Justice for Bill O’Reilly
By Ned Barnett
As Bill O’Reilly has just learned, America has become a nation that punishes men who are charged by women with inappropriate behavior. Convictions based on proof are not necessary – the charges are sufficient. Members of the Duke Lacrosse team lost a great deal – their lives were tarnished forever – before it finally became clear that their accuser was making up her charges out of whole cloth. Since that time, college leaders – as well as corporate board room executives – have not learned the lesson of Duke – that men are entitled to their day in court. An allegation should be different than a conviction.
However, Bill O’Reilly doesn’t need me to defend him, so I won’t. O’Reilly himself charges that he was done in by “unfounded claims.” Perhaps that’s true, but his saying so doesn’t mean he’s telling the truth. I don’t know if O’Reilly is guilty of being a sexual harasser or just an arrogant Long Island jerk who became the easy target of some people who looked to cash in by blackmailing Fox News. Neither do you.
