O’Reilly Accuser Buys U.W.S. Condo for $809,500 - (bwaahahaha!)
O’Reilly Accuser Buys U.W.S. Condo for $809,500; Ted Greenberg Dukes It Out in $4 M. Bid

by Michael Calderone

Andrea Mackris, the former associate producer for Fox News Channel who made headlines by suing talking head Bill O’Reilly for sexual harassment, recently purchased an Upper West Side condo for $809,500, according to deed-transfer records.

Ms. Mackris, an alumna of Columbia University’s journalism school, had worked as a producer on The O’Reilly Factor before leaving for CNN in January 2004. However, in July of that year, she returned to Fox, reportedly at a $93,000-a-year salary.

Hours before Ms. Mackris filed her $60 million suit, Mr. O’Reilly sued for extortion. In the week that followed, the lurid details of the case—complete with explicit phone-sex allegations—served as endless fodder for late-night monologues (and fake news shows). On Oct. 28, Mr. O’Reilly agreed to settle the suit for an unspecified amount.

12.  "Smart Operators"
He writes about "smart operators" in his book- what could he mean?

...barf alert for the occasional instant-message inserts in which O'Reilly uses common IM terms to explore how two typical teenagers, one a "pinhead" and the other a "smart operator," would react to various situations. Bill O'Reilly talking kids' language: SMHID (scratch my head in disbelief).

3. Would have been nice to have put together a coalition to buy
Edited on Thu Apr-21-05 10:02 PM by Dr_eldritch
those tapes.

It would have been wonderful to have O'Reilly's lurid and lascivious voice all over the internet.
(obviouly not for aesthetics)

24. Thats where Dems and Repukes differ....
Repukes would have gotten those tapes no matter the cost if was a Democrat TV and radio blowhard. They would have used them over and over and destroyed that persons career.

So what did Dems do about O'Reilly--NOTHING,now after the cash has been paid he's back to the same old shit of claiming he's Independent,Fair and Balanced and bashing Democrats daily. Dems let this slip through their hands--as USUAL.

Go enlist tomorrow morning like a good American patriot! There's NO excuse not to, unless you hate America.

19. You don't seriously imagine she gave up ALL copies of the tapes, do you?
I'm betting that there is a copy safely someplace, just in case.

23. I guess the phone sex was better for her than for Bill.
Probably only a small portion of the settlement too.

27. $809,500 for a condo in NYC...
That's reasonable. More power to her if blowhard O'Lielley paid for it. What's shameful is that the creep escaped having his career ruined by paying her off and shutting her up. Amazing how the media quietly backed off this one. If a Dem had been involved it wouldn't have mattered how much money was paid. The story would have had long, long legs.

28. Remember Henry Cisneros
the HUD director under Clinton that was accused of giving his mistress money and (I think) not reporting it or giving more than he reported....well in one of the last budget bills they did recently, they finally cut off funding for this. I can't remember how many millions of bucks (and what, 15 years of time) they pissed away, but all he was charged with was a misdemeanor.
