I've just seen this O'reilly cut off a guest he invited on his show, while she was relating her point and tells her on international tv that she is wrong.. when clearly she is right. He didnt let her prove her point.
How is it possible that many americans allow for this old, proud, ignorant man to still report for them? Shouldnt he retire by now? He looks like his times up!!

O'Reilly is a money maker for Fox. People don't like him particularly but he draws large audiences and this, of course, means lots of cash for advertising space. This is the American way. I have often been very angry at O'Reilly because he cuts people off intimating that he is the only one who knows the answers. His manners are atrocious, however, he does hit issues on the button from time to time and he is not a dummy. I often learn a great deal from O'Reilly and his guests in spite of the anger that he creates in me.

Bill O'Reilly has done that with many guests. There's nothing unusual about that. The reason people like the O'Reilly Factor is because Bill O'Reilly actually debates with his guests. Watch any of the other news networks. The hosts don't debate with the guests. You just get rehearsed interviews. That's why a lot of people don't want to be on the O'Reilly Factor. Bill O'Reilly forces his guests to reveal things to the public that they normally would not. It's the same reason why Hannity and Colmes is so popular. People want to listen to a debate.

Mr. O 'Reilly is a good in depth reporter.I cant say he is not smart.I have enjoyed Mr. O' Reilly for sometime.Hes smart
intelligent, uncanny and has great strength fundamentally.He
shouldn't be hated nor should anyone ever try to judge another persons feelings.We are all humans and learn from watching
Mr. O' Reilly from what we like or don't and things we need to know or maybe were to ignorant to use our whit's and understand relevant knowledge for common sense.Times change that's why schooling is radical.Mr.O' Reilly can be either a good or a bad teacher he reports and we need to diffract whats best in our lives.

Fox is hard core conservative. Bill O is a tragic figure from the past who desires all to capitulate to his views.
He is an insubstantial journalist unable to distinguish fact from fiction, this speaks volumes of his viewers.

The mistake you are making is that Fox news, is actually in the news business. It is not.

Yet there you sit, bloviating on Yahoo answers, and he's a millionaire. Tough, ain't it?

Stop watching him; lots of people have quit.
He is the most disgusting personage on television, or any other media for that matter.
