BILL O'REILLY (HOST): The Talking Points Memo is basically my opinion, that the radical left really doesn't want freedom of expression. That's what that's all about, you know, they are using Trump as a stalking horse. But as I've pointed out, Noam Chomsky is way worse than Donald Trump has ever been.

DANA PERINO: If they weren't going after Donald Trump as a target, they would have somebody else.

[...]

O'REILLY: There is a trend in this country, being embraced by a lot of people, to shut down opposing points of view.

PERINO: And that's why when you said in the 20th season of doing this show, one of the things they will complain about, the left will complain about Fox News, especially Hollywood complains about Fox News. They have almost the entire rest of the media comes to a story with their viewpoint, so --

O'REILLY: But we -- I think Fox News gives air time to more diverse viewpoints than any other network on the air. I mean really, because the big three, they don't have a lot of diversity anyway. They just have their shows. 

PERINO: They don't really have a lot of news. 

O'REILLY: Right. And then CNN and MSNBC, you get more on CNN, I mean, they'll give you opposing -- MSNBC is almost all left, all straight down the line, they have a few tokens. But here, you always have a whole bunch of people coming in, every hour. You never know who you're going to see, and they're allowed to say what they want.
