And I saw Bill O described as a conservative journalist. Uh....no....

Journalism just ain’t what it used to be. We don’t have real journalists anymore. They all report personal opinion as fact. And they get their marching orders from the White House and/or the liberal Republican hierarchy.j

I don’t think FNC ever labeled Billo a conservative. I know others in various other media venues have done so, but FOX hasn’t. (Comcast’s blurb about Billo’s show reads: “Conservative commentator Bill O’Reilly mixes news, interviews and his take on current events.” I’m sure that’s written by Comcast and not FOX, especially since I’ve compared these descriptions with family and friends whose carriers are not Comcast and learned that their blurbs were different.) I agree with you that Billo isn’t conservative, although I do find things to agree with him about. Even so, he’s not being sold to us by FNC as anything but what he is — opinion. Shep, on the other hand, is supposed to be the program we can turn to to get the unvarnished news of the day. This implies that his presentation should be devoid of opinion.
