From The Reporter’s Notebook
Conservative commentator George Will has been going after Bill O’Reilly over the Fox News host’s sourcing for his latest book, “Killing Reagan.” According to TPM’s Caitlin MacNeal, O’Reilly’s book, which hypothesizes about how a 1981 assassination attempt impacted Ronald Reagan’s mental state, has drawn the ire of numerous conservatives. Radio host Mark Levin on Monday tore into O’Reilly for “hawking a book that trashes the greatest president certainly in modern history.”
BUZZING: Today in the Hive
From a TPM Prime member: “Sheesh, I don’t know what the heck has been going on with MSNBC, but I don’t see how it can survive, the way things have been going. And it’s important to me as a progressive that the station makes it. The alternatives are too awful to consider, especially the sugary goo on the broadcast channels, so I find myself not watching tv 95% of the time, unless I want to catch the weather forecast or the Baby Channel. It’s getting pretty bad when the Baby Channel is more interesting than MSNBC. My main complaint is and has been with Morning Joe. I can’t stomach that show. Do they have enough viewers to keep it going? Two agonizingly long hours, no less. Andrea Mitchell at noon is a relief. What are they going to do if she retires?”
