Fox You're Pinheads if you don't bring back Bill O'Reilly
Ditto
people thought fox would die without Megan Kelly, and they’re better off with Tucker Carlson.
BOR had been difficult to watch for years. self important, constantly talking over his guests, and he spent as much time talking about himself as the issues of the day.
I’m more concerned that Murdoch’s kids will take the whole network in a different direction.
You can still catch him on the radio.
Tucker is a better choice for the tv spot.
Totally agree. BOR did himself in. The Murdoch spawn is a bigger concern.
Has BOR been brought up on charges in the legal realm? If not then the Mud Oxes had no valid basis to fire him. Not that I’m a fan of BOR but what weak kneed nillies.
Now people here suddenly love O’Reilly?
“I’m more concerned that Murdoch’s kids will take the whole network in a different direction.”
They’ve been in charge for a while. They got rid of Greta, Megyn, George Will and the Pinhead. Can’t say I like any of these people.
Agreed on all points.
BOR deserves no love from anyone on FreeRepublic after his repeated campaign to smear FR, outright lie about FR, manufacture bs to smear FR, etc.
Sorry, he is just as big a slimeball as Dan Rather.
The Murdoch sons lust after CNN,s prestige and they might just attain it along with a CNN sized audience. Thew will lose money ultimately unless they can displace CNN at airports and bus terminals everywhere.
Don’t lower yourself to supporting O’Reilly. He is not a good guy.
BOR is, I think from the types of errors he has made, naturally a liberal who determined to make a lot of money as a talk political show host and has the wit to understand that you can’t make money doing that as a liberal so he adopted a Conservative stance. He occasionally says something off the wall that only a lefty would support and when called on it by his audience, sometimes would backpedal or turn it around and sometimes would double down until he realized he had to get off it and would just not talk about it any more.
Fox News NEEDS Roger Ailes.............They are slithering toward HATE Media.
Because they had no “valid basis” it cost them plenty to do it. He had just signed the new contract and those things normally go up with every re-inking.
I won’t miss O’Blowhard the Amnesty Pimp.
Frankly, I think he ,what’s that expression, ‘jumped the shark’, or sumtin like that?’’’
Like that Matthews numnut, gotten to think he’s infallible/all knowing. Belongs in the EGO Museum now...
Now people here suddenly hate due process?
He’s not going back to FNC. That chapter is closed. He is now doing his own podcasts from him premium pay website ($50 a year) if people want to listen to his “The No Spin News Show” or they can hear him on the radio I guess. He’s getting $25 million of the 4 year $100 million contract he just signed not long ago.
There was a rumor he was going to OANN. I had hoped that was true. Maybe he will do some guest spots on their show from time to time.
I like OANN but compared to the big networks they are really small potatoes right now. That could change with the right opportunities though and hiring BOR could help make that happen. Like him or not; BOR had a big following.
I have never cared for BOR and find it hard to listen to Hannity because he is just a lot less intelligent than I expect him to be. That said, i find it ironic that I am more apt to actually pay attention to Fox now in Carlson’s spot. He is sharp. I don’t understand how the new Murdochs can put up with him.They seem to be trying to become CNN.
