Publisher's summary

Bill O'Reilly is mad as hell - and he's not going to let you take it anymore. In his most powerful and personal book yet, this media powerhouse and unstoppable truth-teller takes on those individuals and institutions in American life who are failing in their duties - big-time. In his inimitable style, mixing wit, pugnacity, and plain common sense, O'Reilly kicks butt and takes (and also names) names, from crooked corporate weasels to venal politicians to lazy and/or politically correct bureaucrats to sexually predatory priests and the Church hierarchy that protects them to a media establishment rife with political bias and economically hooked on violence and smut. At the same time that he calls the famous and powerful to account, he dares to get personal, questioning just how much our closest friends, families, and lovers do look out for us, and delivering a powerful message about personal responsibility and self-reliance in an uncertain world. He forces us to ask just how much genuine altruism is left in a society that thrives on self-indulgence and ruthless competition.

Who's Looking Out for You? is a book that boldly confronts our worst fears and biggest problems in a post-9/11, post-corporate-meltdown world. Its sage, candid advice on regaining control and trust in these troubled times will resonate with the millions of readers and viewers who have come to believe in Bill O'Reilly as the man who speaks for them.

Critic reviews

"[O'Reilly] manages to pull off an inspirational guide to life's most basic quandaries." (Publishers Weekly)

Cry baby liberals try to hurt following

Al Frankin no matter how many times you post bad things about this truthful book, Bill will still outsell yours. Go back to SNL and put out more of your borish comedy skits. Oh that's right you can't can you.....

Intelligent, Interesting, Informative

Obviously those stated below didn't read the book and don't want to deal witih reality. This book is everything my title says.

Who is looking out for you, Bill O'Reilly

Excellent book. Bill is true to his form. He points out the truth as usual that most people like to ignore. A must read for anyone who can accept the truth in society today.

Another 'Must Read'

Know the truth and it will set you free! A great book that shows you how to take responsibility for yourself ... and a strong reminder that you must 'look out for you!'. No one else will (or should!)

An Eye Opener

I heard the whole book and I found iot very informative. He points out how to discern who has the best interest in you and your family and how you can sorround yourself with those you need on your side. This book is intended for everyone who is looking out for this country's interest and not the interest of special interest groups. There is nothing untruthful in the book. It is mostly based on personal experiences and how to overcome difficulties.

If you don't care about this country, if you do not want to continue many of the great traditions that the founders started, if you want to chop this country appart and give it away, then you may not be interested in this book. But it may also open your eyes and change your mind.

Buy for Your High School or College Graduate

"Looking Out for You" is not your typical advice book...and it's not a conservative vs. liberal ideological assault...other reviewers have this book dead wrong! WLOFY is written from the perspective of a fellow graduate from the University of Hard Knocks and it has a caring-mentorship flair in it's style. It's core emphasis is on building lasting, life-long friendships to help you stay accountable and grounded.
Certainly, O"Reilly does take a few opportunities to "call them as he sees 'em" on some of our current events....But, it's not overdone. As I said, do your son or daughter graduate a favor and put this book in their hand or in their MP3 player. They may not immediately understand some of the "pearls" that O'Reilly is tossing out. But, it might help them change their perspective on how they build long relationships with people who will...Look Out For Them.

Simple common sense, well told

Blowhard? Extremist? Conspiracies? Geez, folks, lighten up! Yes, O'Reilly is bombastic, direct, and opinionated, but let's face it. SO ARE YOU GUYS! He just has a different approach to life than you do and I find it refreshing and inspiring. OReilly is a traditionalist in that he believes in hard work, self-discipline, virtue, belief in God (but not that you should be told how to worship in any way), respect for others, respect for authority (AND questioning it!), a sense of humor, and not to take oneself too seriously. If you listen carefully, you will see he is not a right-wind extremist (unless you consider 85% of the American people as such), nor a simple mouthpiece for the "Fox News agenda" (whatever that is). This book is an opinion book, yes, and doesn't once say that if you disagree, you suck. On his broadcasts he regularly invites people to write in with their dissent. At the end of this book he does the same. This volumne is just a basic run down of what worked for O'Reilly to be successful, and what he feels society needs to help others be successful as well. I am a political liberal and have been for many years, but I found that I agreed to some degree with nearly everything he writes, especially the common sense items. He also has a clear and easily understood voice, readin with earnest emphasis and good humor, perfect for audio. Read it, don't be so quick to be offended, don't be an idealogue, and consider his *points*, not whatever mysterious "agenda" you think he might be encouraging. C'mon, people, you are AUDIBLE listeners! Let's show some intelligence, some rational discourse and debate, not angry denounciations without any examples! Take a breath...and RELAX...

Greatr Audiobook

This is a must-listen book for anyone - I don't believe for a second it deserves anything less than 5 stars. First off - it's a GREAT audiobook - he's got a great voice and it's read with enthusiasm and belief - that alone makes it a top book here. Bill tells it like it is - it has nothing to do with politics - it's all about how to tell if people have your best interest in mind - or are the looking out for themeselves? I loved it and my wife loved it (the only thing we've agreed on in the past five years!). I've been a member with audbile for years and this is the best book I've ever listed too. I also bought the print version because I liked it so much.

A Great Listen fair balanced and honest

This book is great. It is a book the forces you to think and come to your own opinion.

BILL DOES LOOK OUT FOR YOU !
