    $13 million settlement to them and believed to be somewhere in the region of $25 million to get him, by far their most successful personality, off their payroll asap rather than even trying to weather the advertiser dropoff.
    Considering Glenn Beck makes something like 4 times what Bill O'Reilly did at Fox, odds are O'Reilly is gonna be making so much wherever he lands next (as a tradeoff for no longer being part of whatever social circles he was in, I guess, I assume he was treated as something of a mainstream celebrity) that Fox wouldn't be able to afford him even if they wanted.

    There's such a huge amount of money going out the door here and the potential ramifications to Fox of O'Reilly moving elsewhere that you'd have to imagine Fox has good cause to suspect these stories aren't going to die down.

    Which news network could he possibly end up at? Fox seems to be the only one with conservative programming. He might just call it a day.
