I don't agree with the shirts, but parody/political satire is protected.

O'Reilly as a public figure has a venue to take care of himself.

The fact that they are using a combination of Fox's name along with a modification of their trademarked logo specifically for profit could be argued as an abuse of the concept of "fair use."

O'Reilly is a different case. He's fair game in terms of what the shirt depicts.
