Hopefully, [I will be] back in the saddle shortly.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Without revealing many specifics about his health, O\u2019Reilly continued to post new blogs about various political stories.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cGreetings, No Spin Nation! Your tour guide is OK and recovering from some stomach stuff,\u201d he wrote in a Friday, January 23, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.billoreilly.com\/b\/Another-No-Spin-Update\/898832911087531592.html.\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">update<\/a>. \u201cWe are open on the website and \u2026amazing good wishes have arrived here in New York City, and it\u2019s hard to describe my gratitude.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">O\u2019Reilly jokingly added that he wanted to plan a \u201cjail break\u201d out of the medical facility where he is receiving treatment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cWorking on the first broadcast back because there\u2019s nothing else to do here except watch hysterical local TV news coverage about snow generated by global warming,\u201d he wrote, referring to a storm anticipated to affect the New York area. \u201c[I] have an invite to go to church with Don Lemon, but might be too risky. Who knew the depth of his spirituality?\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">O\u2019Reilly further promised that he will share \u201canother update\u201d in the Sunday, January 25, edition of his blog.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cStay safe. The NSN is the best!\u201d he concluded, referring to his supporters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">O\u2019Reilly launched his \u201cNo Spin News\u201d blog and podcast in 2017 after <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/celebrity-news\/news\/bill-oreilly-opens-up-on-fox-news-firing-the-truth-will-come-out-w478725\/\">being fired from his on-air position<\/a> at Fox News over sexual misconduct accusations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI am sad that I\u2019m not on television anymore. I was very surprised how it all turned out,\u201d O\u2019Reilly said on the podcast in April 2017. \u201cI can\u2019t say a lot, because there\u2019s so much stuff going on right now, but I can tell you that I\u2019m very confident the truth will come out. And when it does \u2014 I don\u2019t know if you\u2019re going to be surprised, but I think you\u2019re going to be shaken, as I am.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">O\u2019Reilly publicly denied the allegations several months later in September 2017.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cIf you look at the totality, this was a hit job \u2014 a political and financial hit job,\u201d he stated on the <i>Today <\/i>show. \u201cIn 42 years, I\u2019ve been in this business [and] I\u2019ve worked for 12 companies.

In fact, [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">O\u2019Reilly further claimed that he was accused after former Fox chairman <strong>Roger Ailes<\/strong> \u201cwent down\u201d after allegations of sexual harassment.
