The No Spin Zone
A Brief summary of "The No Spin Zone" Bill O'Reilly has once again has taken on some of Americas most powerful people in his latest literary achievement titled "The No Spin Zone". In this attempt to unmask the almighty public opinion, O'Reilly takes on topics such as capital punishment, sex education in public schools, and the often offensive, lyrics found in today's rap music. Defend these topics are the "opponents" which O'Reilly bombards with questions, and in some cases these questions could be considered incriminating. But this prime piece of media does not always feature Bill facing off with the person in which he is discussing. For instance, O'Reilly speaks' strongly about Hillary Clinton, and her spending while residing at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, nor is she present during the chapter dedicated to her questionable campaign finance. But to really get the gist of this book, one needs to be familiar with the term spin. Which in the case of this book, it is a term used in reference to people that disfigure facts so that the situation at hand appears to be in their favor. O'Reilly advocates facts that are brought out to the public, should be done so spin free.
O'Reilly, of course, feels that if the family is in need of a second income, then it would be beneficial for both parents to work, rather than to live their lives in financial disarray. But President Bush differs in opinions with O'Reilly. He was often guilty of giving his guest the boot, but he always did this in the politest way possible. The two men raped and killed the boy, then dumped the body in a river in Maine. The subject of his segment is "Violence and sleaze in our living rooms". (Chapter 4) While skipping a few chapters: The book continues on landing on the subject titled "The Legacy of Bill Clinton", with the advocate James Carville, the former campaign manager for President Bill Clinton. The next visitor to the "zone" was the comedian and activist, Steve Allen. (Chapter 10) Then without hesitation, the "zone" takes us to the Arizona Senator John McCain, who answers Bill's questions about Americas drug problem, and why the Senator has not done more to stop the trafficking that crosses his states borders with Mexico. Also they seem to feel that the solution is to not remove it from society, but to remove parts of society from it. For those who are not familiar with the organization, NAMBLA (North American Man Boy Love Association) is an organization that promotes sexual relations between men and boys as young as eight. But O'Reilly takes the opposition on the grounds that teaching sex could very well support sex. Bob feels that kids are the same today as they were fifty years ago because, "I think kids are kids. They both seem to agree on the fact that it is not so much the violence or vulgar language, admitting the fact that these two pieces of entertainment are almost unavoidable, but how its romanticized that is corrupting our next generation. O'Reilly did not always give his adversaries a fare chance to speak their piece.
