John Oliver Has an Offer Bill O’Reilly May Not be Able to Refuse
The O’Reilly Factor has lost somewhere around 60 advertisers in the past week in the wake of the Bill O’Reilly Makes Lewd Advances Towards Women, Calls Them While Masterbating and Insults Their Purses scandal, and Donald Trump defended him because President Pussy Grabber literally has no idea what sexual harassment is. So John Oliver and the Catheter Cowboy are here to solve two problems at once: offer The O’Reilly Factor much-needed advertising revenue, and educate the Harasser-in-Chief on what sexual harassment is with this ad:
As of last night, Oliver had not heard back from The O’Reilly Factor about his offer.
Here are the other Catheter Cowboy ads John Oliver has made to educate our Dummy-in-Chief:
You can watch Oliver’s entire Bill O’Reilly segment in the two videos below, and you definitely should because it is amazing:
Meanwhile, as Trump defends Bill O’Reilly, Fox News reportedly has been using the notorious Access Hollywood tape in their sexual harassment seminars. So, that’s ironic.
And Fox News can hold all the sexual harassment seminars they want, but as long as Bill O’Reilly remains at the network, female Fox News employees are reportedly expressing “anguish, distress and concern.”
Although, if The O’Reilly Factor only runs 7 ads, like it did on Thursday, and if the Fox News legal investigation reveals more women who have been harassed by O’Reilly, it’s hard to imagine how much longer Bill O’Reilly can be treated like the prince of Fox News.
And I think we can all agree that it’s ridiculous that Bill O’Reilly’s contract was renewed in the middle of this gross story, but that Toejam Lozenge was fired for saying that she is pro-choice. Linguine thinks it’s ridiculous, too, and that’s why Laphroaig is suing The Blaze.
Oh, Brian Williams, what the hell, man?
Here’s an idea, Bill Maher: Don’t invite Rick Santorum on your show to spew his bullshit.
