O' Reilly = retarded

[roguerower]

I was watching some old clips of Colbert and Stewart on youtube and ran across both of their interviews on the O'Reilly Factor. When did they decide to give a tv show to a guy who has the maturity of a 10 year old? It seems that whenever someone starts to make a viable arguement against him he just tries to drown them out by yelling. Some of the things he says are so stupid I don't know how he has gotten away with them.

My $0.02

Good story would read again.

He is immature. Or at least his TV personality is. I don't watch him or that network.

 

[robphelan]

ack. i can't believe i ever watched him years ago and thought he was a little right of moderate. i can't stand the windbag.

You = idiot for not being able to find the P&N forum.

Thanks for reporting in, Capt. Obvious.

Even at that price, we've been overcharged.

I wouldn't call his program news. Comedy, perhaps.

 

[polarmystery]

I don't like him either, but he does have a 10 million dollar salary...

Why? I have no clue. When Marina from hotforwords.com was on his Christmas special and explained the word 'X-mas' he thought it was lazy that people use that instead of saying 'Christmas'. However, after she explained that they used to spell Christ with an X in greek times he had nothing to say because he was an ignorant moron.

Bill's alright at times. I think he comes off as very fake when compared to other "conservatives" on TV. At least he doesn't seem to always defend the Republicans when they're obviously wrong, like Hannity does. I'm looking forward to Glenn Beck's new show.

 

[SP33Demon]

A douchebag but not on the level of Hannity or Rush. Colbert and Stewart > him as usual.

Sorry, but if you feel as if you've been wronged please consult my customer service department and we'll be sure to lose your complaint.

But if it weren't for O'Reilly, we wouldn't have The Colbert Report.

I enjoy their books. I learned Perl from the llama and camel books (Learning Perl and Programming Perl). My coworker has some of their Oracle books on her shelf right now.

We're talking about this, right?

Wasn't Greek civilization long gone before the birth of Christ?

O'Reilly is an idiot though.

They still spoke Greek at the time. Most of the New Testament was written in Greek originally, IIRC.

 

[Analog]

O'Reilly owned Barney Frank. That was worth all of his salary.

 

[Arkaign]

O'Reilly is much better on the radio than his TV program.

If you really want to check out hard-core douchebaggery, tune in to Mark Levine, Mike Savage, or any interview with Ann Ghoultergeist.

 

[JS80]

Have you ever watched Olbermann?

 

[IHateMyJob2004]

He uis an idiot with stupid Republican followers that are incapable of independent thought. his average viewer has the "we are winning" attitude so long as he rants.

Nice.

What else do you hate besides your job, Bill O'Reilly, Republicans, and anyone with an optimistic attitude?

Something tells me you haven't listened to him in years.

He pretty much called McCain/Palin cowards for not coming on his show, and spoke pretty warmly on Obama, saying that he expects him to be a Clinton-esque pragmatist. At least on his radio program, he is pretty even-handed, with relatively few rants.

Michael Savage is a phenomenal radio entertainer. I just wish he was on at a better time for the east coast.

 

[mxyzptlk]

I think his show, like most of the talking head shows on the 24hr news networks, is entertainment poorly disguised as news without actually being either informative or entertaining (to me anyway)
