The only reason Hannity and Colmes doesn't overtake O'Reilly is because of Colmes. If they get rid of Colmes, I bet the ratings would soar. Now O"Reilly can peacefully go back to his middle of the road, I want to be accepted by Dan Rather self and smirk in our faces. He asked his audience not to believe allegations, but why did he settle if there was nothing to it? Were those tapes so BADDDDDDDDDDDDDDD? Don't want to hear anyone climaxing over the phone. Yuck.
A lot of people who listen to O'Reilly's TV show and haven't read the court papers will believe him. On the other hand, those who listen to his radio show have seen the real O'Reilly, the sex guy.
