Has O'Reilly ever claimed to be a conservative?

This morning my local morning radio guys were cracking on Bill O'Reilly for being a bit paranoid regarding Olbermann. They played a clip where a guy called in to his radio show and merely mentioned Olbermann's show, and O'Reilly cut him off and set Fox Security on him. I don't watch The Factor, so I totally missed this. Anyone else catch it?
How does one "set Sucurity" on someone who's a caller?
I heard that clip, and the fellow says Olberman's name on the air, then got cut off.
There's always a 7 second (or so) delay on radio programs. I just heard a guy get cut on sports talk the other day for making some rude joke -- which we didn't get to hear the punchline of, dang it! Cuz it always cuts off the part that is offensive.
What the fellow said that upset O'Reilly can not be that mention of Olberman's name -- there must have been something else after that, that was not released on the air.
I will admit that he has done some great things, but he just seems to have a knack for doing dumb stuff that the left can bash us over the head with.
So why don't you shut up and leave?

Same guy...he subsequently went to ESPN, got fired from that place, and then reinvented himself as a political affairs pundit on MSNBC. BTW, he is a real moonbat type who gets his stories fro the DUmp.
no, the part that you heard, he just mentions Olbermann's name. The part that got cut off was when he thanked him for turning him onto Olbermann's show.
He had Security call the guy back at his home and tell the guy to stop harassing Bill
I quit watching O'Reilly after the reports that he was running around talking about his wife's vibrator to his female co-workers. He is a sicko.
He got the Fox Security to call the guy and make enquiries for making crank/obscene calls. I heard the exchange on the Radio Factor and thought O'Reilly was being more childish and paranoid than usual.
I saw him tear apart a Dem Party Leader who was trying to BS me that Hillary wants to protect our borders.
Bill openly scoffed. Anyone else would have just let the Spokesperson go on and on unchallenged in the nam of journalism.
I like Bill. It takes balls to call out these scumbag Lawmakers, Lawyers, Interest Groups etc that everyone is so afraid to clash with on TV.
I defend O'Reilly because he's better than nothing; I don't expect him to be a 100% conservative, whatever that is. Unlike just about any lib newsman you can think of, O'Reilly pokes fun at himself. When did you ever see Dan Rather do that? And O'Reilly will argue against lib talking points - how often do Katie Couric and Matt Lauer and Bob Schieffer do that? Rarely, if ever.
You guys can get a joke can't you?
Looks like we agree - see my #53.
Olberman may be pretty cooked but even he knows what a whack job Bev Harris is.
I guess I'll have to tune into O'Reilly and listen to him refer to himself in the third person as "The Factor," like he's some kind of superhero.
Or I can watch Spongebob Squarepants.
You don't listen to very much, do you.
I should have said he wants SUVs banned!
He wants more government control and regulations.
I listen if he has something on that's interesting, he's entertaining ~ at times. ;)
I'm just an observer giving an account.
