WATCH: Palin Blasts O’Reilly for Calling Potential 2016 Candidacy ‘Reality Show’ By Monica Sanchez | 12 hours ago


Last night on the Factor, Bill O’Reilly briefly examined the impending 2016 presidential election, unabashedly suggesting that potential candidates Sarah Palin, Donald Trump, and Chris Christie would turn the race into a “reality show.”
Palin appeared on Fox News’ The Sean Hannity Show just hours later to talk about her appearance at the Iowa Freedom Summit over the weekend as well as her 2016 ambitions.
The former Alaska governor touched upon the media’s role in the upcoming election and how, if Republicans hope to win against heavyweight Democratic party candidates like Hillary Clinton, conservatives in the media and the like need to unite and support one another.
“It’s going to take more than a village to beat Hillary,” Palin said. “There needs to be unity, understanding... Conservatives have that strike against us right off the bat.”
“Even there on FOX, you know, a kind of a quasi- or assumed conservative outlet. All day we have listened in to the tease of Bill O’Reilly’s. He’s talking about […] all these GOP contenders thinking about running for president like Donald Trump, Sarah Palin, and he names them off. He says, ‘Oh, what a reality show that would be, yuck yuck.’”
She then blasted O’Reilly for not taking her possible candidacy seriously.
“Well the left doesn’t do that, okay? They take this serious because this is war."

Palin continued, "And hopefully the media, even the quasi-right side of the media, won’t be looking at this as some kind of reality show—a joke.”
