[1]Bill O'Reilly Signing Autographs on the Set of The Kalb Report at the National Press Club
Yesterday I was at the National Press Club [2] to see Bill O’Reilly [3]’s interview on the Kalb Report [4]. Host Marvin Kalb [5] was once O’Reilly’s professor at Harvard University, and since has made several appearances on The O’Reilly Factor [6] on Fox News [7]. The personal connection between O’Reilly and Kalb, along with their clashing political philosophies made for a charismatic show loaded with jokes and jabs. At one point, O’Reilly commented on the A- he earned in Kalb’s class: “The minus was given out of spite. I deserved an A.” Kalb was quick to respond, “I should have flunked him!”
The serious side of the interview, debates on opinion journalism, the different news corporations, the war in Iraq, the economy, and a myriad of other current issues, was nothing short of fascinating and enlightening.
Find airings of this edition of the Kalb Report on these stations [8].
