Everyone makes too much fuss over stuff like this.
O’Reilly is very popular and has made millions of dollars doing what he does. He has a formula that evidently works, and he is absolutely the first to say he’s not an ideologue. In fact, he bashes ideologes from both left and right every day.
He states opinions that evidently resonate with a lot more people than most others, which accounts for his top ratings. He’s certainly not about to change because people on anonymous conservative discussion groups don’t like him.
He’s not the story, he’s a highly-paid performer. Why bother even posting about him, or commenting, unless you just like to vent?

Because he is a traitor..
Similar reason people watch Chris Matthews - he's psychotic.
He consistently claims to be conservative (his own words) and proves instead that he is not. Part of conservatism is honesty.
