He plays the “devil’s advocate” way too much. He can’t ever report on the vitriol inflicted by the left without stating that BOTH sides do it.
Maybe so, but rhetoric put forth by anyone on the right is about 100 times less toxic that what the libs put forth.
Beck has defended him saying that there is a certain amount of play between the two of them when he is on O’Reilly’s show. He hinted that O’Reilly plays devil’s adovcate and that we, the watchers, really don’t know all that O’Reilly is thinking.
My answer to that is simply that O’Reilly must not be thinking anything that would be earthshattering or groundbreaking, something that would really stimulate his audience. We would have heard it by now.
