O'Reilly Sexual Harassment Suit

I read through the O'Reilly Sexual Harassment Suit, and two things jumped out at me.
  1. The ads for match.com at the top of the page. Sexual harassment. Dating. Sexual harassment. Dating. Discussion of vibrators over dinner. Woman in pink bathing suit and cowboy hat.
  2. The totally dry descriptions of outrageous events. "Plaintiff informed Defendant in no uncertain terms that she was neither experienced in nor interested in gaining experience in telephone sex. Defendant expressed disbelief." It's almost as if they want the reader to use some imagination.
I'm not a fan of Bill O'Reilly, but that has more to do with the way he spins things while claiming not to spin things. Now there's an all new and exciting reason to dislike him (namely, having phone sex with an unwilling participant).
