After repeated whining, O'Reilly -- who won't have "loathsome" "secular-progressives" on his show -- to appear on Oprah
On his radio and television programs, Bill O'Reilly repeatedly stated that Oprah Winfrey has hosted more "secular-progressives" and "liberals" than "conservatives" and "traditionalists" on her television show. He also complained that "Oprah has declined to interview me, even though I had four number-one best-selling books." After days of attention to the subject, O'Reilly announced on ABC's The View that he would be appearing on Winfrey's show.

nobody likes a rude, overbearing, and smart alecky guest which is what he shows himself to be. he rarely allows anyone to complete an answer before getting his attitude shoved down the throats of his guests. he is confrontational to the point of copmpletely denying anyonme to have an opinion he doesn't like and will force his views on his audience by claiming it's a no-spin answer, when , in fact, it's his opinion and only his opinion that counts. he ignors any reasoning which he dislikes and accuses others of not caring without really delving into his subject first, having made up his mind prior to ever found out all the facts instaed of just a few.

Oprah does have quite a liberal viewpoint and she does host more Secular progressives than Conservatives. O'Reilly has as much right to his opinion as anyone else does. Now, after 4 best sellers, she's having him on her show. I'm sure she won't be a rude and condescending as that idiot Letterman.

Bill does put SP's on his show if they will come. Oprah invited Bill after he made so many comments, just like Dave! Bill also pointed out the fact that Oprah is actually a cultural warrior, and she didn't realize it until they met. Bill is not a right winger as so many of you say, he is a Libertarian with some Conservative views many Liberals would agree with some of his points if they actually watched his show. But I guess hating Bill is PC these days.

I am getting a little tired of O'Reilly, if he is going to be on Fox that act like Hannity instead of some way in the middle

Amazing. I've heard O'Reilly called a lot of things by his critics. Some of them are even true. This is the 1st time I've heard him called a flip flopper. He has had many leftists on his show. Ig you watched it you would know that.
He has frequently complained about the inbalance on a lot of other talk shows, with good reason I might add.

Bill O'Reilly is a fulltime Tool. I wish my fellow conservatives would realize this very soon. We just keep stuffing his pockets and that's quite frankly really all he is after.

if u notice on his show...... now that the Republicans lost the election he is having a LOT more "entertainment" news instead of actual news
he was complaining about Oprah so she would let him on her show....... he had no reason to be on her show until he started whining

I did not elect him to run my country or my state - if he flip flops or not, it really doesn't matter to me.
As a side note - I don't think he does. He is pretty consistent in his views on things.
Do you ever change your mind - I do - and everyone is entitled to that without being called a flip-flopper.

Because he's greedy. I can respect someone for standing up for what they believe in, even if it's not what I believe.
When he changes his tune just to sell a book - that's shameful.

Does anyone really take him seriously...besides himself of course?
I saw him on Oprah and Greta and his ridiculous SP ramblings blah blah blah......it was funny! Too bad he didn't jump on the couch...that would have been funny too.
