Conservative radio hosts Bill O’Reilly and Mark Levin are both currently promoting new books, but the former Fox News host alleges you wouldn’t know that if you watched television news.
During an appearance on The Sean Hannity Show to promote his new Killing the Witches: The Horrors of Salem, Massachusetts book, O’Reilly said neither he nor Levin were welcomed on any television news programs to promote their new offerings.
“Here’s something your audience may not know…Mark Levin has a big best-selling book out. It’s selling thousands of copies. He can’t get on any network to sell it. Ever. Neither can I,” O’Reilly revealed. “And when I did do the networks for my previous Killing books, I brought big ratings. All of them. Today Show, Good Morning America, and the late-night people.
“So I had my staff do a trace. There has not been one independent or conservative author on any of the network shows, including Sunday mornings, which does a big thing every Sunday,” Bill O’Reilly continued. “None. Zero. Complete concrete wall. It’s amazing.”
Levin’s book — entitled The Democrat Party Hates America — encountered controversy before it was released. Mark Levin alleged Target had refused to sell the book in its physical locations, sticking to only offering it on its online platforms. However, Target has denied that claim, and eventually offered Levin’s book in its brick-and-mortar locations.
