The TV presenter who called Putin was fired from Fox News for harassment

The American TV presenter and political commentator Bill O'ralili was fired from the Fox News television channel. In Russia, O'Reili became known after during an interview with Donald Trump called Russian President Vladimir Putin a “killer” and then refused to apologize for it. O'ralili was fired in the wake of the scandal caused by his harassment to the woman-woman, which he practiced over the years.

The TV presenter’s departure was reported by 21st Century Fox, which owns the Fox News TV channel. Apart from the company's certificates, the press release consists of one line: "After a thorough assessment of the charges, the company and Bill O'Reili agreed that it would not return to Fox News."

Earlier it became known that Fox paid $ 13 million for the settlement of claims that several women filed against O'ralil, accusing him of sexual harassment. The sponsors of the program that he led began to recall the contracts for advertising, recalls RIA Novosti .

Women who accused O'Reili worked with him or appeared in his program. Being an influential person on the television channel, O'Reili offered them advice or professional assistance, and then demanded sexual relations, threatening in case of refusal, which would slow down the development of a career for a protege.

As Reuters recalls, O'rali worked on Fox for more than 20 years and was one of the most popular leading and publicists. Since April 11, it is on vacation.
