Bill O'Reilly's "Apology": Still Spinning in the 'No Spin Zone'
by Peter Hart


.... Deception and doubletalk are nothing new on The O'Reilly Factor, where O'Reilly struggles to maintain the fiction that he isn't conservative-- while regularly inveighing against the "secularists," the "liberal media," National Public Radio, the ACLU and an assortment of Bush critics. Bush himself, meanwhile, is described by O'Reilly as "the closest modern president to what the Founding Fathers have in mind." ....

But if O'Reilly's in the mood to issue more apologies, he has his work cut out for him. ....

Peter Hart is an analyst at FAIR (www.fair.org ) and the author of "The Oh Really? Factor: Unspinning Fox News Channel's Bill O'Reilly" (Seven Stories Press, 2003).
