There is an irony somewhere. O'Reilly is being dropped from freaking FOX for being a Deplorable

But there is a Deplorable in the White House.


Tell me again who is winning the culture war. The Deplorables don't seem to have a lot of economic muscle.

Deplorable worked very profitably for o'lielly, his sponsors, and foxnews for a long time.

And it will continue to work for foxnews and those same sponsors.

Just not for o'lielly so much anymore, but only because he crossed a line that's way, way out there. Way, way too many times.

I'll take the win, but he didn't get shut down for his on-air content. Fox and the sponsors were fine with all that.
