We reported here on the Politico story that ticket sales have NOT been as high as O’Reilly and Trump wanted….
Obviously O’Reilly is in the media on this to get free advertising…
Former Fox News host Bill O’Reilly reportedly threatened to sue a Politico reporter over an article revealing that sales for his “History Tour” with former President Trump were low, citing conversations with venue ticketing officials.
Politico’s Daniel Lippman on Friday reported that tickets for the tour, which has four stops scheduled at locations in Texas and Florida this December, went on sale June 14, though venue officials said sales have so far been slow compared with other events held at the arenas.
For example, a box office employee at Orlando, Fla.’s 20,000-person Amway Center, which will host Trump and O’Reilly on Dec. 12, told Politico, “There’s still a lot of tickets open.”…
…
The television personality specifically pushed back on reports that Orlando ticket sales were low, calling it “bullshit,” although he did not know exactly how many tickets had been sold at that arena.
O’Reilly then reportedly threatened Lippman, saying, “You put one word in there that’s not true, I’ll sue your ass off, and you can quote me on that.”…

I despise Bill OReilly and Trump.
And his lawsuit is garbage .
Having said that, I don’t understand why it is particularly newsworthy that a lot of tickets are still available for an event five months from now.It would not be unusual at all for this type of event to do most of its ticket sales a few weeks prior to its actual date.

Do you now know what you might be doing on the night five months from now that this circus comes to town ?
