Wow, one of the reasons i watched Fox
Fox News is cutting ties with Bill O’Reilly, the biggest star in its 20-year history, after mounting allegations of sexual harassment and inappropriate behavior prompted the network to end his program.
“After a thorough and careful review of the allegations,” parent company 21st Century Fox said in a statement, “the company and Bill O’Reilly have agreed that Bill O’Reilly will not be returning to the Fox News Channel.”

Tomi Lahren- Says she is pro-choice and is fired.
Bill O'Reilly- 7 accusers come out and was finally fired?... actually his sponsors fired him. This was news for awhile and Fox did nothing....
Conservative double standard?

no actually 50 sponsors withdrew their ads so fox had no choice but to let him go before they lost all their advertising revenue.
PS; his book "killing the rising sun" was great

Two different networks, two different situations.

i agree.. i was just connecting the dots... Fox obviously had no issue w/ the other lawsuits that O'reilly paid out on as did fox... but yea... that sounds about right.. Once this got the ball rolling, thats when they did it
