O'Reilly Considering Retirement

It looks like spewing all that viciousness and hatred is taking its toll on Bill O’Reilly, who finds his battles “tremendously wearing and debilitating.” Newsday reports he is even considering retirement. “That depends on how I feel physically. Like an athlete, the body breaks down after a while. There’s only so much aggression you can absorb [but] right now, I have no other vocational aspirations.”

Perhaps O’Reilly finds this so wearing because he fails to understand how he creates so much of the problem. O’Reilly claims, “We’re a defensive player except on the kids’ stuff [and] then we’re on the offense.” In reviewing his frequent attacks on the mainstream media, Newsday finds O’Reilly’s assessment “debatable if not delusional.”

It sounds to me like retirement is a good idea. I wish O’Reilly a long and healthy retirement–and it cannot start soon enough.
