21st Century Fox is defending their contract renewal with former Fox TV Anchor Bill O'Reilly in spite of the fact that they had just settled a sexual harassment claim against him a month prior to renewing what was a very lucrative contract. Former legal analyst Liz Weihle had settled for a $32 million dollar lawsuit against O'Reilly which they under reported to the public. 2 months later O'Reilly was released from employment from Fox.
From the article, its not clear whether Fox or O'Reilly paid the settlement.
