Synopsis

The million-copy New York Times bestseller from the Fox News anchor who’s brought new excitement–and massive amounts of populist common sense and rock-solid honesty–to television news.

Now four seasons strong, Bill O’Reilly’s nightly cable news program, “The O’Reilly Factor,” is one of the hottest shows on the air. In book form, The O’Reilly Factor has sold over a million copies and spent fourteen weeks at the top of the New York Times bestseller list. Obviously, Bill O'Reilly has made his mark. His blunt, ironic, no-holds-barred style has earned him a devoted audience–friends and foes alike–who send him five thousand letters every week. And with the wit and intelligence that have made him one of the most talked-about stars in both television and publishing, O’Reilly continues to identify what’s right, what’s wrong, and what’s absurd in the political, social, economic, and cultural life of America.

This book, in short, has saved my life. I got this book when I needed it most.

Goodreads review by Joseph on March 12, 2010

Listened to the audio cds. Mildly interesting, and not as bad as I thought it would be. He has a mostly reasonable opinion; about 85% of things he says everyone agrees with, but he does tend to sneak in the odd thing as if it were common knowledge. Warning. Excessive use of retarded acronyms. With t......more

"It's hard to pin a label on Bill O'Reilly. Is he a liberal conservative or a conservative liberal?  But whatever his political leanings, his show is a hard-hitting, fast-moving discussion of events at the top of the news. No one walks away from it, guest or viewer, without admiration for The O'Reilly Factor."
—Geraldine A. Ferraro

"Bill O'Reilly overpowers . . . with his direct, take-no-prisoners point of view. How a Gentile could be the greatest talk show host in history is something I will never be able to figure out."
