Actually, Mr. O'Reilly may be thinking of retiring in a year or two. He's about that age, he's done rather well in life, and he's been strapped on the hotseat of tv for a long time now. That job is an 80-hour a week venture. He's spoken often and fondly of his father in the past and has traditional values. After 60, all that work loses its glamor, such that one would think he's trying to talk himself into it. It's just that his buds, many of whom are washington insiders, egg him on to do another season until.... fill in the blank because he's the best in the business right now.
IMHO of two cents.
He's not the type to retire.
