This week, Bill O’Reilly announced a temporary hiatus from his media engagements due to an undisclosed health issue.
The veteran broadcaster, known for his two-decade tenure as the host of “The O’Reilly Factor” on Fox News before his 2017 departure amid sexual harassment allegations, assured his audience of forthcoming updates.
“Hey No Spin Nation. Sorry I am dealing with a malady. We have great doctors so we’ll fight the good fight,” the 76-year-old shared in a blog post on Tuesday.

“Doesn’t affect my fingers so will update you on me, news cycle, and anything major. Hopefully, back in the saddle shortly,” he added, expressing optimism about a swift recovery.
Attempts to reach O’Reilly’s representatives for further comment were unsuccessful as of press time.
O’Reilly hosts his own, “No Spin News,” weeknights at 8 p.m. ET on TheFirstTV.com and DirecTV. He is also a frequent guest on NewsNation.
NewsNation host Chris Cuomo said Tuesday that O’Reilly would not make his scheduled appearance on the show.
“He is sick,” the host of “CUOMO” said during the show. “He’ll be back soon.”
O’Reilly has been the host and producer of “No Spin News” since he was fired from Fox News following a New York Times report that alleged he and the network paid nearly $13 million to settle cases with five women going back 15 years.

“It is tremendously disheartening that we part ways due to completely unfounded claims,” O’Reilly said in a statement after the network axed his show. “But that is the unfortunate reality many of us in the public eye must live with today.”
He has continued to maintain his innocence.
O’Reilly has also served as executive producer on several National Geographic made-for-TV movies based on his best-selling books, like “Killing Lincoln,” “Killing Kennedy” and “Killing Jesus.”
He is releasing another book titled “Confronting Evil: Assessing the Worst of the Worst” about the origins of history’s most evil figures – from Vladimir Putin to Adolf Hitler, The Post reported.
