Missing factor:
Foxnews, specially O'Rielly, is the world's most successful News medium - in record time. 99.9% of all he says, happens to be well founded and honest, as opposed trendy correct, and its antithesis based on a wish list of destruction and chaos if it was accepted and incurred.
Here is their virtual sole source, the military and propaganda arms of the current administration:

Some people believe that power automatically confers truth, be it from Stalin, Bush, Charlie Manson, Jim Jones, or Pol Pot depending upon whichever one is geographically closest.
The term commonly used to describe such people is authoritarian, which is the antithesis of democracy.
O'Reilly is not only an authoritarian shill for the current administration, he is also often too stupid to even get the program right.
For just one telling example, O'Reilly twice blamed the Malmady massacre of unarmed troops during the Battle of the Bulge upon the American GIs of the greatest generation rather than upon the Nazi SS. He continued to proclaim this baldface lie as fact for days until the pressure became overwhelming.
As a veteran of the US Army, I consider this insult beyond the pale. I doubt that in this one case he cleared the story with the pentagon masters before broadcast.
To me this showed exactly where his true allegiance lies, and it is
not to the United States or Western civilization.
IMHO O'Reilly is a liar and a traitor.
