It appears that those who love Bill O’Reilly will denigrate those who brought such a lawsuit while those who loath him have already found him guilty so I believe it’s important to come up with some objective facts to consider (below). Some will make one group happy the others facts will make the other group happy but unless you’re actually Bill O’Reilly or the accused let’s not pre-convinct or pre-exonarate before Mr. O’Reilly even raises his hand.
(1) Large lawsuits usually are meant to force the hand of the defender to settle before a trial.
(2) Bill O’Reilly has not had a perfectly clean record and has settled a case in the past.
(3) What kind of sexual harassment causes injuries in the millions of dollars.
(4) A person is not guilty or innocent of a crime until all the facts are present.
(5) When a person moves to the top and gets what they want no is often not heard.
(6) There are many from the opposite side of the political aisle that would stoop to any level to hurt their opponents even lie and make events up.
(7) Many seek their 15 seconds of fame anyway they can.
(8) It can be very painful for a woman to bring a sexual harassment lawsuit against a man in power and have her own personal life exposed to the media.
(9) You must have a cause of action before bringing any such action.
