“Bill O’Reilly, who has made a name for himself in part for maintaining strong stances on a number of topics, has reportedly been accused of something he has historically opposed vehemently: domestic violence. The Fox News pundit was identified in testimony in a contentious child custody case with his ex-wife as having assaulted her while the two were engaged in an argument at their New York home, according to a new report from Gawker.
“The physical altercation, which is cited by an unnamed source who claimed to be close to the case, purportedly took place before 2010. During the incident, O’Reilly was said to have dragged his ex-wife, Maureen McPhilmy, down a flight of stairs by her neck, the report claimed. The couple’s daughter, who reportedly witnessed the assault unbeknownst to her parents, recalled the incident this year while speaking with an investigator, according to the report. If true, the claim of spousal abuse contrasts starkly with O’Reilly’s outspoken views on the issue.
When asked to comment on the allegations against him, O’Reilly stated that “the whole matter was just blown out of proportion.” Speaking exclusively to Newslo, he said there is no more need to discuss the “unjustly accusations being made against me, when there are clearly many cases of domestic violence throughout America that are occurring on a daily basis.”
However, when asked how he feels about his daughter witnessing the alleged incident, O’Reilly became aggravated: “Let me tell you one thing: Don’t you dare bring my daughter into this! I tried to talk to my ex-wife in a reasonable and peaceful manner that faithful night, but she just wouldn’t have it! She started talking about taking my daughter away from me and I just lost it. So, if you want to make a big deal out of one simple slap for insolence, you go ahead and do that! I’ve already paid my dues.”

Try spellcheck. It might help you have a shred of credibility.
So if there are some misspelled words the story is not true?
Who can believe this shit; Bill I’ll give u a slap you will never forget
Then the men shouldn’t make a big deal out of a single bullet wound when they do.
Then don’t make a big deal when your slap lands you in jail for assault and battery.
this story is on other sites as well. I believe it is true and O’Reilly did commit domestic violence. I believe the man should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and his daughter should be able to testify as to what she saw. The man has not paid his dues and is now promoting domestic violence towards women. I hope his ex-wife shoots him in self-defense.
He deserves a single kick in the balls…
Because women are property according to this guy’s rules. Or at least second-class citizens.
Uh, Bill – “One simple slap” is legally called “Battery” and is prosecutable. What about one simple punch? What about one simple throw down to the floor? What about one simple bullet toi the head? Just where do we draw a line, Bill?
This is great news. Think of all the people who’d love to slap Bill.
Wonder if he knows about The Burning Bed?
I couldn’t believe even HE was that stupid. But I guess I was wrong.
Why is this guy speaking publicly? Why is he not in prison?
There is a “show facts” button that highlights the factual part. The unhighlighted is satire
That Bill O’Reilly found someone to have sex with him is scary.
You yanks amuse me. You are worse than the Brits, but profess to be better. I love Oh, Really.We need people who will challenge the norm, in all directions, it don’t mean to say he is right all the time, but I do enjoy listening to him, and Al Jazeera & etc to form a view.Sure he may have lost it, so have I. Let he without sin….etc.Men arn’t the only abusers in relationships.and I have had a few ‘slaps’ in my time, mostly deserved, but you don’t go running to the police cause you;ve had a slap, there is some ulteriour motive
One slap from a man his size is like getting hit by a baseball bat, being dragged down the stairs by your neck with the same ham handed jerk is no different then being in the clutches of a rabid pit bull. So which no big deal are you Bill, you sick maniac, and stop with the bullying everyone who questions your negative moves on people who challenges O’Reilly’s phony balony bullshit.
I have always not trusted this man- never had any reason -just my gut feeling..this is the very first time anyone has ever had the courage to report the truth as far as I know.. what has happened to the brave reporter who reported this????
The problem is his fans eat his shit up, I wonder how many walked out into the kitchen and slapped their wives right after he said this.
He should be telling that to all the attorney generals of the nation since it is they who will ” make a big deal out of a simple slap for insolence” and prosecute you for the crime that it is….assault and battery
I think we should all take turns slapping Bill in the face. We’ll just do it once per person since he thinks it is no big deal.
If insolence garners a slap what does bigotry, misogyny, racism and bald face lying get him?
let me near him and I will pummel him for his insolence
Insolence?? You can only be insolent to someone who has authority over you. Ugh. As if we needed yet another reason to be disgusted by Bill O’Reilly.
He shouldn’t make such a fuss when I deliver a quick kick to the bollocks, then should he? Cockwomble.
Another creep who thinks it’s okay to assault his wife.

I wonder how he’d like to get a single punch for stupidity?
