Why Dave Navarro's Favorite Newsman Is Bill O'Reilly

Dave Navarro's Surprising Pick For His Favorite Newsman

Dave Navarro -- former Jane's Addiction guitarist and host of the wildly popular Spike show "Ink Master" -- has a surprising choice for his favorite news anchor and an equally surprising reasoning for his selection.

"Ironically, believe it or not, the newsman of my choice — I'll get shit for this — is Bill O'Reilly," Navarro told host Ricky Camilleri. "Because I already know what I believe. So I like to go to an outlet that is contrary to what my instincts are. He doesn't necessarily convince me of anything different, but I at least get a broader, more well-rounded viewpoint."

Aside from getting a peek at an opposing worldview, Navarro has a soft spot for O'Reilly's hotheaded debates.

"Frankly, it's just a lot of fun to watch him get mad," Navarro said with a laugh.
