Rating: 5 stars
Summary: glad to see common sense in america
Review: In the midst in an era of unprecidented spin by the left to twist the truth and throw common sense out the window, it's good to see common sense within the media for a change. Good Book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Garbage non spin for democrats plenty of spin for right wing
Review: O'Reilly cover his radical wing views with his no spin zone but his no spin zone all focus on people from the Democrat side. Exemple Jesse Jackson, plenty rethoric but on the other end nothing about the Reverend Pat Robinson who has a lot of finance deals very suspicious specially in South and Central America. Obssed about the Clintons but forgets about the great S&L scandal during the first Bush presidency and the connection with one of his son. Talks about waste of money from the Clinton presidency and zippo about the millions still not accounted for the Iran-Contra fiasco of Reagan. Wake up America this guy is taking us for a ride. He is dangerous, a liar and a manipulative

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Love the guy....loved the book!
Review: I was shocked at some of the facts Bill provided on taxes, government waste, drugs and deceitful politicians. I knew things were bad, but wow. Thank goodness for journalists like him who try to get the truth out of people in powerful positions. I love Bill's show; and I loved this book. And thanks to his advice at the end of the book, I'm going to establish my own personal "no spin zone".

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Being against the mediocrity of political correctness
Review: O'Reilly is trying to make a strong point against the exaggerated trend of political correctness in America. He is absolutely right, although he does not summarize into the conclusion that "Political Correctness has turned everybody into a shallow mediocrity". Well done though... this book can launch meaningful dialogues in places and settings where nothing was meaningful or really smart so far.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Two stars for trying
Review: Mr. O'Reilly really does attempt to appear fair. I like his probing questions of powerful and famous people. However, he only throws hard questions to people with liberal ideas while ignoring the right. Once you realize that his heart is just not into probing too deeply anyone who thinks like him all appearances of fairness vanish.
"No-spin zone" name should be "no-win zone" for anyone who differs with him. Afterall, he decides what questions to ask and what to put in his book. Waste of someone who could make a difference if he was truly impartial.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Heard it Before
Review: If you're a regular viewer of his TV show, The O'reilly Factor, you have already read the book! The chapter on the fantasy Hillary interview is funny. The rest of the book is Bill's rehash of how all the interviews (when the "NO Spin" took place on his show) is rather boring to a regular viewer. However, if you have never seen his shows, you'll find the book very entertaining.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: A simple review.
Review: Keeping things as pithy as possible:

As with any book of this type, if you agree with the author, you'll love the book. Conversely, if don't agree with the author, you'll love the book...but for different reasons.

A definite must buy for anyone who's ever heard of the infamous Bill O'Reilly.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: O'Reilly shows Americas powerful whos boss
Review: The No Spin Zone by Bill O'Reilly gives powerful people and problems in America a smack with common sense and morals. The No Spin Zone confronts powerful people in America, about the problems in America and O'Reilly argues his points valiantly. O'Reilly expresses his opinion on many issues such as sexual deviants, taxes, media, and drugs. Each issue he discusses also has transcripts of people who oppose him on the issue, which is pulled from his prime time show The O'Reilly Factor. That is what makes the book interesting, you have many of his opponents trying to spin the truth, but O'Reilly unwinds it all so we can get the hard facts that matter and not the political lies and mumbo jumbo.
This selection is great for people who have a understanding of politics, and for people who want a better understanding of current American problems. There really is no down fall to the book, I really couldn't put it down. I like to hear about anything O'Reilly has to say, because it is usually the truth. I give The No Spin Zone five out five, a perfect choice for any reader. Bill O'Reilly has also written two others books, The O'Reilly Factor and Those Who Trespass. Both are just as great as The No Spin Zone.

Review By Nick Sayers, Toledo, WA

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Father forgive me, for I have spinned...
Review: I like Bill O'Reilly, but he really didn't put too much effort into this book. Short and "pithy", this book is a one-evening read.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Honesty Can You In Hot Water
Review: O'Reilly's No Spin Zone is not for people who wallow in (...) and outright lies. It is a book for honest and out spoken people. If you have problems being a No Spinner Mr.O will show you the way! Honesty can get you in hot water, but you need hot water to wash away the grime of spin. This is a book I would recommend to all.
