To your first point. This is the fricking PT. We had a 8000 page thread on #pizzagate for gods sake. I ain't trying to change any minds here.

quote:

not at all. I'm saying that you see this as "going down" makes me question your sincerity. so o'reilly is near retirement anyway, gets paid the balance of his contract THEN SOME, and now he's getting paid to not work. how is that going down? if I were really mortified on that level, I would feel as if he got away with it, but that's me.


Thats if you don't see OReilly as enjoying his uber power position forming public opinion. To some guys money is only part of the picture. Not to mention that he's going down in disgrace while at the same time appearing to be the exact stereotype of the "woman hating" right he's railed against.

Thats not my idea of winning, but to each their own.

Funny, because in my experience its extremely rare.
Not in the financial services industry, shite happens everyday. And HR unbelievably just rolls over and caves in on behalf of the accuser. And you are wrong, it has noting to do with conservatism, its all about the settlement. This is political enjoyment +10 for you - and that's all it is.

i'm just taking you at your word because it's fine if you wanted him gone for being a republican...but can we stop pretending that wasn't the number 1 motivating force that resulted in this?

why do we need to pretend to be outraged? why can't we just talk like humans.

"man I hope they fire bill o'reilly because I hate him. fricking dipshit republican"

that's fine and I don't care, but we have to say

"OMG, those poor women. he's a monster. it's not political, I just think he's evil and needs to be removed"

now I know you're bullshitting me and the resulting conversation is like we're acting out a fricking play

when you just said "ok, being real I was trolling with that" that was great. things are better when everyone stops bullshitting everyone.

sorry, i'm just so fricking depressed about this because this shite happens to me IRL and it makes me feel like i'm in some kind of dystopian future nightmare.

yeah I had a conversation with someone I know that was entirely bullshite. he was feeling me out lest I think he was hitler and vice versa offering concession points to start things instead of just talking like people.

and I thought regular chit chat was mundane. people are scared to say what they mean or are just worried about the wrong perception over the tiniest thing. it's insane.

No, im really not bullshitting you and nothing in my last post was disingenuous or trolling. I can understand both perspectives. I've experienced first hand how shitty it can be to interact with a female in the corporate world and feel like you're walking on eggshells it sucks arse.

Does it sweeten the pot that O'Reilly is a republican? Not as much as it does that he is and always has been an pompous, smirking douche. Not by a long shot. I troll Trumpkins on here because they're generally an unthinking horde. Just yesterday I jumped all up in a libs arse over some SJW bullshite on facebook. I started a thread yesterday praising Trump for the H1B visa EO. I try to call it like I see it with some Trumpkin trolling(ok a lot of Trumpkin trolling) thrown in.

At the same time, I've yet to see you acknowledge how bad it might suck to be a female in a male dominated business world where a man in power threatens your livelihood and that of your family if you don't frick them. Im sure women abuse that power these days and its deplorable no matter who does it. Have we jumped to far over the line? Absolutely, but I can't say I blame women for being a little anxious given the history of our entire civilization....what with them generally being second class citizens at best.

I honestly don't think it's as complicated as all that. People are capable of feeling one another out and gauging their audience (in general). Understanding the risks associated with attaching benefits to sexual favors and leaving co-workers creepy messages after-hours isn't some high-level shite.

We must have not watched the same show? O'Reilly owned Barney IMO


I saw the show you are referencing as well. This was Franks next on air visit with Bill and Bill came more prepared. He was able to avoid being sliced and diced the second go round. I am going to look again for the original meeting... you would be shocked.

Sounds like you're going a little Goldennugget there, pal. Why don't you and he and Count Chocula sit down and try to figure out how this dirty old guy skated through for so many years to begin with. I mean he's not especially conservative and he isn't likeable.

But seems like your little heart's sure broken. I can tell by the 200 posts over the last few days in which you declare how much you don't care for him.

And what else are they going to watch?

Look Count Cuckula, I know you're upset that your Daddy Billdo won't be able to serve as a reminder that the old, white, male rapist culture is still all powerful here in the good ole USA, but time and belief in the good lord jesus will surely heal your gaped anus.

Im praying for you.

And then I'll try and figure out why you and the Auburn dude don't really give a shite that Bills a molester, you give a shite because he has the power AND the platform to sway elections.

Uh. I never had any beef with O'Reilly. You can confirm or refute that on your own time. He's not a politard brand whackobird. Just a run of the mill douche. Not exactly a rarity in the media industry.

But he's a apparently a twisted old frick as well. That's what got him fired.

who said demand for conservative news is perfectly inelastic? I don't know how things shake out, but I hope the answer is "not well"

1. because fox news annoys me
2. because sometime in the future I want companies to stop being bullied by people who don't buy their shite. "I'm never eating at mcdonalds again until they pay a living wage to employees" and then you check their profile on twitter or whatever and they're a fricking vegetarian and you know they don't go to mcdonalds for salad.

O'Reilly

Lahren

Milo

Bannon

Kelly (came over to the good side)

These were some of the most influence voices on the right for the past few years--of course it's a victory.
