Bill O is running his own show to make money, pure and simple-—note that he is selling more and more stuff all the time (as well as writing or co-writing books to sell)-—he wants to stay in the middle of the road on many issues and look tough-— his staff (who work for Fox) are mostly set-ups to entertain the listener-—he has changed over the years to fit the times , not to take any strong stand for anything (except maybe kids problems in general and he gives profits (so he says) to vet causes)-—I watch most times for the entertainment value since there is little on other TV except for a few decent movies-—
