i didn't ain't getting money i was a catholic school didn't pay us anything but it was enough you know going to the movies go on a few dates and then no no lobster the lobster
we had you know arby's so then i went back to school and got a master's degree in broadcast journalism from boston u i paid all the freight there and wipe me out
i had some meagre savings of teaching and i was still painting houses be used to issues roof

resting in peace but i got this grand and pay me a hundred fifty bucks a week as is in nineteen seventy five seventy
ah
and i said to the guy tommy schober and the general manager great guy channel sixteen in scranton hey i can't live i can't get an apartment because they want me to put a deposit on one hundred and fifty weaker i'm not going to believe so he gave me another twenty five bucks for writing the gag lines for one
ted school school saturday night fright fest hysterical so when one seventy five or we could barely made it then i got a job in two thousand and arrests history but i work my butt off in scranton in dallas in denver and hard for back to new york city where i
really busted it as successful and i was successful because of hard work labour i had some skills i was born with it god gave it to me as a gift is a gift and i'd about the boy i work hard never time when i did i know
rejected ever and when people don't work hard now in my presence i don't look highly on it my staff works real hard okay and almost around the clock you know we get an idea with boom boom boom boom boom
so then i made a success of my tv career i worked for a b c a national news peter jennings cbs for a brief time with dan rather didn't really like that very much apc was much better than i went to inside edition were i
was the anchor after david frost got fired and started to make pretty good money then i turned the show into a success still on air and then i went back to school to harvard and i had to pay them all kinds of money up there and cambridge got another master's in public administration and i designed the o'reilly factor up there came down and back to new york technology twenty four seven news hired
the rest is history top always work hard now when i left fox news i've got mad i don't cut back a little bit you know i got the website very
as for i run it nobody told me what to do here in all its hard work but it's not back breaking work it's war you know this kind of work
and then other stuff started romanian on the bed
selling nonfiction author in history in american history nobody you saw more nonfiction books than may we have seventeen million copies imprint killing series through the roof but the hardest labour for me ever was the united states have trouble how the president really sees america that was the most laborious project i have ever undertake and i'll be out in three weeks three weeks from tomorrow and why it was so difficult was i didn't have a co author morton do more to help me out on research but i rode every word i write the killing books we in conjunction with marty so it's it's apart
your ship but here every word is mine but that's not what the real hard part of it was all the researchers gettin from marty and everybody else was bogus it it was true
and i say that the introduction of the book so so different when i'm looking at it and i'm going i've known this guy for thirty years doesn't ring true to me i had to report the book as well as write
how'd it go to everybody no anonymous sources so
i get them on a record and a lot of people didn't want to go on a record so i didn't use them but i got enough people close to president trump that i think you'll see that you'll get information from this book you'd met her before but it was really a bear to write it it really was hard hard work and at times gone okay i gotta do the website we get a growing radio phenomenon called the o'reilly update we're approaching two hundred affiliates in less than six months unheard of the thing is just exploding and or sooner beyond new york city we just signed a deal with boston i mean it's san diego's got at charlotte's god as baltimore's goddess atlanta's goddess everybody's guys so next year as can be what for foreigners stations
a good it's good but again i got a good staff it's it's not hard work it's this work but this trump book was hard work and i'm saying to myself when i was writing it i'd be you know in between the bad words because i had a change from an event this isn't true that's not true the person isn't telling
shhh exaggerating whatever it may be ok i'm sorry myself is it worth it is worth it i got two more killing books ones already
do i really need this trap book and
financially i didn't needed but are we i am so appalled at what is happening in this country i am so angry with all you know fake news ok it's just untrue most of the stuff surrounding donald trump interestingly enough sir
but the stuff that people praise him for isn't true sought all the negative stop some as other people like people magazine for example said good about a matter it's going so i did it and i really worked hard on it and delivered on time very important for an offer the editing process was a much because we we added a pretty severely
