Bob is right. It’s up to 15 advertisers who flew the Fox “News” nest. Continue to send the press conference video with Lisa Bloom and Dr. Walsh to Billy’s remaining advertisers on Facebook and Twitter.
NOTE TO FOX “NEWS” SUITS
We saved you the trouble of writing a news release. You can change or add to it.
In light of the serious allegations against Bill O’Reilly, we at Fox News Channel and O’Reilly decided it would be in the best interest of both parties to part ways. O’Reilly believes the on-going legal battles facing him and Fox News would be a distraction to the network and his staff. So we accept his decision to resign. We recently renewed his contract to continue his show on our network. We will honor his contract by paying his salary in full. O’Reilly thanks Fox News, his colleagues, staff and viewers for the success of “The O’Reilly Factor.” We wish O’Reilly success in the future.

Orkin has now bolted. I thought with Orkins experience with six legged cockroaches, they would stick with the two legged cockroach, Junior O’Reilly.

Oh the horror. The horror. Bill may soon be reduced to Glenn Beck status. No longer the strutting rooster of Faux. The strutting rooster. More like a gliding rooster. Roaming the halls of corporate. Checking into the lunch room. Zooming over to the break room and snack bar. Seeing what’s up and checking out the action if ya know what I mean. Checking out the chicks and having a little squeeze. The gliding rooster. ..
Except for that one time! Damn Steve Doocy’s butt cheeks!!!
