Bill O'Reilly, the mad dog of the Fox "News" Channel and talk radio, has written The O'Reilly Factor for Kids; A Survival Guide for America's Families.
Uh...yeah. This is the guy who has dropped racist hints in his commentaries and is prone to shouting "SHUT UP!" to his detractors while on the air!
