It wasn't the accusations of sexual assault that got him fired. It was the loss of revenue when companies didn't want to advertise during his show.

Fox knew about the sexual allegations for years and did nothing until the profit margin was negatively impacted.

The internet never forgets. He's always been an asshat.

It takes guts for a woman to come forward given that there are so many assholes like you to claim she is lying.

It's far worse if it's true, however. Fox didn't fire their creator and biggest cash cow, Ailes and O'Reilley, for being boy scouts.

So, you're cool with ol' white grampy oogling a black staffer and calling her "hot chocolate"? Not to mention 21st Century Fox paying $13 million to silence five other victims of Unca Bill-Oh's raging testosterone.

What a bunch of bull shit. What is the definition of sexual harassment ? Apparently it is whatever the woman says it is.

We know what murder is, or robbing a liquor store.

But "leering", what the hell does that mean ?

Or, being referred to as "hot chocolate" . Heaven forbid, she is damaged for life.

What happens is they just made the glass ceiling thicker. It is simpler to just not hire women.

Lets say: Given the history of bosses-- demanding sex or else, a person, especially one high up in the power structure, should try wholeheartedly to maintain a professional atmosphere.

BTW men are also sexually harassed.

It's just business, sparky. Their advertisers spoke and ended this lecherous old man's career. $13 million dollars in hush money says you're full of said bovine excrement, ZJ.

And then there's the 25 million to the pervert for getting fired. What a country!
