Bill O'Reilly set to make first appearance on CNN

Source: CNN



Throughout his reign as the undisputed king of cable news, Bill O'Reilly was synonymous with the Fox News Channel. But next month, O'Reilly is set to make an unprecedented visit to one of Fox's rivals when he sits down for an interview with CNN's Michael Smerconish.

The interview will mark O'Reilly's first appearance on CNN, providing another reminder of just how much has changed for him. This time a year ago -- or even five months ago -- it might have been unthinkable to imagine O'Reilly on a cable news channel other than Fox.

But at the end of an appearance Smerconish made on O'Reilly's online talk show Wednesday, O'Reilly told Smerconish that he would appear on Smerconish's CNN program.

It is unclear when exactly O'Reilly would go on Smerconish's program, which CNN airs on Saturday mornings.

A great time to sleep in, clean the fridge, get that root canal or other wise just not watch CNN.

At a time when Sinclair is gobbling up local news, and alt-right outlets are ramping up, independent television news is crucial to our democracy. CNN is just dumber than a bag of hammers.

Spicer, Priebus, Scaramucci, O'Reilly, Lord (and maybe Sessions soon). If Colbert could get the Mooch then maybe he can get the rest of the gang.
