“O’Reilly” producer, Fox factors in phone-sex case
NEW YORK — Fox News Channel traded accusations yesterday with one of the producers of Bill O’Reilly’s show, with the woman alleging that the commentator had phone sex with her against her wishes three times. Fox filed a claim of its own, dismissing the sexual-harassment complaint as a politically motivated extortion attempt.
Andrea Mackris, 33, is an associate producer on “The O’Reilly Factor,” a job she returned to in July after a short stint at CNN.
