Popular cable TV host Bill O’Reilly will step down as the host of his syndicated talk radio show early next year, saying he can “no longer give both TV and radio the time they deserve.”

“The Radio Factor” -- which began in 2002 and runs on more than 400 radio stations, as well as satellite operator Sirius XM Radio Inc. -- will end in the first quarter of 2009, Fox News Channel said. Locally, the show airs weekdays 9-11 a.m. on KABC-AM (790).

O’Reilly will continue hosting “The O’Reilly Factor” on the Fox News Channel and writing his weekly newspaper column.
