Let's just plat a little "what if".
What if your an attractive young lady with no scruples, and you know if you charge Bill with harassment, you'll get a couple of million? I've seen stories where folks have killed for $20. For a couple of million, all bets are off.
What if your in charge of a Liberal News outlet, and Bill has been #1 for 8 years? You know you'll never beat him with your programming, so what else can you do? Hire, off the books, some of the aforementioned ladies to go to work for Fox and make charges against old Bill.
Not saying he's innocent, but as TVC pointed out, there have been no charges, much less a trial and conviction. And imo, even though the above scenarios are only speculation, especially #2, they shouldn't be rejected out of hand.
