that you can't develop a rational argument against them? MUST you escalate everything into a personal attack?

What goes around, comes around. Someday, maybe, the wheel of Karma might roll right over YOU. Would you be laughing then?

Big difference. Bill Clinton never preached about the evils of sex, "hummers are wrong" or any such nonsense. Bill Clinton was guilty of a horny indiscretion; Bill "me-so-horny" O'Reilly and Rush "pop 'em" Limbaugh were guilty of abject hyprocrisy.

Are Bill O'Reilly's viewpoints so intellectually challenging that you can't develop a rational argument against them?

Any time someone does, he yells at them to shut up and cuts their mike.
