O'Reilly dropped by talent agency amid sexual harassment allegations: report

Source: The Hill

Bill O’Reilly was dropped by his talent agency after a new report revealed that he paid $32 million to settle a sexual harassment claim at Fox News, The Hollywood Reporter reported Tuesday.

United Talent Agency (UTA) reportedly informed O’Reilly on Monday that the agency will no longer represent him once his contract with them expires at the end of the year.

The decision came just days after The New York Times revealed that O’Reilly had settled a sexual harassment complaint at Fox News for $32 million, shortly before the network renewed their contract with him.

O’Reilly spokesman Mark Fabiani told THR that O’Reilly already had “lined up new representation” but declined to say which agency had signed him.

And can "armpit-fart" the first three bars of Jimmy Crack Corn like no one you've ever seen.

But apparently that's not enough in today's entertainment world.

"society" and the entertainment business took out Weinstein so they couldn't possibly have left out all the rest of them walking the streets like O'Liely.... and there's a big list that should include the current occupant of the WH.
