List of radio stations that carry O'Reilly's radio show The two stations in my market (San Jose/San Francisco) don't come in very good at my house and I only caught the last half hour of the live feed. That segment talked a bit on abusive men and the women who tolerate them with some in-studio female guest who's name I didn't catch.
O'Reilly said before the debut that the show would be more social issues than politics, although no doubt politics will have to creep in from time to time.

O'Reilly is an obnoxious RINO when he's on Fox News.When did O'Reilly become a Republican ?

Technically O'Reilly isn't a "RINO" since he's never claimed to be a Republican, as far as I know (correct me if I'm wrong). Of course he is all over the spectrum politically like RINOs can be.
To: TigerTale
He was referring to ED Donahey, who guest co-hosted with him, apparently.
I don't get O'Reilly until 10 pm tonight, who edged out Dennis Praeger on KRLD in Dallas.
This is an all-news station, and they are NOT going to put any syndicated talk on during the day.

Did the liar apologize to Drudge and his listeners yet?

I doubt that I personally will avail myself of the opportunity to sample O'REALLY'S radio show. The Nashville affiliate is WWTN, an FM talker that "moved in" with a marginal signal from nearby Murfreesboro. The station has cleared O'REALLY? from 10pm-12midnight, according to the list Fox provided. O'REALLY? is live at the same time as Dave Ramsey's financial/money talk show, and since WTN is Dave's flagship in a 110-station net, they are not likely to clear out THAT slot. And the rest of the day is pretty much carved in stone, too. Which leaves 10pm to midnight.
And I can think of better things to do at that hour.

Boring. Sounds like what my impression of "The View" or Oprah is, though I haven't watched
more than 2 minutes of either, and that was years ago.
Gave it about 45 minutes. Mike Tyson? Give me a break. Can't even remember the other topics.
Note to Bill: Don't quit your evening job if you can't do better than today's offering.

People just like her. But not more the O'Reilly, it seems. Or was 'Talkola' involved?
To: TigerTale
Sorry, wasn't listening. There's this other show on that me and a few of my friends listen to.
ED on the radio? What's the point in that?
To: TigerTale
Competition is right. He goes smack up against Rush.
To: Calvin Locke
Could've been Talkola. Nobody even knew it was happening locally until early this week.
To: Diplomat
You've also got Savage on AM 830 at 4 pm.

I'm enjoying the show. ED Donahey from Fox and Friends is his co-host and was talking about her impending third marriage and asked O'Reilly for advice. Her second guy ran off with the babysitter. They talked about what keeps men interested.
He criticized the Palestinian he had on the show last night and played excerpts. He talked about Cardinal Law and the scandal. Rita Cosby was on talking about her interview with Mike Tyson. The last half hour people called in with personal problems or questions.
Some have said that O'Reilly shouldn't be paying stations to take his show, but it's actually done ALL THE TIME. Drudge shouldn't be so jealous. It's very unbecoming.
Best of all, O'Reilly's not bashing Bush repetitiously for hours. When he finished one topic, he went on to another one. Some of you people are so critical because he's competition to Rush. You can still have your Rush and his relentless 3 hr hammering of the same thing over and over, but some of us appreciate the competition.
To: RickyJ
I don't know if BOR has apologized to Drudge, but he should. I heard his call-in (December, I think) when Drudge reported on the plans for an afternoon talk show when Rush's ability to hear in the future was in doubt.
He tried to claim "high-level-what-if discussion only" and that "this kind of stuff is thrown around all the time," and other blah-blah. He told Drudge and his 2 million or so listeners that there were no active plans to get into radio. In retrospect, this is obvious BS.
I've lost a ton of respect for BOR. I'm still a fan, but anything he says about himself is now suspect.
BOR's format is apparenty going to be to have a co-host and frequent guests. Not doing either of these is why Rush and Savage are so successful, and why O'Reilly's show is likely to be the same-old same-old.
To: Dr. Scarpetta
ED Donahey is worried about keeping men interested? Half the men in America are interested in ED Donahey. What, does she have a third eye on her back or something?
I don't get O'Reilly til late tonight, and I can't last past 11:00, so I'll miss most of it.
I've quit listening to Limbaugh over the last couple of weeks. I tried again today, but it was nothing but three hours of trashing Bush.
I've listened to him for twelve years, but he's losing me with this relentless and never-ending complaining.
Music is easier to work by any way.

I'v had the same reaction to Rush. He is simply not able to make his criticisms against Pres. Bush and move on to other topics. It's like an obsession with him. There are so many things in the news, and Rush has no curiosity about any of them.
BTY, Molly is continuing to improve!

Reports hereabout that they're paying large dollars to get his show cleared, even on bad stations, in major markets. Not a good start, but to sustain the gasbag's ego, probably a necessary one.
To: Tao Yin
What station is Lynn Cullen on? While she is an unabashed flaming liberal that is obnoxious more often than not, I still like listening to her... just for kicks... keeps the blood flowing through the heart... at a rapid pace.
To: TigerTale
Not listening. Bill has been reading too many of his own press releases and book promos.

When did O'Reilly become a Republican ? Now, now, now!!! Let's not confuse the pi$$ and moan crowd with facts.
I'm in favor of a basic IQ test to permit posts on FR. It's obvious that some of these morons couldn't pass. They perpetually let their aligator mouths overload their hummingbird rear-ends.
