<p>About 18 advertisers have issued statements about pulling their ads from the show, but have not said they are pulling their ads from Fox News Channel. In fact, FNC says otherwise:</p>

<p>About 18 advertisers have issued statements about pulling their ads from the show, but have not said they are pulling their ads from Fox News Channel. In fact, FNC says otherwise:</p>
<p>“We value our partners and are working with them to address their current concerns about <em>The O’Reilly Factor.</em> ” Fox News EVP Ad Sales Paul Rittenberg said in a statement, adding, “At this time, the ad buys of those clients have been re-expressed into other FNC programs.”</p>
<p>O’Reilly’s program has been the most-watched program in the cable news landscape for 14 years, recently clocking its highest-rated quarter ever. O’Reilly has denied all allegations against him.</p>

<p>The advertiser pullout is becoming increasingly problematic for FNC’s mother company because when Fox News chairman and CEO Roger Ailes exited last summer in a hail of sexual harassment allegations, parent 21st Century Fox had pledged zero tolerance for any behavior that “disrespects women or contributes to an uncomfortable work environment.” The company recently re-upped O’Reilly’s contract and, <em>NYT</em> reports, some of the payments were made since Ailes’ exit.</p>
<p>On Monday, when the NYT story got snatched up by other media outlets in a big way, Lexus told CNN of it’s <em>Factor</em> ads that it seeks “to partner with organizations who share our company culture and philosophy of respect for all people,” adding, “We will continue to monitor the situation and will take any appropriate action through our media buying partners.”</p>

<p>$13M in Settlements Paid to Women Who Accused Bill O’Reilly of Harassment<br/>April 2, 2017, 10:16 AM</p>
<p>Fox News and Bill O’Reilly have paid out around $13 million in settlements to five women who accused O’Reilly of sexual harassment or verbal abuse, the New York Times reports. The women, who all either worked for O’Reilly or appeared on his top-rated television program, “complained about a wide range of behavior, including verbal abuse, lewd comments, unwanted advances and phone calls in which it sounded as if Mr. O’Reilly was masturbating, according to documents and interviews,” per the Times investigation. The women were given the payouts in exchange for agreeing not to pursue litigation or make their allegations public. Some of the settlements were completed in secret, and two happened after former Fox News chief Roger Ailes was dismissed following his own sexual harassment scandal last year. The earliest O’Reilly settlement happened in 2002.</p> Bill O'Reilly's Alleged Lies…tag:12160.info,2015-05-22:2649739:Comment:15598782015-05-22T20:11:59.274Ztruthhttps://12160.info/profile/adap2k
