Bill O'Reilly is officially out at Fox News, replaced by Tucker Carlson

I never paid much attention to anything he had to say.

Fox News has officially cut ties with its biggest prime-time star, Bill O’Reilly, following sexual harassment claims lodged against him.

“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 said in a statement.

O’Reilly — the network’s signature talent who used his cable news fame to become a best-selling author, live tour attraction and TV producer — has been off the air since April 12. He was scheduled to return from a vacation Monday, but instead he will be replaced by Tucker Carlson, who hosts the 9 p.m. Eastern hour that follows O’Reilly’s show.

Carlson, who joined the network’s weekday lineup last year and moved to fill Megyn Kelly’s time period in January, will be a part of a major shakeup of the Fox News program lineup triggered by O’Reilly’s departure.

I never considered O'Reilly to be much of a conservative but he did tweak libtard noses regularly. And that was enough to make them want him destroyed. If Idiot Joe Biden, Slick Willie the rapist or Anthony the Sexter Wiener act out there sexual predation instincts the left doesn't give a damn. But they have NO qualms about LYING incessantly about an opponent. There doesn't need to be a bit of truth to their allegations. The mere uttering of salacious accusations by the left about a conservative is enough to get the self righteous assholes on the right lathered up and out for blood. Then these idiots on the right do the dirty work the left could NEVER
Accomplish on their own. In far too many instances the right is it's own worst enemy.

Best selling author? The real author Martin Dugard ghosted all the books and O'Reilly's name appeared as the "author" to make them sell. I've read a few. They're not bad. O'Reilly's head got too big and he forgot a stiff dick has no conscience.
