The Murdoch family fired Bill O’Reilly, the top personality on cable news for the past 15 years, on Wednesday.
James and Lachlan Murdoch, two committed leftists, have a much different vision than their father for the FOX News channel.
The new FOX News will not include Bill O’Reilly. In fact, the Murdoch family did not even allow Bill to say good-bye to his friends and millions of fans.
They wiped Bill O’Reilly’s name from “The Factor” on Wednesday night.
On Wednesday night Bill O’Reilly posted a statement on his departure from FOX News.
Over the past 20 years at Fox News, I have been extremely proud to launch and lead one of the most successful news programs in history, which has consistently informed and entertained millions of Americans and significantly contributed to building Fox into the dominant news network in television. It is tremendously disheartening that we part ways due to completely unfounded claims. But that is the unfortunate reality many of us in the public eye must live with today. I will always look back on my time at Fox with great pride in the unprecedented success we achieved and with my deepest gratitude to all my dedicated viewers. I wish only the best for Fox News Channel.
