Riled by O'Reilly......Unbelievable gall from Fox and O'Reilly

Riled by O'Reilly

Bill O'Reilly and filmmaker Robert Greenwald are going another round.

Last week, in his "Talking Points Memo," O'Reilly angered the director of "Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch's War on Journalism" by comparing him to Islamic suicide bombers and believers in the Third Reich.

"O'Reilly has simply lost his mind," Greenwald, who is Jewish, tells us. "I demand that O'Reilly apologize."

He also challenges O'Reilly to "a real debate on the issues, not his silly name-calling."

Is O'Reilly game?

"Why would we book a has-been like Robert Greenwald on cable's highest-rated program?" says a Fox News rep. "We wish him well on his road to extinction."

Says Greenwald, whose latest target is Wal-Mart: "O'Reilly continues to hide behind his microphone."

1. This is why i dont listen to the thug.

It's a much happier world for me when I dont hear from the fiend.

2. It isn't just O'Liely. Check out this thread. It's Fox policy, and some of

what they've done is ILLEGAL. I recommend reading this thread through - there's a lot of information there. We need to complain to the FCC, complain to the corporate sponsors of these programs, and press for prosecution.

4. Isn't there an implied warranty of merchantability?

Same with the NYT and the Valery Plame outing. I KNOW that if I had had a subscription for the last two years I would be wanting my money back from the NYT. Same thing with FOX. We're paying for this sh**. I want my money back, damn it.

6. I recommend complaining to their corporate sponsors and publicizing

these criminal outrages. I'm hoping a major organization will prosecute them, as what they are doing is clearly illegal.

5. Greenwald ought to know better than that.

Much better to simply keep making good product and ignoring them. After a while they will be begging him to come on to their stupid programs.

7. If he's such a has-been, then why did O'Falafel say such

An incendiary thing about him? Kinda strong language for someone purportedly not big enough to go on his show. :shrug:

8. "cable's highest-rated program" ? Really?

Now is that a fact or just a bit of wishful thinking? And if it's true,....oh poor cable. It certainly has my condolences, but not my patronage. :evilgrin:
