At Fox News, a wall of silence surrounds Bill OReilly...article from the Wash Post

"Fox News and its star host Bill O’Reilly appear to have developed a strategy in response to allegations of serial sexual harassment and the mass defections of advertisers from O’Reilly’s program: Say as little as possible."

"So far, O’Reilly’s audience has not only stuck with him — it has grown. “The O’Reilly Factor” attracted 3.8 million viewers Tuesday night, according to Nielsen, a 20 percent increase over the program’s ratings a week before and 19 percent more than on the same date last year."
