Bill O’Reilly says he’s mad at god over the sexual harassment allegations that drove him off the air at Fox News earlier this year. “You know, am I mad at God? Yeah, I’m mad at him,” the devout Catholic said on his subscription web series, according to CNN. “I wish I had more protection. I wish this stuff didn’t happen. I can’t explain it to you. Yeah, I’m mad at him.”
He said again that he settled with several accusers ― including a $32 million settlement reported over the weekend by The New York Times ― to protect his family. O’Reilly said the newspaper’s latest report was an effort to “kill” him after his new book made the bestseller lists.
‘Scandal’ Star Tony Goldwyn Was Sexually Assaulted
via NYDN:
Goldwyn — who plays Fitz on the popular ABC drama — explained that he was in his last year of acting school when an unnamed man abused his industry power.
“It wasn’t as extended and awful as what Lupita (Nyong’o) went through, but it was the same thing,” he told “Access Hollywood” Friday. “It was the casting couch and I didn’t understand quite what was going on, what was happening — I thought it was my fault.”
The 57-year-old actor says it took time for him to fully recover from the incident and take the blame off himself.
“I thought I was misunderstanding the situation, and only afterwards did I realize what had happened, and I felt it took me a couple years to get over it.”
