Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly Loses Custody of Kids Amid Accusations of Domestic Abuse

HeadlineMar 02, 2016

Fox News host Bill O’Reilly has lost residential custody of his two teenage children, following a lengthy custody battle during which his 17-year-old daughter told a forensic examiner that she watched O’Reilly dragging her mother down a staircase by her neck. Although the New York appeals court ruled O’Reilly’s two children should live solely with their mother, Maureen McPhilmy, O’Reilly maintains shared legal custody over them.
