Will O'Reilly Blame Washington Times Fall On Its Right Wing Slant?

In April of this year, Bill O'Reilly wrote that "The New York Times is most definitely a committed left-wing concern that is openly contemptuous of the conservative, traditional point-of-view. That is the primary reason the paper may soon dissolve." He's layed the same wood to the Philadelphia Inquirer, Los Angeles Times and pretty much any newspaper or mainstream media outlet who wrote or said something Bill disagreed with.

This week I'm sure he will offer the same rationale in explaining why The Washington Times, the decidedly right wing newspaper arm of the Republican Party, announced Wednesday that it is laying off at least 40 percent of its staff and shifting mainly to free distribution.

Different than any of the newspapers who Bill has blamed left-wing leanings for their losses, the Times pretty much admitted its long time bias saying that it will cease any presumed semblance of being a bona fide full-coverage daily, factual coverage of the news and instead offer "cultural coverage based on traditional values" - right wing code for right wing.

Obviously, Bill will spend this week's column and any number of his Factor's Talking Points explaining how The Washington Time's collapse is the result of it being a committed right wing concern that is openly contemptuous of the middle of the road, traditional point of view.............
