Bill O’Reilly’s one-hour show, which has aired locally for more than a year on Red Apple Media talk WABC, is heading to the syndication level via Key Networks. “No Spin News” will be available in May to stations of all formats and market sizes for weeknight clearance.
“Key Networks has had the pleasure of bringing Bill O’Reilly’s one-of-a-kind analysis to over 250 radio stations around the country through The O’Reilly Update, The O’Reilly Update – Morning Edition, and The O’Reilly Update – Weekend Edition,” Key Networks COO Dennis Green said in a release.
“Stations have asked for more O’Reilly content, and we are delivering. We are delighted to offer his ‘No Spin News’ program to radio stations every weeknight to get the latest news and information you won’t get anywhere else.”
The program has aired on WABC from 9-10 pm on weeknights as “Common Sense with Bill O’Reilly.” Debuting in September 2020, the show initially ran from 10-11 pm.
Furthermore, Key Networks already syndicates three versions of “The O’Reilly Update,” which are collectively listened to on 250 radio stations coast-to-coast.
“The incredible success of our nightly news analysis hour on WABC took me by surprise,” O’Reilly added. “I knew the product was strong, but the ratings are overwhelming. The folks caught up with us on the radio very quickly.”
