Tickets starting at $65 went on sale recently for shows in Anaheim, Calif., Baltimore, Las Vegas and Tampa, Fla.
Mr. O’Reilly typically trumpets the tour on his Fox News program — “Tickets make great Mother’s Day
and Father’s Day gifts, plus birthdays, you know the deal,” he said last week — to alert viewers about shows.
With more than 5,000 episodes under his belt, Mr. O’Reilly is the jewel in the Fox News crown: His show has generated billions of
dollars in revenue, including over $446 million from advertising from 2014 to 2016, according to the research firm Kantar Media.
His show, “The O’Reilly Factor,” which airs at 8 on weeknights, is routinely the highest-ranked show on cable news.
First known as “The O’Reilly Report,” his prime-time show became a phenomenon, prompting much liberal hand-wringing
about the popularity of Mr. O’Reilly’s sharply conservative, and occasionally misleading, commentary.
