I watched this at my gym last night. I don't even like Everclear, but this guy (Art) was well spoken and got his point across. I almost fell off the tread mill laughing at Oreilly.

I wouldn't really call that "pwnage". I thought O'Reilly asked appropriate questions and gave Art plenty of time to talk. I also thought Art provided some good answers, despite sounding like a 14 year old at times. The bottom line is that it is just a music video, and the artist can make any reference or statement that he/she wishes. Who cares? Even O'Reilly seemed pretty bored with the subject.

I see a band member who doesn't even know what the hell he's talking about. Plus he looks like he's on drugs.

Yeah I noticed he did too.

I'm not the biggest fan of O'reilly, but I think it's great how he has guys like this on his show. Hopefully people will realize that these contemporary artists are all hacks.

I see a band whose music hasn't gone anywhere since their first album trying to be edgy and controversial, to get some additional exposure, to sell some albums.

Mission accomplished?

I just watched the video again and have to say that the Everclear guy is being a complete ass and doesn't know WTF he's talking about. O'Reilly is actually being quite nice. If anything, the Everclear guy is owning himself.

O'Reilly owned himself as soon as he claimed he doesn't judge people.

I see someone trying to resurrect a band that has been long dead for a good reason through controversy. I see a guy trying to talk his way out of bashing religion for an apparently uninformed reason by contradicting himself and making no sense.


His reason for bashing religion? His mother was religious and he didn't like her giving money to religion. OH MAN... BURN THE CROSSES AND BIBLES NOW! PILLAGE AND DESTROY ALL HOLY BUILDINGS! ART ALEXIKIS(sp) DOESN'T LIKE HIS MOMMY GIVING MONEY TO A CHURCH!


If his point was "I don't have one" then yeah, he got it across.

O'Reilly is a huge ass, but I don't think he was owned. The shocking part is that Everclear is still making music.

Fox News - your source for "fair and balanced" views from the religious right.

Can anyone have any hint of doubt about Fox New's agenda when they are describing band members and characters in a music video as "heathen" and "blasphemers"? Seriously, this is the sort of thing I'd expect to hear on christian talk radio.

Doesn't really matter who owned who to me, but this clip makes Fox News' bias immediately obvious.

O'Reilly's show is not a news show. Just like Keith Olbermann's "Countdown" is not a news show.

FYI, "The Daily Show" is also NOT a news show, even though plenty of idiots think otherwise.

O'Reilly didn't get pwned at all. However, he gave more speaking time to that guy than I have ever seen anyone on Fox News ever do.

What I really liked about the band member is that he didn't let O'Reilly sneak away with his little side-comments, like many others on Fox news do.

Other people here said he made some good points, and answered the questions well, but I really didn't understand where the band member was coming from. I couldn't understand his reasoning and logic. However, he didn't handle the interview well at all, he acting like a know-it-all 15 year old.

that's why O'Reilly lt him talk all he wanted. Each time that everclear shmuck opened his mouth, he'd dig his own grave a little deeper.
