Trump Will Sit Down with O’Reilly Tomorrow Night, Ending Fox Boycott

 

bill trumpDonald Trump‘s Fox News boycott is apparently over. The network announced tonight that Trump will appear on The O’Reilly Factor Tuesday night after he angrily declared he’s boycotting Fox News and won’t be doing any more shows.

That was five days ago.

Trump announced his boycott after various rants against Megyn Kelly, Bill O’Reilly, and Megyn Kelly again.

Fox News fired back quickly against Trump with a blistering statement that declared, “When coverage doesn’t go his way, he engages in personal attacks on our anchors and hosts, which has grown stale and tiresome. He doesn’t seem to grasp that candidates telling journalists what to ask is not how the media works in this country.”

But the day after, Fox announced Roger Ailes would meet with Trump, and now Mediaite has independently confirmed a New York Times report tonight about Trump’s appearance with O’Reilly tomorrow night.

The Trump-Fox meeting, though, has reportedly not taken place yet.
