Sources: Fox News Has Decided Bill O’Reilly Has to Go
NY Magazine ^ | April 19, 2017 | Gabriel Sherman

The Murdochs have decided Bill O’Reilly’s 21-year run at Fox News will come to an end. According to sources briefed on the discussions, network executives are preparing to announce O’Reilly’s departure before he returns from an Italian vacation on April 24. Now the big questions are how the exit will look and who will replace him.

Wednesday morning, according to sources, executives are holding emergency meetings to discuss how they can sever the relationship with the country’s highest-rated cable-news host without causing collateral damage to the network. The board of Fox News’ parent company, 21st Century Fox, is scheduled to meet on Thursday to discuss the matter.

Mark Steyn would be fantastic. I would watch for sure. I loved his short TV run.

They can close the doors.

Without him, they got bit players. Good people, but not the same draw.

The Murdocks are liberals. In the end, they don’t want to go against their own kind.

I don’t think so.

The other nut has really spouted leftist stuff sometimes.

And she told huckabee that he may not believe it but female fox workers have sex before work, curse and boss men around.

That’s the kind of “talent” they’re looking for at those stations

His show had a comedy / entertainment / education element.

It will be hard to follow.

I like Tucker Carlson, but bickering is unwatchable.

I like Kennedy on Fox Business, a good substitute for BOR.

Fox will probably consider replacing Bill O’Reilly with Shep Smith.

At least they won’t worry about him harassing women.

No they won’t. He is done. The Murdochs are going to get a very expensive lesson. The folks like the show and the names the article suggests as replacements are laughable.

It’s an opportunity to upgrade. BOR, like him or hate him is a tough ratings act to follow. I think few could surpass his ratings. RUSH Limbaugh is one of them.

The Murdock punks are left wing, metrosexual. No big surprise. The media will be extreme left wing and irrelevant within five years.

Fox News is toast.
