    More women will now feel they can use the law to make false accusations and easily succeed. I was not being serious with you specifically of course.

    Would that offend you though, if someone said that to you at work? IMHO, Bill O referring to a woman as "hot chocolate" does not even come close to sexual harassment in my book.

    Yet for the first time a few radical Progressive organizations that have some pretty far out feminist views for the first time were able to take even O'Reilly down with bogus accusations. A man who appeared to be untouchable.

    By caving in they just gave their message and those organizations a tremendous amount of power. They will use it to do the same to silence anyone on the right they disagree with and it could significantly move the overton window in the direction of these people that have some really far out views.

    This could potentially indirectly effect liberty candidates and white males in the work place with women looking for a pay off.
    Don't worry about O'Reilly's demise negatively affecting white men. Yes, Bill O is a white man but he is not strongly associated with "white men" the brand. Hear me out, what I am saying is that there is a lot of other attributes/characteristics the normal person would associate with Bill O before white man. And white man is way down the list that it barely registers.

    I am not a white man so I think I can tell you how these sort of things go among non whites. In many professions in America, the white race is the default race that most people do not even notice it anymore. When I think of a TV newsman, the default image that pops in my head is a white man and there is no face in particular that I place on its avatar. The image is so diverse in ideology and looks that you can replace Bill with X white man newsman and that image stays the same.

    I think the only time where I notice the white race is when they operate in a profession or activity they are not typically known for. Say like when I think of a white rapper and that is when the persona come with a strong racial association. Also it happens with white police men cos the news media tries to beat me over the head with it 100x over when something happens with them

    Do not worry, O'Reilly is not going to taint the white race with his alleged sexual misbehaviours. The people who are going to make a strong association with O'Reilly's behaviour with all white men and broad brush white people because of the alleged case never cared for white men in the first place.

    What do you know I had not realized I wrote that as "white males" instead of just males. I have witnessed first hand other races getting accused of bogus accusations by the same or different races over dopey jokes as well. I probably added that since I was thinking at the time how older whites easily get hit with this stuff and the difference is minorities have by pulling out the race card to negate an accusation. A power whites do not have.

    Whether Billo's firing was justified is rather beside the point..

    He was a shameless whore for the socialistic, warmongering status quo and the effective IQ of the American electorate is higher in his absence.

    I blame Fox . The simple solution was to keep homely woman around like the liberals do . LOL . I bet nobody harasses Maddow .
    Do something Danke

    I think the ship has sailed on men's reputation in the work place. This one incident wouldn't really affect men's situation that much. The reputation is the reason why we have sexual harassment education and all the rules about relationships at work.

    Also, is it still considered playing the race card if some minority is complaining about being targeted with some bogus accusation? I always thought it was a play/tactic some minorities use to get out of real offenses.

    Why do you think they haven't targeted Hannity? Hannity is a white conservative male as well. Could it be because O'Reilly is a sexual predator while Hannity is actually a decent person?

    If Hannity is not taken out by the left in the next year, the youngest Murdoch will.

    Yes, there are women who make false accusations and, believe it or not, there are men who are scumbags.

    It depends. Since I find him particularly repugnant as a human being, yes I would find it offensive. I wouldn't sue, though. I have other ways of dealing with douche nozzles.

    I have actually been harassed at work and it sucks. The man who grabbed me got a knee to the groin and fired, though.

    BTW, I posted that pic earlier because I'm glad he's off the air not because I give a $#@! what went on between him and those women. Just like a lot of the men in this thread but for some reason, I'm happy he's gone because of some kind of sisterhood thing?

    ...not being a sexual predator is a rather low bar for being a decent person.

    Well, O'Reilly sets the bar pretty low. 😊

    Indeed

    I'm just much less disturbed with his ass-grabbing (or whatever it was), than with his serial raping of the truth on national TV.

    The fact is that many, many, many people who identify as conservative see O'Reilly as conservative. Many of his positions are held by other conservatives. Does anyone really own a definition?

    What positions of his do you think are not "conservative"?

    He's centrist on just about everything. And a not very learned guy with a couple of argumentative techniques that befuddle way too many interview subjects.

    Geez y'all that think Billy Boy is some form of revered conservative icon to the masses might take a few moments to think it over. The notion that he gains street cred because people "consider" him conservative is just somewhere between silly and surreal. This needs to be rejected outright. It is not reaffirming in any way that the mindless electorate consider him as "conservative." This leads us all no where. Do not give this man any props nor accept that your peers may. He's a shill for the corporations and nothing more.

    Just more bs like Bill Cosby. With Cosby, the women followed him around. Looking for dick and looking for fame. They were partying and they were party girls. They all pile on years later when there's a lawsuit. Cosby is worth 400 million. People follow the deep pockets. Follow the money. O'Reilly is probably the same deal. Bunch of party girls wanting to make it big or suck up to him. Wonder how much he's worth. Probably a mint.

    The man made fortunes by peddling the State's lies and propaganda and has repeatedly spat in the eye of Liberty.

    I have no reason to believe he is innocent of that highly inappropriate behavior and Fox has every reason to terminate him.

    Why the belief that all these women are lying anyway?

    As a libertarian I don't think sexual harassment should even be a crime, unless it involves physical force (or the threat of force). If the working conditions are bad you can quit.
