Tony Snow fans will love absolutely love this.

The former White House Press Secretary -- and all around good guy! -- is going to be Bill O'Reilly's permanent fill-in guest host on the "Radio Factor."

O'Reilly himself posted the good news at his website Thursday:

We're pleased to announce that former White House Press Secretary Tony Snow will be joining the Factor as Bill's permanent fill-in host for the Radio Factor!

You can hear Tony on the Radio Factor on Fridays, starting tomorrow, Friday, February 21 [sic].

Welcome to the Factor, Tony! We're all excited to have you on board.

Despite BOR getting his dates confused, let's give a rousing, NewsBusters welcome to Tony while wishing him the best in his new endeavor.

Break a leg, Tony!

Yea! Tony.

Glad to see him back in the news/broadcasting business. I missed his daily show on FoxNews when he left to take the Press Secretary job.

Hopefully he gets his own show back soon.

The day that "politician" became a career choice is the day we started losing the Republic. Let's get it back! Alan Keyes '08.

I saw Snow on O`Reilly

I saw Snow on O`Reilly last night.  His hair grew back, his color and facial-fullness looked good.  He looks and sounds great.  I wish him and his family the very best.

I am tickled pink...I miss

I am tickled pink...I miss him most of all on Fox News Sunday as the host...

I started watching him on Fox when Fox was just starting out with a big ol' dish satellite and could get channels that you could catch them prepping before air, you could hear what they were saying and I assume they thought were private...it was fun, Connie Chung and a few others were fun to hear their language and listen to their biases to an extent, it never lasted long...it was also fun watching them make clips of people on the street and get opinions on different political matters, if they didn't like the opinion it didn't get on the air, even if the opinion was in the majority you could count on the minority leftist bias being put on the air, I used to check the nightly news to see...nbc, cbs all the same...(sorry about the long-winded rant here)

Btw...Tony was always a humor filled gentleman in the instances I am talking about above.

Anyway, I love Snow and wish him the best and will be glad to hear or see him more and more...in any venue, I also wish him and his family continued health and happiness.

This is good news. Tony is

This is good news. Tony is definately one of the good guys, and there is a lack of good guys to choose from today.

LOL...got you subtle message within the message there...hehehee.

Great News

I hope Tony Snow is doing well.  He is one class act.  Bill O'Reilly made an excellent choice.

So, Tony and Laura Ingraham

So, Tony and Laura Ingraham as Bill's back-ups.

Not to shabby "gets".

Great news!

I'm glad to hear he's going to be back on the radio! Does this mean he wont be going on for Rush anymore? I really hope not.

drone... What the heck

drone...

What the heck are you talking about?

I didn't know he had been going on for Rush... even if he had I would enjoy it, but secondly what do you mean by I really hope not....eh?

Tony's back!!!

It is so great to hear that Tony Snow's on the air again!! As happy as I was for him when he became press secretary, I missed him at Fox, and on his radio show. He looks great, and seems to be holding his own with the cancer...God bless him. It would be great to see him back on television again, too. He is a real class act. Go get 'em Tony!!!

I think for his first

I think for his first permanant back-up show he should interview Dana

No Poofdas

botg... I do not see how

botg...

I do not see how Dana stopped from tossing the contents out of that cup right at Helen's yapping screeching leftist old face...

Dana has been as I posted before when she first started my very favorite of all of the WH Press Corps spokesperson.

I think you have a great idea....it would be great to hear them talk about the press somewhere someday...without any flowery BS.

BT

you make me think that perhaps it would be a better interview after Dana no longer has an official capacity and duty to moderate her opinions.

No Poofdas

LOL...botg... So right

LOL...botg...

So right you are.

What a blessing. Tony looks

What a blessing. Tony looks so good, like before he got sick. Glad to see a truly great guy beat that nasty stuff!

High Octane Tony

I sincerely hope that Tony Snow will stop being diplomatic as he is nice enough to be Pope. Those qualities work great in ministering to people in need, but he is in a business which is in deep need of intelligent, hard hitting reparte'.

It gets very old to see Mr. Snow be nice to people being complete anal orifices. When it is true that Helen Thomas is an old nutty bag.........SAY IT.

There is nothing wrong in Mr. Snow's vast experience and existential experience to tell stories by example of David Gregory and the host of talking heads being AO's. There is nothing wrong in stating Gregory likes to act superior but sure wasn't superior when he was drunk as a skunk trying to cover President Bush in Asia.

Pluck the feathers of the peacocks Mr. Snow.......if not get a chicken plucker.......for I would presume the worst the MSM can gossip about you is that your a boring, nice, have a halo and smile.

When are the O'Reilly's going to figure out that YouTube is just waiting for cell phone video of reporters acting like the base humans they are.

Is Laura Out?

Does this mean Laura I is out as guest host?

That's what I'd like to know

I'm glad to see that Tony Snow is staying in the game. But I thought Ingraham was doing a good job. Is she too opinionated for "The Factor"? 

Power to the people!

TV and Radio Factor

Laura subs for the TV Factor

Tony Snow subs for the Radio Factor. 

Rush

Tony Snow was a sit in all the time for Rush. As as "I hopt not", it was in reference the fact I want him to continue doing Rush's show, but he might be exclusive to Orilley now.

Welcome back

Welcome back to the elegant, graceful, polished Tony Snow.

 

Go Snow!!! :-D

Go Snow!!! :-D

Tony

If you ask me, Bill couldn't have a better sub.  The guy is intelligent, likeable, and one of the fairest in media.  Above all, a genuine good person who can make his point without being "snarky".  Welcome back, Tony!!!

I wish Tony Snow would get

I wish Tony Snow would get his own TV show. That's one I would definately watch!
