Bill O’Reilly resurfaced to say that he’s “sad” that he lost his nightly show on Fox News but vowed that his loyal fans have not seen the end of him, nor has the public seen the end of the sexual harassment controversy that ultimately ended his program.
Speaking on a pre-recorded podcast uploaded to his website on Monday, O’Reilly said that the “truth” of the matter will eventually come out.
“I am sad that I’m not on television anymore,” he said. “I was very surprised how it all turned out. I can’t say a lot because there’s much stuff going on right now. But I can tell you that I’m very confident the truth will come out, and when it does, I don’t know if you’re going to be surprised, but I think you’re going to be shaken, as I am. There’s a lot of stuff involved here.”
He reiterated that he could not currently speak more about the controversy so as to not “influence the flow of information.”
O’Reilly’s show was terminated last week after a series of reports that he had settled sexual harassment lawsuits for millions of dollars with multiple women.
He has maintained that he never acted inappropriately.
