Bill O'Reilly's alleged falafel fetish now has a name
Link to http://www.falaphilia.com.
fa·la·phil·i·a (n.)
1. Obsessive fascination with ground spiced chickpeas shaped into balls and fried.
2. Erotic attraction to or sexual contact with garbanzo beans, coriander, and cumin.
3. An abnormal fondness for being in the presence of middle eastern foods. Also called taboulehmania, hummulingus.
4. Sexual contact with or erotic desire for a falafel.

Background on the sexual harassment suit filed by a former subordinate of the famed Fox News anchor here: Link. BoingBoing reader Anna wonders if the whole debacle might be more accurately described as a case of Batata Harrahssment. I don't know, but get ready for lots of bad puns on good food.

2. Falafilia. Oh jeez, this thing has taken on a life of it's own. How funny.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving guy.

3. Falafel is only round one

When the tape(s) come out complaint item 66 and item 81 will eclipse the falafel. Especially if you can hear on the tape.

...And people won't have to ask "What's the buzz at Fox News?"
