Synopsis

With three straight #1 bestsellers and more than 4 million copies of his books in print, the most powerful traditional force in the American media now takes off his gloves in the ongoing struggle for America’s heart and soul.

Bill O’Reilly is the very embodiment of the idea of a Culture Warrior—and in this book he lives up to the title brilliantly, with all the brashness and forthrightness at his command. He sees that America is in the midst of a fierce culture war between those who embrace traditional values and those who want to change America into a “secular-progressive” country. This is a conflict that differs in many ways from the usual liberal/conservative divide, but it is no less heated, and the stakes are even higher.
In Culture Warrior, Bill O’Reilly defines this war and analyzes the competing philosophies of the traditionalist and secular-progressive camps. He examines why the nation’s motto “E Pluribus Unum” (“From Many, One”) might change to “What About Me?”; dissects the forces driving the secular-progressive agenda in the media and behind the scenes, including George Soros, George Lakoff, and the ACLU; and dives into matters of race, education, and the war on terror. He also shows how the culture war has played out in such high-profile instances as The Passion of the Christ, Fahrenheit 9/11, the abuse epidemic (child and otherwise), and the embattled place of religion in public life—with special emphasis on the war against Christmas. Whatever controversies are roiling the nation, he fearlessly confronts them—and no one will be in the dark about which side he’s on.
Culture Warrior showcases Bill O’Reilly at his most eloquent and impassioned. He is an unrelenting fighter for the soul of America, and in this book he fights the good fight for the traditional values that have served this country so well for so long.

Unashamed of speaking the truth, the book gives you an understanding of where he is coming from and elaborates on the background of the secular progressive movement. It is truly shocking...

Culture warrior is a book aimed at traditionalist thought and the fight against the "secular progressive movement," which is a cause aimed at changing America from a free-market capitalist society into a mostly socialized socitey.

Goodreads review by Lisa on June 04, 2007

Bill O'Reilly does an articulate job of opening up our eyes to the real villains of the United States. They are corrupt, wealthy, conniving and viscious. I reccomend this book to anyone: conservative or liberal, democrat or republican and ask that you go in with an open mind and think through what h......more

Goodreads review by Alec on July 08, 2008

This is going to be a struggle to finish. O'Reilly loves straw men and ad hominem attacks, and it makes for a tedious, annoying read. However, I think it's important to understand who I'm arguing against, and O'Reilly is the voice for thousands, if not millions, of Americans, and no matter how wrong......more

Goodreads review by Julianne on February 17, 2011

I don't normally read much non-fiction, but this one has certainly claimed my attention! Well worth the time I spent on it. First let me say that I did the audio-book version, and I highly recommend you do the same. It is read by Bill O'Reilly himself! If you are a fan of Bill O'Reilly or Glenn Beck......more


Quotes

“[Bill O’Reilly’s] aura of command is fascinating. Success gives him extra authority. He is diamond bright, ready to pounce, and never at a loss for words.…I left Mr. O’Reilly’s super-hot domain trying to think of whom he reminded me. It came to me: Gen. George S. Patton, complete with ivory-handled revolvers on his hips, couldn’t exude more confidence, certainty, and know-how than Bill O’Reilly. No wonder Fox feels he’s their gem. His mojo is at an all-time high!”
