My new book, Killing the Legends, The Lethal Danger of Celebrity, Out Today, and this is a very different type of killing book.
Starting point is 00:04:19 First, the facts. This is the 12th killing book. million copies of my books are in print right now, 18 number one bestsellers, the Killing series, the most successful nonfiction book series in history. Now, Killing the Legends features on its cover Elvis Presley, John Lennon, Muhammad Ali. All of those men have influenced American history in ways very few of us know about. Elvis, for example, in the mid-1950s, he graduated from high school, started driving a truck into Tupelo, Mississippi. You may know that. Well, the culture in America in the 1950s was conformity. Dwight Eisenhower president, post-World War II,
Starting point is 00:05:15 most people look the same, talked the same, thought the same, thought the same way. All of a sudden, a teenager, Elvis, bursts on the scene and blows up the culture. If you're a baby boomer, you'll remember on Ed Sullivan, there was Elvis swiveling, but the camera only shot him from the waist up. Pastors burned his records. Parents yelled at their kids for imitating Elvis. Boys started to slick back their hair. The whole culture changed. Then the Beatles came on the scene.
Starting point is 00:05:59 They changed America as well. Sex, drugs, rock and roll came in. 1967, 68. Anti-authority. It was worse than Elvis. Elvis was anti-conformity. The Beatles brought in anti-authority. You'll remember that. Then Muhammad Ali, the most successful and famous African-American
Starting point is 00:06:27 athlete of all time. He lifted up black people all over the world, an enormous talent and personality. Now, what to Elvis Lennon and Muhammad Ali all have in common? They were crudely. They were crushed by their fame, by their celebrity, and all of them were betrayed. There is a reason Judas Ascariot is featured so prominently in the New Testament, betrayal. Now, Presley, Lennon, and Ali are not victims. They allowed it to happen. But what happened to them is not widely known, and that is what we write about. But there is a more important theme to this book. The two most famous men in America today are Joe Biden and Donald Trump. Both of them have been adversely affected by their fame. Biden gave up every principle he held to become president.
Starting point is 00:07:35 Trump is mired in daily controversy. Fame crush them as well. The book, Killing the Legends, hope you'll check it out. I'm Bill O'Reilly.

Starting point is 00:08:27 Now the O'Reilly Update brings you something you might not know. 158 years ago today, an armed gang known as Bloody Bill's Confederate guerrillas, terrorized a small town in central Missouri. Part of this crew included a 17-year-old boy who would become the most notorious outlaw in U.S. history. Here is the story of Jesse James. James was born in Clay County, Missouri, September 1847. His older brother Frank fought for the South in the Civil War.
Starting point is 00:09:03 Jesse himself, too young for combat. In 1864, the skinny teenage. joined a renegade militia led by Bloody Bill Anderson. They terrorized pro-union enemies throughout the heartland. On September 27th, Jesse James and the gang ambushed northern forces stationed in the small city of Centralia, Missouri. The guerrillas looted the town, attacked a train attempting to flee. 24 union soldiers were stripped of their uniforms, shot to death and scalped. A nearby regiment descended on Santralia to stop the carnage.
Starting point is 00:09:44 After a brief battle with bloody Bill and his crew, 123 U.S. troops dead. Jesse James quickly gained notoriety throughout the Great Plains for his good looks and violent temper. After the war, he earned a living through robbery, extortion, intimidation. Southern newspapers stylized the gangster as a modern Robin Hood and a heroic rebel. Sheltered by Confederate sympathizers, Jesse James alluded authorities year after year. Over the next couple of years, the James brothers robbed dozens of banks in Western Missouri.
Starting point is 00:10:26 By the late 1870s, the group kept a relatively low profile, but one by one, members of the Jesse James gang were either captured or killed. After spending a few quiet years farming, Jesse James himself organized a new gang, including local outlaws Charlie and Robert Ford. After a routine squabble among the gang, the Ford brothers decided to kill Jesse James for the reward money. On April 3, 1882, while Jesse's mother made breakfast in the next room, Robert Ford shot Jesse James in the back of the head. He died instantly. Folks today are still visiting his grave on the outskirts of Kansas City. His tombstone reeds, Jesse James, died April 3, 1882, age 34. He was murdered by a traitor and a coward whose name is not worthy to appear.
