O’Reilly: ‘Fox News Is Not A Far-Right Operation’
In an interview with CNN founder Ted Turner Tuesday night, Bill O’Reilly claimed that those who believe that Fox News is a conservative outlet are sorely mistaken:
O’REILLY: Right and I’m a nice guy. Well, maybe that’s overstating. I’m an honest guy, who’s just trying to do the best I can. But, you know, I think that you underestimate Fox News and its appeal to traditional Americans.
TURNER: That’s true. And I also said in there that I knew that that was our most vulnerable spot before I even went on the air with CNN that a right wing network would pose a threat because not only was CNN pretty much in the middle but so were CBS, NBC, and ABC. And you’re right. The far right did not have a voice.
O’REILLY: You can’t possibly think that Fox News is a far right operation? I mean, because it’s not.
TURNER: I do.
O’REILLY: Oh, come on. I mean, maybe coming from a Jane Fonda point of view it is, but come on.
TURNER: Well, I was married to Jane Fonda.
O’REILLY: I know. I mean, but how can - I’m a far right guy? I mean, the far right hates me. You either don’t watch or you’re so far left.

I am glad I missed this extremely nauseating interview.
Both Turner and Falafel are delusional.
