Ann Coulter is the polar opposite of her on screen persona. Sweet and polite. Meanwhile, she's a horrible C-word whenever she goes on air.

O'Reilly can be surprisingly reserved when he's not on the air. Almost shy, believe it or not. It's utterly impossible to make conversation with him. But the anger level is the same, sadly.

He's been there. Every time he comes to be on The Factor, people start lining the halls outside the green room starting 30 minutes before he's scheduled to show up, like they're waiting for Jesus to enter Jerusalem, waving palm fronds.

People at Fox LOVE Jon Stewart, probably because he rips on us so hard. There's an element of self-loathing there.

Some do, some don't. O'Reilly's spiel is genuine. Glenn Beck really is that insane.

Sean Hannity, meanwhile, will say anything and everything he thinks will help the GOP, regardless of whether or not he believes it.

Sometimes pundits will make arguments they don't believe just to get on the air. I called a woman once to ask her to be on the show. I said "We have a guest right now who is taking position X. We're looking for someone who believes Y." She said "Well, I actually agree with position X. But I can come on and pretend to believe Y just to make the argument."

I'm probably the wrong person to pass judgement on anyone else's journalistic integrity.

Yeah, I don't think Fox acted unreasonably. Rather I acted stupidly, and paid the price.