shelves that's always what we do so that the public should not do a lot of work and i'm very very proud of the book now i'm gonna get killed you're going
ear smears o'reilly this o'reilly that we're prepared for it i've got my attorneys lined up the publishers going to help out all of that but we know because the trump book doesn't slaughter the president that the trump haters are going to try to discredit the book and me now they've been successful before i don't think they're going to be successful is to win a fight back but i hope that doesn't happen i hope it doesn't happen i'm not relishing that alright i don't want that confrontation what i want is honest americans buy the book read the book and then tell me what you think if you have any questions at all atlanta ceremony
we're going to do some idiot ah we're not going to do the dishonest media not going to do it but i'll be around you'll see me on the o'reilly update on the radio will be doing a bunch of stuff we're going to do four shows are we gonna do phoenix we're going to do boston we're going to do long island and we're going to palm springs california those shows are successful shows are called understanding trump
successful do more arms we're gonna get the word out it be interesting to see how many people really want the truth
about donald trump who he is and how he did it we did it because it's a stair step
once you start the ride you're not gonna wanna get off at the few people have read a book
advance all of them say couldn't put it down stayed up all night and a lot of the killing books like the i gave it to some people who despise donald trump i gave the book just a few didn't
didn't like the book it's not that they didn't like the storyline of the writing array but it just didn't like because i don't like him and because it doesn't go into trying to hurt him
now they told me that varying ways was amusing to hear it i was
is happy they read the book i don't that matter to me alright am i but i did an experiment i gave it some people love trump and i gave it to some people who despised
not many one guy loves trump said oh you really want to go that deeply into his father and i said yeah fred trump was the biggest influence on donald trump by far nobody even comes close and fred trump story
fascinating and how he and donald trump interacted is an amazing piece of history i don't think i've ever covered a president whose father maybe with the exception of john f kennedy whose father shaped him the way that fred trump shaped donald trump when you read it you're going to go whoa if you care unfortunately a lot of people don't care about the truth about their country about anything and i can't
help them i'm not here for them on here for you people who care right so i want you to read the usa to trumpet i want you to be tough on me if you see something you don't understand or you don't like it
you're not gonna be able to say essays wrong not to be able to do that everything in a book is rock solid and an i insisted that the publisher pay three three different
proof readers in fact checkers all of whom have different views of light
and they didn't interact they don't know each other because i don't want anything in this book to such
and it was interesting zita reactions the far left guy that we hired
and i wanted to hire far left guy huh
back with no criticisms about the facts at all not but he came back with those ideology
and i'm gonna know ideology and a book
it's not about ideology there's no there's no ideology in a book there's no liberal conservative in the work it's a history book killing lincoln the ideology and killing lincoln but lincoln and not politics there is some politics in the trump book because of hillary clinton
a lot of on her in him interacting there were bad so one time
hilary and downward like this it's hysterical
so anyway getting back to labour day i
the hardware pays off i don't know this book is gonna be as big a seller is my killing books i don't know
i know that there be forces of evil to try to destroy it i know them
fraud involving counting the number book sales i know we're prepared but i think in the end
there has to be some honest history on the forty four percent of the united states and its hearted
was for me to sit down on my butt and right that book i get it not just for me but for the record
i believe in america and i believe americans most of you and i know we have foreign nationals watching us all over the world but i believe americans want to know the truth even if it goes against their in
in belief system so anyway happy labor day i take my advice write down all your jobs and it'll bring back pleasant and some not so pleasant memories are a bunch of bad bosses horrible bosses you know that that goes with labor
now i work for myself but so am i or have no i'm not a horrible boss who work for myself my closes assistant has been will be twenty seven years i can't be that bad i but work
is important and the urchins out there need to be taught that because it's satisfying in the end it'll like what's happening to you in the workplace is america you can get a job you might have to move out or move fifteen times but you can you can prosper elsewhere the the
bees get you down as they say happy labour day enjoy it have fun spread the word united states trump out three weeks from tomorrow see you soon
