Bill O'Reilly Hearts Miley Cyrus - A Retrospective
It's not just your humble correspondent who has noticed that the divinely inspired Bill O'Reilly seems to be quite interested in the career and activities of Miley Cyrus. When O'Reilly visited The View, on October 1st, guest host Jason Biggs asked O'Reilly about Ms. Cyrus because O'Reilly "talks a lot about her." O'Reilly denied that he does so and explained his paternal interest in her. Given the multitude of Factor shows, throughout the years, O'Reilly is correct in that he hasn't talked "a lot" about Cyrus. But his fascination with what she does and what she wears has stretched across the years and he still wants to be her daddy.

Robin Leach, of Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous fame, visited Fox & Friends yesterday to complain that there are “so few” rich people left in America that he wouldn’t be able to do his show any more. And guess which president and his “socialist” policies are to blame?
Read moreShutdown Senator Cruz: ‘Encouraged’ And ‘Inspired’ To Fight On – And Abolish The IRS
Take heart, Tea Partiers. If you’re feeling down because Senator Ted Cruz’ government shutdown stunt did little more than cost the country $24 billion, bludgeon Republican standings and, rather than defund and destroy Obamacare, make it more popular, you’ll be glad to know that Cruz and his Tea Party shutdown pal, Senator Mike Lee, are not at all discouraged by the end of the shutdown. They have not only vowed to fight on, Cruz has named the IRS as his next target.
Read morePiers Morgan Describes Bill O'Reilly: 'What A Dick!'
This morning, Piers Morgan explained on Howard Stern’s SiriusXM radio show why he describes Bill O’Reilly as “a dick.” Hint: It has to do with O’Reilly arrogantly snubbing Morgan and later asking for a photo on behalf of his (O’Reilly’s) daughter.
Read moreBill O'Reilly Attacks 'Killing Jesus' Critics Who 'Despise Religion'
Bill O'Reilly once advised the folks to ignore their "enemies." But Bill's inability to follow his own advice or, dare we say, hypocrisy, was shown by last night's O'Reilly screed in which he savaged those who do not believe that the divinely inspired "Killing Jesus" is the most awesome book evah. The devoutly Catholic O'Reilly framed his discussion around how the evil, librul media and "the left" despise religion - a popular victim card played by those who claim that it's the poor who play the victim. But the discussion was really all about poor Bill as it soon morphed into O'Reilly's patented baseless attacks on those who, I guess, are Bill's "enemies" because they dare to deride his faith (of which he is such a stellar example). Howard Kurtz tried to add some reason to the discussion; but as is true in life writ large, those who are "faith based" can be quite unreasonable!
Read moreFox Guest Suggests Government Shutdown Will Be ‘Very Healthy’ For The Economy
In case you’re wondering how Fox News plans to spin the pending deal to end the government shutdown, we got a good glimpse earlier today on America’s News HQ. Not surprisingly, it casts the Republican-caused shutdown as a plus for the economy and blamed President Obama for lacking leadership on the budget (read: enact Republican spending cuts).

Sometimes a Fox News headline tells you all you need to know about its bias:
Read moreKrauthammer Smacks Down O'Reilly On Why Redskins Should Change Their Name
Clearly, we can count Bill O'Reilly in the "Native Americans are being too sensitive about the 'Redskins' name" club at Fox News. Last night, he seemed to think he'd find a kindred spirit in guest Charles Krauthammer. But no. In an extended - and very enjoyable - smackdown, Krauthammer nailed it repeatedly. Best line: "If I were to ask you how many Indian Americans or Native Americans are in the Congress, you would not say, 'There are two redskins.'"
Read moreThe Government Shutdown Is Still A 'Slimdown' To Fox News
Apparently, there's some (probably ambitious) web producer or producers at FoxNews.com who just won't stop calling the government shutdown a "slimdown." Even though Fox News' own Howard Kurtz called the term a "mistake" and mocked it for trying to make the shutdown seem like “some kind of sensible Weight Watchers" diet plan for government spending. And then, after Stephen Colbert had some fun with it at Fox News' expense, the term seemed to disappear. But it's back!
Read moreMegyn Kelly Wants You To Ignore The Racism And Violence At 'Million' Veterans Demonstration
Megyn Kelly was a vision of patriotic support for the Million Veteran March demonstration held last weekend – and a scold for that biased media (by which she meant everyone but Fox News) that focused on the extremist elements that Kelly insisted were not representative of the crowd. But Kelly's choice of guests, anti-immigrant extremist Dennis Michael Lynch - there to provide the supposedly unvarnished truth - was no assurance at all.
