Dear Bill O'Reilly,

I am a former fan of your program, and have become increasingly concerned with your conduct (or lack thereof) during your interviews. Knowing your brutish temperament (and I think I do), it is very likely that you will not make it to the end of this letter. However, I think it is of dire consequence that you do, so that you may pinpoint the cause of your dwindling audience.

Mr. O'Reilly, I don't understand why you invite people to your show, and then point your finger at them until they sink back into their seats and why you yell until you're blue in the face--don't you get tired of pointing all the time? And then sometimes you even have the nerve to tell people to shut up!

I always thought the purpose of holding a discussion is that two opposing views can be presented. You are under the impression that your opinion and ideology (although you claim not to have one) must supercede everyone else's. When I watch your show, I am not able to hear anyone else's argument over your beastly bellowing, let alone allow myself to be swayed by it. You have a penchant for putting blinders on your audience. I need a world outside of you, Bill.

Bill, sometimes I feel like my head is being shoved up your ass. And with yours up there, too, it's getting awfully crowded. I really wish you would just take a breathe once in a while and let someone else speak. And perhaps reevaluate your position as a "traditionalist." I think you should know that change will come whether you want it to or not--whether it moves you through the years kicking and screaming.
