 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The O'Reilly Factor was a political news and talk show which served as the flagship program of Fox News, and whose host Bill O'Reilly was the face of that network, from 1996 to 2017. It consistently topped the ratings as the most watched cable news show, and its popularity meant it was one of the most parodied as well. Its original title was The O'Reilly Report, which should sound familiar.O'Reilly has also written several books, some of them tie-ins to the show, some of them not. There used to be a radio show called The Radio Factor, but that died in early 2009.On April 19, 2017, Fox News officially announced that O'Reilly's employment was terminated amid numerous sexual harassment allegations, and the show aired its last episode on April 21. His slot at Fox News Channel was taken over by Tucker Carlson Tonight.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

 Adam Westing: O'Reilly and his show appear in Iron Man 2, parodying two of his show's segments at once. He also appears in Transformers: Dark of the Moon, interviewing former Sector Seven agent Simmons. The interview quickly devolves into an argument between the two over whether or not the US should continue supporting the Autobots. On an episode of Rizzoli & Isles, O'Reilly yet again appears as himself. Many of his usual segments are mentioned, as Rizzoli's mother is a big fan of the show. Also, for some reason, he's covering the trial of a Boston gangster, which is a fairly large departure from his usual political analysis (although he does cover non-political subjects on his show from time to time).

 Almighty Janitor: While O'Reilly doesn't really hold any special positions in terms of executive power within Fox News' building, the man's popularity combined with being a veteran reporter and, essentially, an "Elder Statesman" of the channel makes him second to Roger Ailes in terms of power... or at least until O'Reilly was fired in April 2017.
