to his ex-wife, Maureen McPhilmy. The ruling was unanimous, and both children said they did not want to live with their father:

The preference of McPhilmy and O’Reilly’s 17-year-old daughter is not particularly difficult to guess: As we noted last year, she told a court-appointed forensic examiner that she witnessed O’Reilly drag her mother down a staircase by the neck. (According to court transcripts obtained by Gawker, she also viewed O’Reilly as a temperamental, absentee parent who was uninterested in developing a relationship with her.) At a January 22 hearing, the children’s court-appointed lawyer, Barbara Kopman, told the appellate court that both the daughter and son strongly preferred living with their mother over their father.

And it's the fault of the NYT that his kids are upset. You betcha.

I like the way that he does not deny that he has made settlements of sexual harassment cases, but doesn't express any responsibility for finding himself in that situation. His kids' feelings are everyone else's fault--nothing to do with the behavior that brought about the brouhaha.

Years ago, he complained that the girls at Vassar would not date boys from Marist, where he was a student, and which is in the same town (Poughkeepsie NY). I was a girl at Vassar while he was at Marist, and I can tell you that boys from Marist were *very* popular at Vassar--Marist boys had access to the best marijuana around. My best friend actually married a boy from Marist. So no, Bill, if you couldn't get laid, it wasn't Marist--it was you.
