O'Reilly often talks about how he just cares about the "folks" and has a general anti-business tone. He is not against big government. I watch him regularly and like his activism, but I do not think he has a well-defined political belief system that will allow him to do 15 hours a week of unscripted radio, including handling callers.

On his show each night, he delivers a couple of prepared statements (monologues), interviews a guest or two, reads selected viewer e-mail ("keep it pithy"), shows a reply to make him look psychic and often rants a bit. Maybe 10-15 minutes a night of unscripted "top-of-the-head" commentary. This compared with 150 minutes or more a day on radio, covering a MUCH BROADER range of topics. I don't think he can handle it.
