Rudy On The Radio? Giuliani "Negotiating" To Replace O'Reilly

Rudy Giuliani may be coming to the airwaves — as Bill O'Reilly's radio replacement.

While Fox News Talk is replacing O'Reilly with John Gibson, Page Six reports that O'Reilly's syndicator, Westwood One, has its eyes on the former New York Mayor and Republican presidential candidate for the slot:

EVERYONE knows Bill O'Reilly is quitting his radio show to concentrate on his Fox News TV program. Now, Page Six has learned the leading candidate to succeed him is Rudy Giuliani. Westwood One, which syndicates the O'Reilly show, is negotiating with the former mayor....Some wonder if Rudy could sit for three hours a day chitchatting about politics. The other question is how it might affect his possible gubernatorial run in 2010. Giuliani's office did not return calls.

O'Really has a TV news programme? Oh really? I guess it's news for people who watch Smackdown for the wrestling.

Good. Maybe when he joins the ranks of the much hated O'Reilly and Rush, we can get back to being honest about Rudy. 9/11 really made everyone forget about his unwaivering support for sodomizing police officers, his opposition to art decorated with dung, and his mistress. It's hard to remember how unpopular he was becoming before the terror attacks.

Glib to replace rant. How refreshing.

I wonder if he will be taking fake, I mean sincere, surprise phonecalls from his loving, adoring wife while on air.

[BartLA]

How is he going to talk about 9/11 every day?

Going from an IQ of 6 to an IQ of 3.......in drag!!!!

Westwood One - A wholly owned subsidiary of the Robocall Network.

Oh say it ain't so, who wants to hear from that buck-toothed rat!

When it's good, it's bad....when it's bad, it's worse....like picking the lesser of two evils....eeeeesh!

Rudy certainly has the qualifications to be on right-wing talk radio that he did not have before, he now blames Bill Clinton for 9-11 that he did not do before, and he has nothing but contempt for the Democrats that he did not have before, all he has is a noun, a verb, and 9-11 for talk-radio as he has had many times before. Maybe Mitt Romney a now ex-moderate can join him when he is dumped by the primaries again in 2012 as had happened before.

Really? That's what Giulliani has sunk to? He's going to be another hot air generator on a dying medium?

Sad, sad.....

This is better than Orielly. Callers have so much dirt to drag up like spurned wives and drag parades!

[iyamchazz]

Perfect!!
Slime out... Slime in.

9/11-24/7!

How very disappointing. Rudy had qualities I admired, and he, in some ways represented the "old school" republicans, that just wanted to get government off your back. By joining the right wing radio hate fest, he has shown me his true colors.
