Ted Baxter is Rush’s nickname for Bill O’Reilly. This is a reference to the conceited blowhard TV anchorman played by Ted Knight on the Mary Tyler Moore Show in the 1970s.

Alan Colmes and Monica Crowley are panelists on O’Reilly’s political segment.

Not all that hard to figure out.

I always thought that Keith Olberman was trying to do a Ted Baxter impression, and botching it badly. It was the voice that did it for me. Tried imitating Ted Baxter, but wound up doing a pretty good Les Nesmond.
