O'Reilly Pinheads and Patriots

Just finished reading Bill O'Reilly's book Pinheads and Patriots. If you watch his TV show, a great deal of the content of the book repeats what he has said on TV.
Here comes the interesting part of my blog post.
I was talking to friend at a health club I belong to. I told him that I had just finished reading O'Reilly's book. He gave me a lecture about how O'Reilly controls the thoughts of millions of conservative Americans and is leading this country towards fascism. Where do people get these ideas? The guy is just a TV anchor. He has no political power. He has no intention of running for political office.
How can he possibly control the minds of people from the anchor of a TV show interrupted by commercials?
