Bill O'Reilly
Bill O'Reilly will get a payout of up to US$25 million after being booted from Fox News over sexual harassment allegations.
Fox News on Wednesday said it had parted ways with the star cable news host, ending his more than 20-year career, following the allegations from a number of women.
O'Reilly's severance, totaling the equivalent of one year of his salary, would mark the latest multi-million dollar payment by Fox News related to men accused of sexual harassment.
O'Reilly's show, "The O'Reilly Factor," has been the most watched program on Fox News and was coming off the highest-rated first quarter in its history, averaging 4 million viewers.
O'Reilly will be replaced in his prime-time lineup by Fox host Tucker Carlson.
