Tuesday evening saw the return of Bill O’Reilly to Fox News – for the first time since the channel’s #1 host was ousted five months earlier. It wasn’t exactly triumphant, but it may have come close. The occasion was a prominent guest spot broadcast live from Fox News studios on Sixth Avenue in New York City on Sean Hannity’s 9 P.M. E.T. program. O’Reilly has been laying relatively low since he was forced out of his job at Fox News last April 19, the result of a boycott of his show’s advertisers arising from rekindled published claims of sexual...

Newsmax has dropped a bombshell story about the credibility of the key accuser against former Fox host Bill O’Reilly. Had it not been for the allegations by Perquita Burgess, O’Reilly might not have been fired. But as it turns out, Burgess has an arrest for a false allegation in her past. Burgess did not complain to the network at the time and O’Reilly said the charges were false. Newsmax found two documents that called her credibility into question. The first was a police report concerning a fight with her boyfriend where she called them reporting he hit her in the...

But as TheBlaze reported on Friday, O’Reilly plans to hire several journalists and news producers to begin his own in-house video operation at BillOReilly.com. He even poached a producer from Fox News to work for him. Now more details have been released about O’Reilly’s future. According to Newser, O’Reilly said during at a public appearance on Long Island Saturday evening that he...

Bill is not going away quietly It is no secret that George Soros-backed Media Matters has long had a campaign against FNC and its dominant personalities.

".....Less than two months after O’Reilly’s departure, the Murdoch family fortune has declined substantially, as investors unsure of Fox News’ future have scrambled to escape what some think is a very slowly sinking ship. According to an analysis by Forbes of the Murdochs’ fortune, the family’s net worth is estimated to have declined by more than $1 billion since April 1. Forbes reports the decline is largely due to falling stock price of 21st Century Fox, the parent company of Fox News. On March 28, just a few weeks before O’Reilly was dismissed, the share price of 21st Century Fox...

Bill O'Reilly said on Tuesday that Fox News is unlikely to do away with host Sean Hannity, adding that the conservative network can't "handle another shake-up" after his own ouster. "It’s the same thing, the far left going after him, trying to get him off the air," O’Reilly told The Associated Press in an interview. "I think Hannity will survive because I don’t know if Fox can handle another shake-up like that." O'Reilly was fired from Fox News last month after a New York Times report revealed that the network had paid about $13 million in legal settlements to five...

Bill O’Reilly gave his first interview since his firing from Fox News in April on Glenn Beck’s radio show on Friday.Beck, while stating prior to the interview wouldn’t be about O’Reilly’s firing, nonetheless spoke to the former cable news powerhouse about his unceremonious dismissal. “Look, the entire ordeal was a hit job, and in the weeks to come, we will be able to explain some of it. It really has to do with destroying voices that the far-left doesn’t like. That’s the general tone,” O’Reilly said. O’Reilly went on to explain in vague terms “due to the legality,” of...

Bill O'Reilly says his former protege at Fox News, Jesse Watters, will continue to make a series of public appearances with him this year. Fox News has other ideas. O'Reilly has been actively promoting upcoming dates for "The Spin Stops Here Tour," a variation of the political comedy shows he has performed with Dennis Miller, the "Saturday Night Live" alum, since 2011.

April 28, 2017 (LifeSiteNews) – The dismissal of Bill O’Reilly from Fox News over allegations of sexual harassment doesn’t look good, especially coming as it does on the heels of the similarly dishonorable departure of former Fox CEO Roger Ailes. Could O’Reilly be the innocent victim of an ideological witch hunt? Did his head fall under the guillotine merely to further plans to transform Fox into another globalist, left-leaning CNN, as some have suggested? Perhaps. But somehow that theory seems too convenient. If there is any such liberal conspiracy (and maybe there is), it’s more likely that its leaders...

On the heels of major shakeups at the Fox News Network, an alternative conservative network is being actively discussed amongst conservative fat cats. A well-placed source close to the proposal tells Mediaite that serious discussions are underway to create an alternative conservative cable network on the belief that the Fox News Network is moving too far to the left. The source, who is engaged in the talks, says a meeting is planned for today with two prominent high-powered television executives, some underperforming conservative networks and people who have an interest and the ability to fund a new network. The potential...

Fox News dominated its first night in the post-Bill O'Reilly era as "Tucker Carlson Tonight" averaged 3.2 million viewers in the program's first night occupying the 8 p.m. ET timeslot. The debut of Carlson's new timeslot won was the most-watched cable news program in both viewers and the key demo of adults age 25-54.

"For those of you tuning in expecting to see someone different in this anchor chair, I know the feeling well. I watched...

How the mighty have fallen!” The biblical lament has particular relevance this week, as Bill O’Reilly—trusted by millions of Americans every weeknight since 1996 on his “spin-stopping” Fox News program The O’Reilly Factor—will not return to the network following an exposé of alleged sexual harassment incidents over the past decade. The announcement follows other high-profile departures from the nation’s top cable news network in recent months. Notably, prime-time anchor Megyn Kelly will soon debut as a news commentator for NBC News—following her lead role in last summer’s resignation by Fox News president and founder Roger Ailes, who was forced out...

Speaking to Breitbart News, the victims of Bill Clinton’s alleged sexual assaults  — Juanita Broaddrick, Kathleen Willey, and Paula Jones – blasted the news media for purportedly dismissing their own accusations while hailing the recent sexual harassment charges against Bill O’Reilly that led to the former television host’s dismissal from Fox News last week. All three women made clear they were not defending O’Reilly, but criticizing what they described as a news media double standard when it came to the treatment of their own serious charges against Clinton.
