BillOReilly.com has announced that to mark the launch of the downloadable MP3 version of the Radio Factor, the site is giving away a 20GB Apple iPod (retail value $299).
Bill O’Reilly is best known as host of “The O’Reilly Factor,” seen weeknights on the Fox News Channel, which continues to dominate the television cable news ratings, consistently ranking as the highest rated cable news show for more than two years. It is also carried in dozens of foreign countries, according to BillOReilly.com.
The winner will be selected on Friday, March 11.
Rules and entry form here.
Funny. O’Reilly’s announcing a new feature for his RADIO show, and he’s giving away a device that doesn’t pick up radio signals. Cute.
I guess it’s a good way to drive people to his site, though. But how come just ONE? Cheap-o.
Man, the iPod is really, truly everywhere in society if O’Reilly’s giving one away.
Hmm.. I wonder if they come pre equipped with Ann Coulter audio tapes and other liberal bashing content?
And we are supposed to be excited to have the Fox network in our iPods?
worse. it will be preloaded with ann coulter’s bathroom recordings of Tammy wynette classics.
Liberal Bashing!? Man,,,
I’d rather they gave away an iPod photo with pix of Ann Coulter naked! Yummy!
howard stern has been giving ipod shuffles away all week, maybe longer.
I don’t care about the politics – if he’s giving it away for free, who cares? What can he do? Is he gonna make someone sign a “I’m a conservative” registration card to get it?
This should be called the Mac Retard Network.
The posters here are absolutely the dumbest on the planet any more…
Drool Tunes: You’re a dumbass. Downloadable MP3 format – do you get it, imbecile?
Mac User Who Can’t Stand Stupid Mac Users, I know your real identity, you are NMFY aren’t you?
Kind of funny…
Some of the best and most conservative radio talk hosts on the planet are Apple enthusiasts, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Bill O’Reilly, yet Apple is one of the most liberal companies in the world. If Steve Jobs would get his liberal head out of his tail and advertise on these shows, he’d see his share of the PC market SKYROCKET!!! Rush is a BIG MacHead and always praises Apple even though he doesn’t agree with their political stance. Goes to show a conservative will call a good thing a good thing no matter who it comes from where a lib will bash anything without evaluating it.
doPi O’Reilly’s godawful radio show (I like talk radio and O’Reilly’s radio show sucks) is a Westwood One (CBS/Viacom) product not a Fox product.
MDN Magic Word: “There” as in I wish O-Reilly wasn’t there on WJFK-FM between the Junkies and Don & Mike causing Stern to get cut-off at 10am.
Carl Carlson —
Howard Stern is also sponsoring “Napster on The Go”..
Stern is a Nerd.
Liberals are stupid idiots and they are all dumb.
Conservatives are dumb idiots and they are all stupid.
Thanks for clearing that up for us, Conservative & Liberal. Very helpful.

Actually, they’re promising an iPod, but you actually get a Creative Rio. It’s kind of like saying they’re “Fair and Balanced”, but…
Well, you know…
oh please oh please will you let me win
20 gigabytes of lies & spin?
Mac User Who Can’t Stand Stupid Mac Users:
No, moron. I KNOW they’re downloadable mp3’s. But his show is still called the R-A-D-I-O F-A-C-T-O-R, dipshit! The irony was in the fact that the iPod can’t natively receive the very medium he uses. Dork. Get a frickin’ clue instead of trolling Mac forums, you PC-using sad-ass.

Drool Tunes:
I KNOW more about MACS and HAVE more MACS than you – LOSER.
Your comment is the dumbest thing here – and you are the dumbest poster here.
Half of the PodCasts are named after the RADIO show they let you download – so effin’ what?
You’re a rod sucker.
ROFLMAO.
Glaken – Conservatives who follow Rush and others are certainly aware of their Apple leanings already. If that’s not enough to make these listeners switch, how effective do you think radio spots would be?

