[The Hill] Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) says Fox News host Bill O’Reilly should face jail time if he sexually harassed women."They have treated women very badly," she told host Chris Hayes on MSNBC’s "All In" late Wednesday while discussing O’Reilly and Fox News. "This really is a sexual harassment enterprise. They need to go to jail. Bill O’Reilly needs to go to jail."
"It shouldn’t be in America that you can sexually harass women and buy your way out of it because you’re rich."
Reports emerged last Saturday that five women accusing O’Reilly of harassment received a total of $13 million for agreeing not to pursue litigation or discuss their accusations.
The women, who were reportedly paid by either Fox News or O’Reilly himself, alleged complaints including verbal abuse, unwanted advances, lewd comments and indecent phone calls.
