success because jon stewart beat out every other host every other show on fox news except for bill o'reilly and he's neither funny nor big breasted or attractive love you know let's put it bluntly you know what as far as the press there's plenty of breasts on the o'reilly show he has this regular segment now with kimberly guilfoyle and lisa real i think her name is they do this legal segment they're on all the time if you look at the camera angles it's no mistake the way that they're shooting that segment i mean o'reilly has done very well for a long time his program is compelling even if you don't agree with the framing i mean i watch it not not when it's live but i regularly check out clips i want to know what's going on there you know jon stewart can't be everybody on my t.v. he's pretty high up in the numbers you got to hit the channel up button plenty of times to get it from all right jon stewart so he can't beat everybody but what he's got has been remarkable and the show really has been great recently do you think that it's a little easier for people like him and even called bear bec

you know, that's the thing that bill o'reilly will never understand. you got your own biases that are built-in spin. and i wish to god he would have me on my show so i could say, "bill, you're doing it right now. you're spinning right now." [laughs] but i think that a lot of people just find me to be off-putting and aggressive. and then because we are a culture that-- we demand our women to be, um, attractive in a very mainstream way, that is another thing that they are like-- in a lot of reviews of my shows and a lot of reviews about me, people find it necessary to comment on my physical appearance, which they never do for male comics, never. it would never, ever happen. they would never say, "i just saw bill maher last night, and looks like he's gained some weight" or blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, you know? this, that, and the other. but i've gotten, "janeane garofalo looking like an unmade bed." and then one person put something like-- in an interview, that said, "let's hope her new year's resolution entails joining a gym." because our culture object

i'm bill ol o'reilly.ng us now from asheville, north carolina, to analyze, the purveyor of bernard goldberg.com mr. goldberg. as we have been discussing breitbart, the guy who broke, this andrew breitbart who will be on hannity coming up next really crucified by the left wing smear machine on the net. some bleedover into msnbc and the other liberal precincts. now, what is the liberal media have to do because of weiner's confession? >> well, they are going to cover the story as they would cover any hard news story at this point. there is no more covering for anthony weiner after this confessional that we saw today. so, that's what they are going to do. but what i find really interesting, bill, is that liberals on the web, nbc, their main broadcast, the nightly news brian williams said that he wasn't covering the story because he had more compelling things to cover. doesn't it occur to any of these journalists and there are others who can i name by the way, doesn't it occur to any of these journalists that a

and i would refer people to the video of his interview with bill o'reilly.ppen is what didn't happen with chris wallace. chris wallace was sort of sticking to his guns and throwing outlines that arguments that could have been made three, four years ago, john stu are the and a bill o'reilly had a really reasonable discussion once they got done sort of hitting each other a couple types back akupc. but they had an excellent judgment about news judgment and the way it's exercised, why fox news goes wall to wall on obama but not after ted nugent. felt like a conversation among equals. >> that's not what jon stewart said. he said he was so badly edited, he looked like a woman on the verge of a nervous break down. >> the daily show edits interviews and fox by putting the complete 24 minutes or whatever it was online, we all got to see and make our own judgment. you'd agree? we have a rare moment. that means it's time for me to get a break. up next, countdown is back on the air. can keith olbermann lure the liberals to al gore's network? ♪ well, you know i love it t

his nationally syndicated show out of fargo north dakota and his ratings are good he's matching bill o'reilly's numbers. so let's see talkers magazine now is out the ed schultz show is going over three million listers progressive talk got its start in two thousand and four and it now seems to be having an effect on many formerly red states that heard ed and noble and air america were highly competitive who were voted blue in two thousand and eight while those that heard only conservative talk went read. as usual that could be me but here's the scary part since the democrats made gains in the two thousand and six election corporate radio took to get into every other progressive talker in the key swing state of ohio off the air first and. then columbus and replaced them with shows they get half their ratings it will they're out there greasing the skids right now in the winter of those seven with a zero point six number. when i was on there in the fall of zero five it was like a two point four brain scan is strange to me you did. mark it if your camera probably it isn't just ohio since two thousan

. >> you say bill o'reilly, sean hannity at fox don't have to be dangerous. >> well, their guests are. it's a forum for the republican party. msnbc is a forum for the democratic party. that's what they are. denying that is silly. i think roger ailes is a seen yous. >> you're not saying they don't intend to be fair, but -- >> they're not journalists, they're hosts of shows. >> they get ratings. >> that's what they do. it's such a small box in the world. look at the top 15 cable shows. you know what the most popular show on cable is?