An Organization of Hope
Bill O’Reilly is aweswome!!!!! Great for hm for giving away an ipod. You liberal, commie, cry babies are truly pathetic!
Mac User Who Can’t Stand Stupid Mac Users:
Uh, I think he KNOWS that, Mac User Who’s Too Young To Drive. He’s just making a point about the fact that it’s a radio show and . . .
Oh, never mind. It’s called “irony”. Go get mommy’s dictionary out and look it up, you non-Mac using twerp.
I want the downloadable MP3 file of the SwiftVets ending Dumbass Kerry’s bid for the Presidency!
Johnny Appleseed thinks naked pix of Ann Coulter would be great but I know once she speaks with her “manvoice” he’ll be totally creeped out. I think Billy Boy should toss in a free falafel to every contest entrant, what a loser.
Mac user = intelligent, enlightened, artistic, one of the beautiful people.
PC user = Repuglican
You know it’s true.
Sorry “Drool Tunes” your statement was plain stupid.
Many Podcasts are “radio” programs – are you a tart or what?
Nothing ironic or otherwise pertinent to your “point”
SB
I NEVER read the comments after an article that mention liberal hate lightening rods like Bill O’.
Waaay too predictable.
He is giving away one whole iPod!?!?!?
How cheap can you get!
Hey MDN, in case you want to write about it, the city of Bellflower in California, gave away an iPod shuffle during their State of the City address last week.
To “Mac User Who Knows O’Reilly’s A Shill”
I happen to lean more to the left than the right but I will say one thing……….
FSCK YOU
Same goes for the rest of you dipshits that down O’Reilly.
People that lean THAT far to the left – just a bunch of total pussies. You and your wimpy attitudes are the cause for the majority of the problems the world faces today.
I once heard O’Reilly call Steve Jobs “a sissy Hollywood liberal tree-hugging jerk” and said he should be arrested as an enemy of the state for his views and sent off to one of our torture-friendly “allies” to be taught a lesson. (This was for giving money to the Democratic party and being friends with Bill Clinton.)
To Liberals=All that is bad in this world.
You guys are all the same, you say you lean left, then let the cat out of the bag with the balance of your response, soooo transparent you miss yourselves when you look in the mirror.
It’s always the same invectives, pussies, wimps, etc. hey what happened to fag and commie. The FUCK YOU was the give away however, typical response from a right wing hack with minimal language skills.
Like Michael Savage says:
“Go on, sit back with your hat on backwards while Liberals take over this country with illegal aliens, with lies, with perversion.”
“Liberalism is a mental disorder.”
And mine: “Liberals should be barred from Macs and Mac forums, and be forced to only use that which is also their favorite acronym: PC.”
It’s great the way the internet allows an easy to access and open forum for the free exchange of thought between intelligent and open minded people. Now if only I could find where that is happening…
SB —
Wow. Brilliant contribution to the obvious.
I’ll get you the special dictionary.
Oh’Really is the missing link; a troglodye really. I’m not surprised that he has a loyal group of fans — proof that evolution is still happening for some.
Good Lord, this is ridiculous. I’d like to inject some clarity here.
— YES, I’m a proud liberal.
— NO, I don’t mind if you aren’t… that’s your prerogative.
— YES I love my Macintoshes, and I thought that’s what we were all here to talk about.
— YES I’d gladly take Mr O’Reilly’s iPod off his hands.
— NO, I don’t visit MDN to see stupid political mudslinging matches, and I don’t think anyone else does either.
— YES, I’m well familiar that one-liner political screaming matches are bait for fools, and I’m sad to see that so many MDN readers have taken it.
For God’s sake, Mac users are enough of a minority already — do we really have to resort to yelling at each other in the middle of a pro-Mac website?
It’s just really dumb.
For the record, I love talking politics (logically and reasonably), but this is neither the time nor the place. Now, can we all agree to go register to win that freePod?
Magic words here are “bridge” and “over,” as in “Build a damn bridge and get over yourselves.”
Best,
adam
I’m with Adam on this one. I can’t stand seeing political commentary in this forum, from the left or the right. For pete’s sake, just drop it. If you want to bloviate, go someplace else.
Apple doesn’t advertise on Rush or O’Reilly because sometimes you must stand for what is right regardless of any financial benefit.
About 8 years ago, Apple was planning on building a major Mac manufacturing site near a small Texas town; a huge boon for their employment and economy. But, the town objected to Apple because Apple’s health insurance covers same-sex couples. Rather than adjusting their health insurance, Apple left town and built outside of Texas at a much greater cost.
As you have seen in the past 4 years, it is impossible for the USA to endure the policies and ideologies of a Republican administration. They rape the country financially and try to justify it on war spending. Yelling “We’re the REAL patriots” does not cure the tremendous financial and social ills they inflict upon the nation.
A society is judged by how it treats the weakest of its citizens. When have the Republicans ever cared for anyone other than big business?
When was being “liberal” and generous a bad thing?
Do you really think that Jesus would have supported Republicans?
You know what scares me? The major division that has occured in this country since the last election.
Just remember folks…”United we stand, divided we fall”.
If we keep being so polarized, THAT could end up bringing down this country faster than some fanatic Muslim.
JohnnyAppleseed,
Ann Coulter’s not a woman, she’s a man, baby!
Corresponding Fake News Story
Ann Coulter’s actually a talking lump of shit. Anyone who finds her attractive is way too into scat.
Plus, if given the chance, she’d hump Reagan’s corpse.
We know, your idea of HOT is Billary…
LMAO.
You keep trying to convince people that conservatives are Nazis or whatever. The moral decline of American society will cost us all.
Freedom doesn’t mean “no rules”
Compassion doesn’t mean “lazy asses that feed off of my hard work and tax dollars” to watch Oprah while I work and they send their kids to public day care while they score crack.
“We know, your idea of HOT is Billary…”
No you don’t.
Gentlemen/ladies,
Look at what your computer is doing to you! A wonderful Mac page drenched, nay, stained with bitter hatred. (I can understand if that emotion came off of an IBM keyboard.)
But aren’t we doing our Mac keyboards an injustice by typing out the wrong combination of letters and/or numbers. Or even a few mixed-in symbols?
I mean, love your neighbor, man. That lesson survived, er, came from the 60s?
And let’s face it, O’Reilly is no conservative. He worships the ratings point and would start spouting from the book Marx if it would up his numbers.
He’s not worth expending any energy over, nor any attention other than to notice how badly you’re being manipulated. It’s just like on his show when you have seen no news on the Lacy Peterson trial on his show night after night. Why? Because he notes, it ups his ratings.
For a couple hundred dollars, he bought himself hundreds of thousands in free publicity, courtesy of the over-sensitive Mac owner that will carry his contest in discussions all over the web.
Remember, good publicity or bad publicity is still publicity.
