Bill O'Reilly Announces New Book, Slams Culture

Former Fox News personality Bill O'Reilly has lost his nightly show, but he's as busy as ever with his million-selling book career and determined to find new fans online.
In announcing his next book in the best-selling "Killing" historical series on Tuesday, O'Reilly reiterated his denial of the allegations of sexual harassment that led to his April ouster, blaming them on false, ideological attacks and a vicious culture in which there are "no rules."
"Allegations are not facts. Nobody's searching for the truth anymore," O'Reilly, who was fired in April amid allegations of sexual harassment that he has denied, told The Associated Press in one of his first interviews since his dismissal.
"Killing England: The Brutal Struggle for American Independence," which focuses on the Revolutionary War era, will be published Sept. 19, Henry Holt and Co. told the AP. The book will be co-written by O'Reilly's longtime collaborator, Martin Dugard.
O'Reilly, for years Fox News' most popular and most lucrative anchor, said he wasn't worried that sales would fall off without having his show to promote his books.
He said he was "forming alliances" with internet organizations, although he said no decisions had been made and did not cite any specific companies.
"I'm not an internet person, but I realize that's the market of the future," he said, adding that if people didn't like his books they wouldn't have succeeded, no matter where and how much he talked about them.
Multiple advertisers withdrew from O'Reilly's show before he left, and a similar pattern has developed for Fox host Sean Hannity, who has been strongly criticized for promoting a discredited story involving a murdered Democratic National Committee employee. O'Reilly thinks Hannity will stay on with Fox.
"It's the same thing, the far left going after him, trying to get him off the air," O'Reilly said. "I think Hannity will survive because I don't know if Fox can handle another shake-up like that."
