You gotta see this story/video clip:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/07/08/bill-oreilly-takes-on-emn_n_111432.html

Fox doctored photos to make a Jewish guy's nose bigger. The NYT did a photo illustration of O'Reilly, which, if I were him, I'd honestly want a copy of in my house. I think that's pretty cool.
 
Well, 2 things in play here.
O'Reilly apparently can't tell the difference between a drawing and a deliberately doctored photo.
And somehow, O'Reilly always manages to turn this into being about him.
 
Actually, Mark, there is only one thing in play here, the usual one thing:

O'Reilly is a ****ing idiot.
 
What planet does he live on?

Jupiter. It's the only one that's big enough to hit him and his ego.

I stand corrected...

:D
 
I have to say, several years ago I would occasionally watch his show. I thought he had some logical points and a fairly middle of the road approach. But hell yeah, it got to the point where I would sit there, open-mouthed, listening to him force his poor guests to talk about how great he is...brought everything back to his "persecution." It's sort of sad because there really is a brain in there somewhere, but his ego screamed at his brain at some point and now the brain is no longer functioning. That guy is an abomination. I don't understand anyone who watches his show.

Because if he preaches the party line you like and agree with, you care less about the presentation.
 
For all of O'Reilly's hair-trigger willingness to put someone on blast if they don't genuflect at his altar, I can't believe BOR won't take on Rush Limbaugh for calling him Ted Baxter. BOR has stalked people with cameras for saying less.

Yeah, I get that. Still stupifies me that people put up with his self-aggrandizing format. It's even more amazing to me that O'Reilly doesn't have a clue as to how he comes across...
 
When this nutjob croaks, his thread will read like Jesse Helms x100.

Republican, Democrat, it doesn't matter. O'Reilly is an evil ****.

Bill likes to bully people his viewers don't know anything about, so he can portray them to his sheep as evil caricatures. There's no way he can con them into buying that Rush is some sort of secret leftist. Plus, Bill's answer for everything is always "look at my ratings!", but on radio Rush squashes him by a margin vastly larger than his advantage against Olbermann.
 
Gee here is something we've never seen --- a thread started for the sole purpose of giving the SportsJournalists.com liberal mafia a place to whine and ***** and cry and then insult a conservative personality and/or Fox News.......
