FNC's Bill O'Reilly Hangs-Up During ESPN Interview

Bill O'Reilly
Fox News Channel host Bill O’Reilly has built his media empire on his blunt, short-tempered approach to interview guests who won’t give him straight answers to his questions, but during a telephone interview on ESPN Radio Monday, the Fox News host appeared to show that the shoe does not fit comfortably on the other foot.

According to inquisitar.com, O’Reilly became indignant and hung up the phone when ESPN Radio host Dan Le Batard asked him questions about O’Reilly’s longtime nemesis Keith Olbermann, and then asked him to name the greatest shame of his career.

O’Reilly, the longtime host of the Fox News flagship talk show, The O’Reilly Factor, was interviewed by Le Batard as part of O’Reilly’s promotional efforts for his latest book Killing Patton, which presents O’Reilly’s personal theories regarding the death of legendary World War II General George S, Patton in a 1945 auto accident.

While most of the interview went according to plan, with Le Batard and O’Reilly exchanging lighthearted banter about the book and about the high points of the 65-year-old Bill O’Reilly’s career, the ESPN interview veered down an unwelcome.
