In a lot of ways, I think this is a waste of time. Rather got the axe during Memogate because CBS could not afford in 2004 to be accused of partisan attacks on Dubya. Williams has been suspended for six months because NBC is afraid of being seen as employing a liar.

Faux, by contrast, doesn’t give a fuck if it has a liar and partisan hack as one of its main draws. If anything, Ailes would actually hurt the network by taking any action against O’Reilly. So Bill might as well just stand up tomorrow night and declare “I’M BULLETPROOF!”
