Bill OReillys reign as the top-rated host in cable news came to an abrupt
and embarrassing end on Wednesday as Fox News forced him out after the
disclosure of a series of sexual harassment allegations against him and an
internal investigation that turned up even more.
.
Mr. OReilly and his employers came under intense pressure after an article
by The New York Times on April 1 revealed how Fox News and its parent
company, 21st Century Fox, had repeatedly stood by him even as he and the
company reached settlements with five women who had complained about
sexual harassment or other inappropriate behavior by him. The agreements
totaled about $13 million.
.
Since then, more than 50 advertisers had abandoned his show, and womens
rights groups had called for him to be fired. Inside the company, women
expressed outrage and questioned whether top executives were serious about
maintaining a culture based on trust and respect, as they had promised
last summer when another sexual harassment scandal led to the ouster of
Roger E. Ailes as chairman of Fox News.
.
That left Mr. OReillys fate in the hands of the Murdoch family, which
controls 21st Century Fox. In the end, according to two people familiar
with the decision, Rupert Murdoch and his sons, James and Lachlan, made
their call after reviewing the results of an internal investigation that
found that multiple women had reported inappropriate behavior by Mr.
OReilly.
.
After a thorough and careful review of the allegations, the company and
Bill OReilly have agreed that Bill OReilly will not be returning to the
Fox News Channel, 21st Century Fox said in a statement.
.
During an appearance at an event in New York on Wednesday evening, James
Murdoch stopped to answer a question about the decision, saying: We did a
thorough investigation, a thorough review, and we reached a conclusion.
Everything that we said in our statement is all you need to know.
.
For a generation of conservative-leaning Fox News viewers, Mr. OReilly,
67, was a populist voice who railed against what they viewed as the
politically correct message of a lecturing liberal media. Defiantly
proclaiming his show a No Spin Zone, he produced programming infused with
patriotism and a scorn for feminists and movements like The War on
Christmas, which became one of his signature themes.

.
In a statement later in the day, Mr. OReilly praised Fox News but said it
was tremendously disheartening that we part ways due to completely
unfounded claims.
.
But that is the unfortunate reality many of us in the public eye must live
with today, he said. I will always look back on my time at Fox with great
pride in the unprecedented success we achieved and with my deepest
gratitude to all my dedicated viewers. I wish only the best for Fox News
Channel.
.
Mr. OReillys departure is the latest development in a tumultuous nine
months at Fox News. In the aftermath of Mr. Ailess dismissal in July, the
Murdochs pledged to clean up the networks culture. But since then, it has
been hit with new sexual harassment allegations, and female staff members
said they remained fearful of reporting inappropriate behavior.
.
Mr. OReillys dismissal was hailed by womens rights activists and some
inside the company as a sign that the network, and perhaps corporate
culture at large, was finally taking the issue of sexual harassment
seriously.
