Bill O'Reilly is an old fool. I came accross this article today:
Bill O'Reilly rips Mother Jones again: 'Bottom rung of journalism'

Now I don't know much about Mother Jones, other than it is a liberal rag. But in this article I saw this quote:
"Mother Jones, which has low circulation, [is] considered by many the bottom rung of journalism in America," O'Reilly said in his opening monologue, called the "Talking Points Memo."


So I thought it would be interesting to see if he knows what he is talking about. I did a quick search on Alexa and found this:
motherjones.com
Rank in the United states = 808

billoreilly.com
Rank in the United states = 14,088

Now Mother Jones may not be up there with MSM brands like FOX or MSNBC, but they certainly pull in more traffic than Bill does.

The fact that Bill is talking in terms of circulation just goes to show that he still thinks in outdated terms of print media. Talking Point Memo to Bill, only retired people buy newspapers and magazines. The rest of the world has figured out that we can gets news faster and for free on the internet.
