In Friday’s Rocky Mountain News, Dusty Saunders writes about an amusing situation about to take place in the city of Denver next week. As it turns out, FOX News talk show host Bill O’Reilly’s television show will be up against his radio show - “The Radio Factor” - which Clear Channel-owned KHOW is going to be running on an eight hour delay. Saunders’ item is obviously focused on the news of the various movements going on at that particular station, but I’ve got to say that if this doesn’t spell disaster for the “hardcore” fans of Bill O’Reilly then I’m not sure what does.
I know that the talk radio listener isn’t necessarily the same as the person who would watch O’Reilly - whose television show probably catches a lot of casual fans or those who dislike him, too - but isn’t it kind of a programming oddity to do something like this?
