This is a typical Fox News move. Bill O'Reilly constantly labeled George Tiller a "baby killer" and that "he has blood on his hands". When some right wing nut kills Tiller, Bill has to absolve himself of any blame. He puts forth a false juxaposition saying the "liberal media covered George Tiller but didn't cover the murder of Army recruiter WIlliam Long.

The following clip shows Fox and Bill busted for their outright lie.

It is hard to get riled up about two monster networks competing for advertising revenue by flaming each other.

Heh, well to Bill's credit, he acknowledged the error and apologized for it on-air. Try finding examples from douches like Rush, etc, of being able to man up and admit fault on the air.

I think he got too worked up and let himself go off on a tangent that wasn't backed up by fact, due to him obviously not being able to watch CNN all day long.

I'm pretty sure that asshat has a team of assistants who do research on that sort of thing.

Not according to the ratings

He sure doesn't have the large audience of fat angry white guys that Bill O has.

You're right, I guess having no audience is better :roll:

Corrected for accuracy.

Who is Rick Sanchez? Just another aspiring Obama cabinet member wanna-be, trying to leech some fame off of people with an actual audience like Bill O'Reilly?

:confused:

Yeah but all they do is talk about Twitter.

They're all bad, MSNBC just recently took the cake for me for the whole Morning Joe *brewed by Starbucks*, talk about shameless cocksucking, jeebus.

O'Rielly's audience mostly consists of bitter losers who intentionally keep themselves insulated from the hypocrisy in anything he says. Bill and his buddies have successfully convinced them that anything outside FNC or AM radio is "librul media" so a rival network attacking Bill and making him look like the clown he is won't do a thing to his ratings.

US News Media sucks in general. PBS is about the only good source of News and that's extremely limited.

Do you watch cable news?

"I generally don't. Mainly because I don't find most of the cable chatter very persuasive. I've used this analogy before, it feels like WWF wrestling. Everybody's got their role to play. I know a lot of these guys. And if Pat Buchanan is having a conversation with Chris Matthews or talking to Keith Olbermann, everybody's got their set pieces and, so, I don't feel as if I'm learning anything from the debate."

What race are you? Maybe we could dig up some stereotypes that are akin to the "fat old white guy faux news watcher."

I'm not old, fat, and I dont watch cable "news" networks...but I am white and a guy. So im only 2 out of 5 on the stereotype scale. Personal offense not found.

I think you hit the nail on the head. I also think that the stereotype of liberals being condescending and elitist is ridiculous, I have no idea how someone could possibly get that impression of liberals.

These threads never stay on topic. Can't we all just agree that O' Reilly is an imbecile and move on?

I'm middle aged white and a guy too and like you I don't watch Cable news. Now if I were to watch O'Really I'd probably be angry and even maybe fat.
