Bill O'Reilly's Trump 'DIRECT Message' video sprints past his norm

On its own, the Sunday upload is moving at roughly two-thirds of the pace his entire channel keeps in a typical day.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 166,565 views a day, 12 times a normal first day on this channel (14,272).

President Trump's DIRECT Message to the American People

A new upload on Bill O'Reilly's channel usually starts gently, with a first day that stays in the low tens of thousands. "President Trump's DIRECT Message to the American People" broke from that pattern. Posted on Sunday, it spent its first day running at nearly twelve times the usual pace and is already closing in on 80,000 views.

That pace puts this one video close behind the whole channel. His full catalog usually collects only a little more in a day than this single upload is drawing now.

The title leans on one capitalized word and leaves the message itself unsaid. Politics is home ground for O'Reilly, who hosted The O'Reilly Factor on Fox News for about two decades before turning to his own platforms.
