Heir apparent for Dan Blather
None of this surprises me, having heard about O'Reilly's hickeyfest on Michael Moore's voluminous butt.
Considering that I got two copies of O'Reilly's book a few years back, I won't have to worry about kindling for the fireplace this year.
He's auditioning for Dan Rather's job.(he only looks out for himself, Fox was just a stepping stone to the MSM).
let him go, please, let him go to CBS.
Shouldn't be a big surprise, seeing how he continually emphasizes his big concern for looking out "for the folks". It has a certain lingering liberal smell to it.
In some ways this doesn't totally mean he has a liberal tilt, it could mean he wants to replace Dan Rathers or any opening and is trying to suck up. Which is stupid because if you've read "Weapons of Mass Distortion" it predicts fox news to be on top in everything by 2006.
SURPRISING???
To whom??
He shouldn't be a disappointment if you've watched him. I think he's angling for "respectability" among the media elite. He wants to be considered one of the big boys and that means adopting the liberal mindset. i gave up on him some time ago.
I think he thinks saying this kind of crap makes him "sassy".. hes as much a wussy as Kerry....he kissed Michael Moore and Alec Baldwins BUTT when they were on his show....he almost drooled on Alec Baldwin he was so impressed......
Laura Ingraham is right about him .. and Ann Coulter nailed his behind not long ago....
he can kiss my behinie too
No doubt: this becomes apparent within a week of viewing his show.
I've said from the very begining, Bill is a populist, on alot of issues.
It just happens he personally doesn't like alot of liberals, not necessarily for ideological reasons, just personal ones.
People seem to confuse personal for political far to often. I've known liberals who hate other liberals because they are obnoxious, nasty, with wild paranoia streaks. Think Gephardt and Dean supporters. They were practically attacking each other in Iowa.
He never fooled me for a moment. When he refused the SBV, I was furious. I haven't watched him since. Another liberal on Fox. It won't be long before Fox joins the ranks of CNN. I wonder what the ratio of conservatives to liberals is on Fox?
O'Reilly comes out of the (liberal) closet - ping.
I didn't watch him on a regular basis but tuned in whenever I could. There were times he had me convinced that he was a conservative and then there were times I wondered. Now I know. I agree with the others. Let CBS have him replace Blather. No loss to Fox.
Mail them back to him

"That would put Chernin in the ranks of some other Kerry-supporting media executives, including Barry Diller, Kirk Kerkorian (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc.) and Harvey and Robert Weinstein, who backed the release of Michael Moore's controversial anti-Bush documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11.

"News Corp. owns Fox News Channel." . . and Bill O'Reilly, and Hannity and Colmes. Is it any wonder direct posting from FoxNews is on the "No-No" list?

That 'splains this . .
O'Reilly is just spinning. That guy is so full of himself. Basically he wants ratings, which means being seemingly conservative, while having respectability in certain zip codes as being objective, because folks of a lower middle class Irish heritage tend to crave respectability among their peers (well the last bit is a bit of a mouthful, but I will say it anyway). I don't think the guy has any real beliefs which fit into this objective function.
