O'Reilly called co-host Wiehl a "good-looking girl"; suggested she learn to dance

http://mediamatters.org/items/200511140006

On the November 10 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show, Fox News' The Radio Factor with Bill O'Reilly, during a segment on a telecommunications executive who spent $250,000 in one night at a New York strip club, host Bill O'Reilly asked co-host Lis Wiehl if "it might be worth learning how" to dance for a $10,000 tip, adding, "You're a good-looking girl. I mean, if you haven't seen Lis on TV, she's a good-looking blonde."

Wiehl, a Harvard-trained law professor and Fox News legal analyst, has faced similar comments from O'Reilly in the recent past. On the November 3 broadcast of The Radio Factor, O'Reilly called for a "full-body search" of Wiehl, adding that "she asked for it"; on the October 26 broadcast of the radio show, O'Reilly asked Wiehl to protest outside of CBS studios in a bikini; on the June 24, 2004, broadcast, O'Reilly referred to Wiehl as "eye-candy."

O'Reilly made all but the eye-candy comment after he settled an October 2004 sexual harassment lawsuit.

From the November 10 broadcast of Fox News' The Radio Factor with Bill O'Reilly:

O'REILLY: All right, so he's giving, according to this, $10,000 tips to the dancers. Can you dance?

WIEHL: No.

O'REILLY: You can't dance.

WIEHL: Cannot dance.

O'REILLY: Don't you think it might be worth learning how?

WIEHL: No. For $10,000?

O'REILLY: Yeah. You're a good-looking girl. I'm telling you that.

WIEHL: (Laughing)

O'REILLY: I mean if you haven't seen Lis on TV, she's a good-looking blonde.

WIEHL: Oh thank you.

O'REILLY: And she's on the radio. Ten thousand dollars for doing a little dance --

WIEHL: No thanks.

O'REILLY: No?

WIEHL: No.

O'REILLY: Wouldn't do it?

WIEHL: Nope.

O'REILLY: I would if I were a girl.

WIEHL: (Inaudible)

O'REILLY: I would.

WIEHL: Why don't you put on a little tutu --

O'REILLY: I would.

WIEHL: (Inaudible)

O'REILLY: For $10,000, I --

WIEHL: (Inaudible)

O'REILLY: If I were a girl, I'd be up on that doing the monkey on the table or whatever you want me to do. I wouldn't let them touch me or anything --

WIEHL: No.

O'REILLY: Ten grand, you wouldn't -- you're not doing it?

WIEHL: I just want to see you in the little tutu --

O'REILLY: No, you're never going to see that. I mean nobody wants to see me. But they would want to see you.

WIEHL: (Laughing) It's not going to happen.

O'REILLY: But you're not going to do it.

1. Thanks.
Now I need to go pour Clorox into my ears to get the picture of Treasonous O'Terrorist Scum dancing in a pink tutu and apparently "doing a monkey" on a table out of my head.

5. I was reading that and thinking I'd so lose my job that day.
I'd want to say "hey fuck you, you lecherous piece of shit" and walk off the set.

16. It's amazing how people in power take advantage...
I wish it was only righties, but it comes with the territory. Problem with the righties is that they claim to be holier than thou :eyes:

Sick fuck.

6. I think "pathetic" is more like it in his case.
He probably went into broadcasting because he thought it would help him get laid more often. :eyes:

7. "Hey, you're a good-lookin' dame."
"I mean, I wouldn't throw you out of bed. And for a broad, you're pretty brainy. So how's about you and I get under my desk and you can show me your moves?"

:eyes:

Howard Stern is being chased to Sirius for that kind of crap.

9. Let's take up a collection:
O'REILLY: If I were a girl, I'd be up on that doing the monkey on the table or whatever you want me to do. I wouldn't let them touch me or anything --

WIEHL: No.

O'REILLY: Ten grand, you wouldn't -- you're not doing it?

WIEHL: I just want to see you in the little tutu --

O'REILLY: No, you're never going to see that.

I mean nobody wants to see me.


I'D pay $50.00 to see him humiliate himself doing the monkey in nothing but a tutu. THEN he'd see how GREAT it feels. Bring it on Falafel Man. I'd love to taunt you, maybe throw food at you.

11. Bill O'Reilly is a first class punk, with a capital "P" that stands
for jerk. He hasn't learned his lesson very well and has yet to come face to fact with his real match. Bill is setting himself up!

12. Majority Report played the whole thing last week.
I think it was Monday. They're in LA, so Jeanine can be on the show with Sam more often. They also played...

"Say Baby. Put down that pipe and get my pipe UP!"

14. Hard to have sympathy for someone who chooses to work with him
If she's a Harvard trained law professor, she presumably is there by choice. And so I'm not going to waste any sympathy on her for having to put up with his crap because she doesn't.

Now if it was someone who really needs the job and didn't have a lot of choice, I'd have a lot of sympathy.

I also hate it when men refer to a grown woman (and a professional in this case) as a "girl". What would his reaction be to being called a "boy", I wonder.

15. I might pay a couple of bucks
to see O'Reilly in a tutu.

So, if he were a girl he would have no problem getting up on a table doing "...whatever you want me to do." All rightie then!

19. Yet, he persists in the conversation
even after she said "No" to his dumbass suggestion.

No means no Bill. Haven't you learned by now?
