`  :Sdedeo has it correct, O'Reilly is a career journalist. Those comparisons (by Ilyag) are valid, but they only add small weight, in my mind. Al Franken is a humorist and comedian, by career; Howard Stern is a disc jockey; Liddy is a lawyer; Savage is a nutritionist; only one or two even have a background in journalism, let alone making an entire career of it.  To me, the POV here is best exemplified in the statement, ``He himself does no journalistic work.``  Going all the way back to college, Bill O'Reilly is a journalist, by education, by background, by career (except for short stint in secondary education), as recognized by his peers (read: the awards).  Again, to characterize an individual life by one job, seems nnPOV to me.  To characterize The O'Reilly Factor as mere blogging, is nnPOV as well.   `
