When will the O'Reilly story hit the "traditional" media outlets?
So far, I haven't seen it on the wires...

Will Fox back their man?

Will Fox's rivals pile on and trash Fox's biggest moneymaker?

This is going to be very interesting!

Another in a long line of sanctimonious hypocrites who trashed the Clintons for a living....

1. Well I hope she TAPED some of those phone sex calls!
It would be a nice double bill with the Pam Anderson/Tommy Lee video, except a lot kinkier...after all Pam and Tommy do have their limits...

6. new york is a one party consent state
which means if she taped the calls, it was legal for her to do so. most states are one party consent... i think only 8 states are two party consent states. so to quote ari fliescher, "watch what you say..."

7. NBC nightly news has reported on it both nights. Keith Olberman
is making a serious big deal out of it. Deborah Norvile (MSNBC) had a panel discussion on it last night.

9. I saw O'Reilly news everywhere but FOX.
This was yesterday (Oct. 15). I saw very little today.

The Norville Panel on MSNBC was great -- they'll be on again in the coming couple of weeks. No one was making an attempt of defending O'Reilly. Olbermann's blog on O'Reilly was wonderful -- unfortunately, I missed his show but I believe it was about how O'Reilly has made a career out of fashioning himself as some grand moral pillar and Olbermann compares him to some obscure figure very O'Reilly-like from back in the day.

The bit of news I'm happy to see going around is the fact that O'Reilly has NOT denied any of Mackris' allegations. He has called them "horrible" and repeatedly whined he is part of some "extortion attempt" but has not stated whether the allegations are TRUE or FALSE. Funny, because if O'Reilly were to flat-out deny the allegations and Mackris provides tapes, he will be caught in yet another lie.

Unfortunately, after his Regis/Kelly appearance, it seems O'Reilly will not be speaking about the matter any further at the request of his lawyers. I believe I heard he even canceled an appearance he was scheduled for to promote his Children/Teens book. Someone needs to get him on camera and pose him the question: "Are these allegations TRUE or FALSE? One word answer!"

13. For that matter, when will the JOHN FUND case hit the media??
John Fund was finally deposed yesterday in the matter of Morgan Pillsbury v. John H. Fund.

Ms. Pillsbury had Fund arrested a couple years back for beating her up (see http://www.americanpolitics.com/20020223Fund.html).

Anyone heard any rumblings about the Fund depo? I hope it was taped. It could provide even more eye-opening than the Mackris tapes (I'm sure they must, um, er, exist, if you can take a, um, hint).
