Stick a fork in him, Bill O'Reilly is done.

I can see through your dress.

Bill O’Reilly has been forced out of his position as a prime-time host on Fox News, the company said on Wednesday, after the disclosure of multiple settlements involving sexual harassment allegations against him. His ouster brings an abrupt and embarrassing end to his two-decade reign as one of the most popular and influential commentators in television. 

“After a thorough and careful review of the allegations, the company and Bill O’Reilly have agreed that Bill O’Reilly will not be returning to the Fox News Channel,” 21st Century Fox, Fox News’s parent company, said in a statement. 

Part of the reason for this decision appears to stem from the fact that yet another woman came forward to accuse him of sexual harassment:  

Bill O'Reilly used to leer at an African-American Fox News clerical worker and called her "hot chocolate," according to attorney Lisa Bloom, who helped the woman report the harassment to the network's hotline. 

The woman worked for a different broadcaster in 2008 while this was going on, but The O'Reilly Factor host's office was near her desk, the attorney claims. 

 "He would never talk to her, not even hello, except to grunt at her like a wild boar," Bloom tells The Hollywood Reporter. "He would leer at her. He would always do this when no one else was around and she was scared."

That was enough to get Matt Drudge of the Drudge Report to tweet this:
And that my friends is all she wrote.

Even the Pope apparently could not save Billo's career.

It's like the end of an era isn't it?

An era full of pompous bloviating, and the kind of flagrant assholery that we can now get directly from the White House.

I can hardly wait for Stephen Colbert's response to the news that Papa Bear has now gone into permanent hibernation.
