Fox investigating sexual harassment claim against Bill O'Reilly

Meanwhile, the count of advertisers who are suspending ads on The O'Reilly Factor has grown to 60.

"I think he's a person I know well - he is a good person", Trump said an interview with the New York Times from the Oval Office last Wednesday.

O'Reilly said that he was targeted with allegations and lawsuits because of his celebrity.

So far, Fox News has made it clear that they have no real interest in punishing O'Reilly for his criminal activity.

Fox News announced this weekend that it intends to pursue an independent investigation against O'Reilly regarding the charges of groping, harassment and sexualized bullying leveled against him by multiple women who have worked at Fox News. Still, in defense of Paul, Weiss, Fox previously brought them on to conduct the internal investigation of network honcho Roger Ailes and they unceremoniously kicked him to the curb, so there's no reason to question the firm's integrity.

"I'm more familiar with this case than I am with, say, healthcare, but I didn't really look into it too much, no", Baldwin as Trump said.

"21st Century Fox investigates all complaints and we have asked the law firm Paul Weiss [Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison] to continue assisting the company in these serious matters", the company said in a statement on Sunday.

And now the Times reports that 21st Century Fox has escalated O'Reilly's alleged antics to a Biglaw investigation, with Paul, Weiss coming on board to investigate at least one of the sexual harassment allegations against the host.

Walsh said O'Reilly barely acknowledged her when she returned to appear on "The O'Reilly Factor".

At a news conference last week, Bloom had detailed allegations against O'Reilly by Walsh, a psychologist and radio host. Here's a breakdown of scandals surrounding the cable news network.

The accusations against O'Reilly prompted major advertisers to abandon his nightly television program, The O'Reilly Factor.

But eventually, the fallout over the matter will have a cost.

Before he went to commercial, O'Reilly thanked his few remaining sponsors, including "dog cocaine" and "prescription-strength Eliquis: Cialis for Horses". Six of them were "per inquiry" ads, which means payment for them is usually based on how many people call a toll-free number to purchase the product or service being advertised.
