O'Reilly and Gallagher Promoting Books on Liberal Conspiracy

"My goal," Bill O'Reilly writes in the introduction to his latest book, Culture Warrior, which is published by Random House's Broadway Books imprint and will go on sale September 25, "is to expose and defeat people who have the power to do you great harm. My weapons will be facts and superior analysis based on those facts" (read more - Media Matters=http://mediamatters.org/items/200609220010)
Note: O'Reilly has given his enemy a new name - The "SP" or "Secular-Progressive" movement.
Liberals like to pretend that there isn’t a media bias when it comes to the coverage of the Bush Administration or the war. Despite the fact that newsrooms are filled with dyed-in-the-wool liberals, there’s a preposterous attempt to portray the mainstream press as fair and objective (read more - Mike Gallagher-Townhall)

The big question: Do/can neo-cons actually read? Loyal rightie groupies will probably buy these books; wonder how many will read them? Hope they have covers that look good on a coffee table.
Here's the Cliff Notes version: They are bad. They are wrong. They are picking on us.
 
Once again O'Reilly proves he's nothing more than a blow-hard. He's always right, everyone who disagrees with him is wrong, and there's no room for argument.

Fred, the neo-cons can and do read, and that's just the problem: this is more fodder to energize them. While I may agree with the idea that the mainstream media has a liberal bias, there are many more things that O'Reilly promotes that I disagree with, and the whole premise of "Culture Warrior" seems to be based around them. The neo-cons eat this crap up... and do so blindly, without realizing that what they're agreeing with isn't what true conservatism is based on. That's what makes it so dangerous to my side of the spectrum: they, as the more vocal group , manage to get all of us on the right labeled as hate-mongers and theocons. Obviously that description doesn't fit all of us, but the image spreads like a wildfire thanks to crap like this.

In essence, while perhaps for different reasons, I agree with your asessment on the book. It's tripe.
