Mercedes-Benz and Hyundai decided to pull their advertisements from "The O'Reilly Factor."

The decision follows news that the show's host, Bill O'Reilly, and Fox News have settled five times with women who alleged sexual harassment or verbal abuse.

"The allegations are disturbing and, given the importance of women in every aspect of our business, we don't feel this is a good environment in which to advertise our products right now," Mercedes-Benz spokeswoman Donna Boland said.

Fox News provided Springfield Business Journal with a statement.

“We value our partners and are working with them to address their current concerns about 'The O’Reilly Factor.' At this time, the ad buys of those clients have been re-expressed into other (Fox News) programs," officials say.
