This lawsuit was filed all the way back in 2004 if you can believe it!
In her allegations against Bill O’Reilly, Mackris claimed two types of legally cognizable sexual harassment claims that are not based upon physical contact: quid pro quo and hostile work environment. She produced quotations from phone conversations between herself and O’Reilly in which he suggested various sexual fantasies he had for her. A widely publicized portion of one conversation included a scenario where O’Reilly would massage her with a loofah in the shower. At one point during the conversation, O’Reilly referred to the loofah as “the falafel thing.” “Falafel” eventually became a short-hand reference to the affair.

If he were still in favor, some PAC would have bought tens of thousands of them and used them in the “FREE Autobiography with $500 donation” spam emails like the Trump campaign did with several books.
