One of Bill O'Reilly's defenders says that the sex harassment charges against him are a CNN/Democratic Party plot: "I see another network and political party behind this." Another called his accuser, producer Andrea Mackris, a "Time Warner plant," because she left CNN to come back to work for O'Reilly at Fox. The trouble is that O'Reilly and his lawyer have not specifically denied the comments attributed to him in the suit. The evidence suggests that he has been caught on tape making sick and perverted comments to a female subordinate. O'Reilly, a married father of two, himself filed suit, charging extortion. Mr. "No Spin Zone" is taking a lesson from the Clinton playbook-go after the accuser, hire a good lawyer, and go on the offensive. Clinton managed to survive, but will O'Reilly?
