In an interview with Salon, Rashad Robinson of Color Of Change admitted his organization's role in ousting Bill O'Reilly. If you're unfamiliar with Color Of Change, it's a black activist group co-founded by CNN pundit and former Obama aide, Van Jones. The group partnered with none other than David Brock's Media Matters to disseminate the contact information of O'Reilly Factor sponsors in an effort to have them drop their sponsorship. By creating a groundswell of fake outrage, Color Of Change was able to coerce Bill O'Reilly's sponsors into dropping support for his show and forcing Fox News to terminate his contract. These are the tactics being effectively used against conservatives by similar leftist groups across North America. Just over the past few months, we've seen sponsors terminate contracts en masse with Breitbart and Youtube due to outrage that was funded, manufactured and stoked by groups like Color Of Change.
Van Jones' employer, CNN, had an obvious heyday covering Bill O'Reilly's ouster. CNN pundits could barely contain their shadenfreude. Leftists on Twitter couldn't contain theirs either, as the Twitter-verse exploded with orgasmic celebrations and tweets about what a victory it was. To them, another conservative voice was silenced.
Since Donald Trump won, the left has been sharpening their swords and grooming their troops for battle in the trenches. They won't stop until we're all defeated. O'Reilly wasn't everyone's favourite, but he was an influential voice on the right. His show raked in an average of five million viewers a night, making him one of the most powerful talking heads on cable news. Now that he's gone, his time slot will likely succumb to MSNBC's All In With Chris Hayes, unless Fox finds a strong replacement.

Are you referring to BO or Trump?
Great point. And now that they have o'reilly's scalp you can be sure they will try and get another and another and another. The lib goal is bald faced totalitarianism---remove all dissent by any means necessary.
He did it to himself, don'tcha know. Just say it now, because conservatives believe anything that sounds torrid.
Yes, I sat there watching Bill begging to play bassetball with Bam Bam Obama. It turned my stomach watching that ask kissing. I turned it off and never went back. I still have Lou Dobbs and Maria Bartiromo who are very excellent by the way.
I do hope that a massive conservative network blooms. It would be unstoppable by the left.
The Donald has shown the cure - fight back and tell ‘them’ that they wont win. If 6 - 10 bots can generate fake outrage and deter advertisers, it should be easy to take down CNN, NBC and the others. And as for individuals, how about Chrisy Tingle and Rachel etc. Or escalate and aim for CNN itself, MSNBC itself and so on. The best defence is ...........
BOR, the spinning pinhead looking out for himself, finally had to eat his self-made Loofah-falafel sandwich.
Tucker s starting on the wrong foot. His first show as O’Reilly’s replacement will feature an interview with Bruce Jenner. I won’t be watching.
I do want to hear his side of the story re alleged harassment, and I would like to hear much more about the soros-jones-cnn connection (perhaps a conspiracy with other players?)
.
Leftists have won nothing their childish stupidity shines brighter by the day.
Many years ago, when BOR was only on the radio, he had a segment of his show touting his idea to help with unwed mothers. He proposed that the government should PAY couples to marry and to stay married. I was flabbergasted that he would propose such a ridiculous plan. I tried calling in to give my opinion, but I kept getting put on hold and disconnected. Ever since hearing his idea, I have thought him to be a complete moron. I would be happy to never see or hear from him again.
Don’t forget Charles Payne!
His fawning, love affair interviews right before the election gave those soft, cucked boomers the green light to vote for him and impose their final destruction on the country.
O'Reilly deserves everything he gets from the left and should serves as an example as to what happens when you try to make nice with them.
Killing Bill O’Reilly was a huge win for the anti-America left. I’d like to know how much Soros paid to get O’Reilly’s scalp.
I would like to know if any of these women have ever said anything to a man that could be misconstrued. Compliments on clothing, etc.
I think the Murdoch’s must be delighted by all of this so they can get rid of those they disagree with politically.
first, last and always...he will remain the one and only...0’pinhead.
FUBO!

Oh yes, Charles Payne is most excellent and he is extraordinarily classy in those pinstripe suits. Really smart cookie he is.
Sometimes I wanna throw cookies at that Snarky Stu Varney though and that woman, Lizzie on his show, bleah, she looks like she is sitting on a thistle.
Bill used a lot of different guests. The format was stale. What happened is many of the guests left he used for years.
I will be watching Bruce Jenner out of nothing more than morbid curiosity. Much as one would drive by an accident scene, not wanting to look but not able to help oneself.
People coddling mental illness of that magnitude is not something one has been used to seeing in times past. So let it rip.
Tucker has a tall order to shock and awe going in. Wish him all the luck. He will need it with the full on assault from Hill, Bill, Bam Bam and the other purple shirts waging the street fight.
Personally I hope every night he will spotlight the various parade of human debris that respirate on US soil. One must identify the virus, parasite, etc., to eradicate it. Otherwise the parasite ends up killing the host and moving to the next host.
The problem with this type of thinking is that the Left won’t stop at just BOR. He’s just another scalp. MSNBC was already getting on Tucker’s case this morning for an old Tweet calling Sarah Palin ‘milftastic’. He’s next.
Our side needs to stand up and fight (yes, even for BOR) rather than go to the ‘we didn’t like/want him anyway’ card.
