Where will Bill O’Reilly go next?
By Joe Concha, opinion contributor - 04/19/17 01:10 PM EDT
With the stunning news that Bill O'Reilly is out at Fox News, the big question is: What's next for "The Factor" host?
Despite being the top-rated cable news host for the past 15 years, the opportunities appear surprisingly thin.
CNN?
No chance.
MSNBC?
Insert joke here.
His former home at CBS News?
Try again.
His former home of ABC News?
Absolutely not.
A walk across the street to NBC News for a reunion with Megyn Kelly?
Rhetorical question.
So what's left?
Some right-leaning outlets are looking for a big name.

Who cares?
-
With a net worth of $70MM+, he should go into retirement.
-
Podcast, baby.
-
Dancing with the stars?
White House press secretary?
-
I think he'll just concentrate on writing books and giving speeches. He was getting tired of the nightly gig anyway. He doesn't need it. Now he can focus on his passion and I'm sure he will be quite happy being free and doing what he loves.

It sounds like there may be a vacuum where Alex Jones is sitting.
-
I can care less.
I never liked any of the TV blowhards. Levin was okay for awhile when he got started, but now.... I do not watch or listen to any of them anymore.
I feel much better as I am sure my blood pressure is down as a result.
Reading my news is much more rewarding anyway. I no longer have to hear the views of someone else ringing in my ears or wondering what the faux conservatives have to say.

So how much do you care if you can care less. How much less can you care?
All joking aside, I hope he doesn't go to OANN as I've enjoyed not seeing any of the FOX crew there.
-
It is way past time for OReilly to fade into the sunset. I wish they had put Watters into his time slot though. He is more entertaining than moving the 5 into prime time.

He could host the FOX edition of

Where will Bill O’Reilly go next?
Where everyone goes after they get fired....

...There's no proof, no day in court, just a bunch of BS thrown against the wall that doesn't even amount to actual 'Sexual Harassment'.....none of the Bimbos are saying that he laid a hand on them.
This is all phony baloney, plastic banana bull-$h*t......as is everything about demorats and the vermin in the fake news media.
-
He will be the next White House press secretary, after Spicey gets exiled to St. Helena.

I wish I could get OANN here, but I can't catch a reliable stream. :shrug:

Early on O’Reilly became a book seller who had a TV show.

Every now and then I find myself driving across country at 4 AM. Not much on the radio except America All Night, or some similar name I don't recall. They sometimes talk UFO's or some other type of conspiracy. I can listen to it because they don't scream into the microphone or constantly have to wipe foam from their mouths. The guests are typically well spoken, logical and sound more or less sane. So I'll listen, I'm curious.
Then it makes me wonder why Alex Jones has any audience at all.

Podcast, baby.
Called it.

@JannTosh
I experienced sexual harassment. Does that make me a bimbo?
There are a lot of gold-diggers out there and a lot of women who will make false accusations. There are also a lot of (blanks) like O'Reilly with long histories of harassment.

Yet to hear exactly what O'Reilly (or Hannity) is supposed to have done.
Groping, innuendo, joking around, ???
I suppose in this era, or empowerment and entitlement and feelings, it can be just about anything.

@truth_seeker
When did Hannity enter into it?
First of all, groping---are you saying that's nothing? That a woman should put up with it? Because you can't be serious.
Do you have a daughter? Wife? Mother? Sister? If any of them were being harassed by an aging, bag-faced pervert who made sexual remarks, who repeatedly tried to get them in bed, and who appeared without clothes on when one of them went to his door, well, I wonder if you'd consider it a joke then.
Ailes and O'Reilly ran Fox News like they were a couple of old Rat Pack wannabes and the women there were nothing but meat for their pleasure. Margaret Hoover said that when she appeared on The Factor, O'Reilly would talk about the length of her skirt, her makeup, her appearance, etc. She said she knew she was walking a tightrope because all of the female employees knew that you needed to keep shut and take whatever he handed out if you wanted to keep your job. O'Reilly himself made the remark that if someone complained, he would make them wish they'd never been born.
Innuendo or a remark isn't much when a woman can brush it off and tell the man this is business, enough, let's keep it that. But when she knows she'll lose her job if she doesn't take whatever gets dished out by some power-mad creep, that's entirely different.
What kind of doormats do you expect women to be?
I'm not a feminist, and nobody is going to tell me I'm "entitled" if I refuse to take crap like that from someone or lose my job.

O'Reilly has denied it. But Soros has arranged "better" sources, which have convinced you otherwise apparently.
BTW I have a wife, daughter, mother, sisters, and have been a strong advocate for treating women well.

@truth_seeker
Of course. It's Soros. Everything is Soros.
In the backlash against blaming men for everything, some conservatives--mostly men, but a good number of women--now go to the other extreme and automatically blame women. Sexual harassment at work? Well, you're just a bimbo and a gold-digger so shut up and take it.
Your last post certainly wasn't an advocate of treating women well. And I notice you didn't answer my question about groping.

Groping is wrong. Is O'Reilly accused of groping?

Sound like a very thinly supported accusation. And wouldn't the female be a willing participant, in phone sex?

If it was on the phone, how does the accuser know he was actually, er, wanking?

Glad to hear you say it.
Earlier I posted to you some of the things O'Reilly did. If you're really interested, google can help you learn more.

Do you simply believe anything written about conservative personalities on the internet, usually by highly biased sources?
