Or was it just low ratings?

[4rcane]

maybe thats why he was trashing other conservatives for being worried about the fairness doctrine, because he’s getting out of it so he’s not worried

[devane617]

mistake...he should give up tv and keep the radio gig

[Shady Ray]

I like how he talks down his audience while telling us about how important it is not to talk down to his audience. I think its an old Jedi mind trick or sumthin’.

[mnehring]

Give the show to Mary Katherine Ham, S.E. Cupp, Amanda Carpenter, or someone else worth listening to.

[OCCASparky]

Sounds like SPIN to me. Buh-bye, BOre.

One of the most listened to radio shows?
Jeez, until just recently I never even knew he had a radio show!!
(I don’t get out much.; )

[sickoflibs]

I cant even watch his TV show unless Ingrahm is hosting. I really loved Michelle Malkin on Fridays 2007 but BoR stabbed her in back because she was a conservative, so she quit. She was 100X better than him because he is just a prostitution and she have values and beliefs.

“I am just looking out for the folks...”
blah blah blah. Bye bye Bill.

Or was it just low ratings?

Rush smashes another "competitor" in the same time slot?

[facedown]

[Red Badger]

He’s entering the “No Ratings Zone”................

[Ann Archy]

“I need to spend more time with my family” was the only thing missing.

[Bunkasaurus]

“It takes a lot of time to prepare these remarks for the show, OK? A lot of time.
Ya can’t just come in here and wing it. You can not wing it. You just can’t, OK?
These gems don’t just write themselves, ya know. They just don’t. OK?”

[A.A. Cunningham]

Yawn ... The long goodbye continues.

O'Reilly Giving Up Radio Show, Will Focus On TV 19 September 2007

Ted "Loofahman" Baxter should just shut the hell up and go away.

[Canedawg]

Savage outrating Levin?

Ugh!!!

There’s no accounting for taste, I suppose...

[Pablo64]

"Going up against [Rush ] Limbaugh, that would be suicidal. Why would a listener who's already got Rush turn to someone else to hear the same things? "So I was doing a show that was fact-based. It was more news/talk."

So he is implying that Rush's show isn't "fact-based"? This is why I never liked O'Reilly. He thinks that he is the intellectual superior of everyone else and he talks down to everyone. He always talks about "no spin" while spinning so fast himself you could use him for a fan.

I say take his time and give Rush or Glenn more hours on the air.

Buh-bye Bill. Don't let the door hit you in the a** on the way out.

[Jeff Chandler]

Why would a listener who's already got Rush turn to someone else to hear the same things?

BOR is a pin head compared to Rush.

“...one of the most successful syndicated radio shows...”

It’s possible, considering lots of cat and dog owners leave the radio on to keep their pets company while they’re out.
