Bill O’Reilly promises ‘stunning’ information about his firing by Fox News as litigation likely

Speaking via Skype with Newsmax TV last week, Bill O’Reilly revealed that he has plans to fight back against those who brought him down. Clearly foreshadowing litigation but claiming that his attorneys have implored him to offer no information, the former dominant personality of the entire cable news industry is not planning to go away quietly.

Bill is not going away quietly

It is no secret that George Soros-backed Media Matters has long had a campaign against FNC and its dominant personalities. No doubt others helped with the “Get Bill” project. If O’Reilly sues on the basis of tortious interference with his contract or some other basis (libel?), the object may be less monetary damages than the opportunity to depose people and obtain subpoenas for records as part of the discovery process.

The Blaze has summarized the key portions of his comments about his departure from.  Fox News:

 

In hindsight, O’Reilly says he should have fought back against those putting pressure on his advertisers, like his friend Sean Hannity did, who recently also had liberal activists pressure his advertisers in an effort to oust him.

O’Reilly made the comments during an interview on Newsmax TV Thursday.

“In hindsight, Sean did it the right way,” O’Reilly said. “I should’ve done it that way, but I didn’t.”

“This was no accident our sponsors were attacked. This is very well organized. They tried to with Hannity. Hannity actually fought back. I didn’t. I should have. For reasons that I cannot explain now, I did not,” O’Reilly explained.

Trump told you to fight back. You gave in. Not smart Bill!

But you know, I do not hate Bill. I like him a great deal even if I dislike the moderate position he takes on so many issues. He’s a good guy and doesn’t deserve what happened to him. I hope he prevails.

Yes, but the question still remains — how true is it that he sexually harassed those women?

One would think that we could get a good and articulate advocate of conservative principles without the coefficient of assholeness that came as part of Bill O’(added by him as partial indicationof his assholeness) Reilly.

While we’re at it, let’s get some money out there to start a good network to replace FOX which will soon go the way of Radio Shack.

Yes, but the question still remains — how true is it that he sexually harassed those women?

Completely unfounded. His crimes included calling a black woman "hot chocolate" in a jokey manner, or something stupid like that. The slag wasn't even pretty. She was Moochelle levels of unattractive, assuming the joke was even ever made.

[McGavin999]

He needs to fight back. FOX was stupid to fold and they are suffering as a result.

Correct, in this country you are innocent until proven guilty. To infer someone committed a criminal act without being tried is just as bad as saying he is guilty before being tried aka “playing devils advocate”

RE: Completely unfounded

THEN HE SHOULD HAVE FOUGHT BACK AND COUNTER-SUED.

From the Duke Lacrosse team to Sean Hannity and others, these false accusations have gone far enough. It’s time we teach these liars a lesson.

Only now is he thinking of doing it.

The BOR truly needs all the time in make up that Faux News gave him.

Rode hard put away wet

[Red Badger]

From the examples given so far, there wasn’t any...............

I agree bill has always been fair and honest in his criticisms...that is not to say right in them but at least he was an honest broker when talking the issues.

Define sexual harassment.

There is your answer. And dont feel I am being rude towards you.

[crz]

Not in civil cases. That is why the IRS gets away with what they do.

[CommerceComet]

I don’t care if Bill O’Reilly goes away quietly or not as long as he goes away. I never could stand that arrogant, obnoxious bag of wind.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Probably about as likely as Megan sexually harassed Putin with that slit skirt during the interview.

That’s showbiz, no real people care a whit, only the MSM.

[CivilWarBrewing]

Tucker Carlson more than makes up for BOR.

In other news, regarding George Soros:

LOCK HIM UP!

George Soros is a nuisance and a TRAITOR!

[Fido969]

Bill... shut up.

[ssaftler]

"For reasons that I cannot explain now, I did not,” O’Reilly explained.

Um, maybe what they said about you was true?

[Enlightened1]

Bill loses for not getting his show back.

It does not matter even if Bill wins in court.

Remember that USAA folded as well until its membership reminded the management of who its membership was, because the management had been reduced to quivering jelly by the threat of an attack.
