Media Matters analysis of O'Reilly Factor guest appearances concludes Mr. Unbalanced leans right

Reported by Chrish - May 22, 2006

Media Matters for America reports that "Progressives factored out: The O'Reilly Factor dominated by Republicans, conservatives." The factual, mathematical study "shows that Republican and conservative guests have dominated The O'Reilly Factor during the first four months of 2006." Quel surprise! The chain of command from Murdoch to Ailes to O'Reilly insist that the show and network are fair and balanced, yet once again the bare FACTS show that claim to be untrue. O'Reilly will of course cry "smear!" and attack the messenger, but you can see for yourself that the numbers bely his false claims.
