The No-Spin Zone: Confrontations with the Powerful and Famous in America

The audience of Fox's top-rated cable news talk show The O'Reilly Factor and of the bestselling book by the same name know that this explosive anchor can be articulate, bombastic, scornful, witty, iconoclastic, passionate, persuasive and sarcastic ("Can you feel Gary Condit's pain?"). When conducting interviews, O'Reilly, a two-time Emmy winner with 25 years reporting experience, delivers tough questions and corrosive counterpoints.

The Price of Motherhood: Why the Most Important Job in the World Is Still the Least Valued

Mothers have long suspected that they're getting the short end of the deal -- finally, a highly respected economics journalist proves they're not just griping. Despite all the lip service given to the importance of motherhood, American mothers are not only not paid for all the work they do, they are actually penalized for it. This is an admirable -- and charged -- defense of mothers, reminding us that unpaid female labor is "the priceless, invisible heart of the economy," and those who do it deserve the same rights, and the same respect, as other workers.
