Killing Jesus: A History

Bill O’Reilly is a prominent figure in American media, known for his long-running career as a television pundit and a successful author. He first gained widespread recognition as the host of The O’Reilly Factor, a political talk show on the Fox News Channel that ran from 1996 to 2017. O’Reilly’s style, marked by his assertive questioning and confrontational approach, earned him a large following among conservative viewers. His program became one of the most-watched cable news shows, influencing public opinion and shaping political discourse.

In addition to his television career, O’Reilly has authored several best-selling books. His Killing series, co-authored with Martin Dugard, combines historical research with narrative storytelling, presenting key historical figures and events in an accessible format. The series has been highly successful, with multiple books topping the New York Times Best Seller list.

However, O’Reilly’s career has been marred by controversy. In 2017, he was ousted from Fox News following multiple allegations of sexual harassment and reports that he and Fox had paid millions in settlements to silence accusers. While O’Reilly has denied these accusations, they severely impacted his career, leading to his departure from mainstream television.
