What interview???
and especially since he called for the Rumsfeld resignation (and that was before the prison story). that was the end of the line for me.
---That was during the Iraq war last year. O'Reilly had live footage and Colonel Hunt on every night.
I would like to see his ratings THIS year and compare them.---
You may be correct. There was no 'year' in the date of the article but the page looks old. Here is a later rating:

Righteous rant, D1!
No! I missed it! Waht did general Vallaly say? I miss seeing him, but of course understand why he has not been on, due to the death of his son. (And let's contrast that with Nick Berg's father, who is apparently available to all media.)
Still No. 1.
be patient.
H&C is going to eclipse him within 4-6 weeks, he used to pull 2.2+ consistently.
I did not know his son had died and poor Neil was having a hard time expressing his sorrow. Did he die in a training accident? I saw a picture of him in uniform and the General said he wanted to go with Special Forces and he died doing what he wanted to do.
Thanks. I am not certain if he was killed in action or died in a training accident. I missed the announcement when it was made and so do not know. Maybe someone else will fill in the blanks.
try Northern Ireland. I see it the same way,because this time we are not going to back down!
I am beginning to think that we won't see any interview, but rather that Neil was talking about this meeting with financial people that he attended. I will be very disappointed if this is so.
How long ago did this happen? I thought he was just off writing his book.
training accident - his son was traning for special forces. Fort Bragg I think is where it happened. He talked about it in detail a couple of weeks back on the John Batchelor radio show. very sad.
A couple of months ago.
Likewise, MM...
A look in the rear-view mirror? H&C's passed him in 2002 and 2003.

Well, it's 4:50 and no sign of an interview with the president.
FNC has been over hyping their shows. I am lowering my expectations of them in the future, which should put them right around a 3 on a scale of one to ten.
