And Now For Something Completely Different . . .
If you were the National Society of Newspaper Columnists, who would you like to have as a speaker at your conference? If you chose Bill O'Reilly, you hit the nail on the head. And O'Reilly provided his keen insight to the opinionmakers' convention and was right on point with them. He lectured on the news side of the operation:
O'Reilly contended that many newspapers are losing circulation because they've allowed the "liberal" ideology of their editorial pages to "bleed into news coverage" -- despite, he said, there being a greater number of "traditional conservatives" than liberals in the American population. The result? "Audiences are estranged from most major newspapers," O'Reilly told the columnist attendees. "They hate you. When someone hates you, they're not going to give you your money."
Honestly, any group that invites O'Reilly to speak at their gathering deserves what they get.
