Fox ditched Glenn Beck, who at the time was one of their biggest draws, when Beck became too big a liability for them. If anything, O'Reilly is worse than Beck ever was.

I'd like to kick him in the gonads as hard as my old ass could muster the energy. He's done more harm to this country than many of the other right wingers
