Bill O'Reilly Is Sounding A Tad Liberal
For at least a month I have noticed a change in Bill O'Reilly's argument and rhetoric. He seems to slant for Obama often, something I have not seen in a few years. Bill is nothing like Alan Colmes, certainly not that far over. I just see, maybe because I am a freelance writer who has covered the political beat for so long O'Reilly moving from the right (not far right) in a steady and diffident stride more to the center and then slightly to the left of same. Bill is not making his arguments now as a Conservative and he is defending Obama when it would be apparent to criticize him. We all know that huge conglomerates are through their ownership and influence exerting pressure and demands on news organizations. Fox News has a long history of hiring personalities who flip their original ideologies and morph into opposite characters. Examples are Dennis Miller and Geraldo Rivera. Dennis stayed flipped as a Conservative. Geraldo played the Conservative for awhile and curiously now is back to his 1960's liberal shouting attorney persona. As a Republican I would really like to see a conservative news program. If I am correct about O'Reilly caving into the very faction or corporate demand that we oppose then I will have to turn the radio on for my politics.
