Science Proves Bill O'Reilly is a Bigot

[Ian David]

I have long suspected that the old-time conservative pundit Bill O'Reilly was a bigot. Of course I couldnt really prove that to my friends with whom I lived in Texas. But finally the marvels of modern science have given us evidence for the bigotry of Bill'Reilly. Thank you University of Indiana! http://newsinfo.iu.edu/news/page/normal/5535.html

Is anyone surprised? Not really. Will he notice? Doubtful. Because you see, science reflects reality and reality is known to have a distinct liberal bias.

2. well, not exactly

Isn't it somewhat ironic that in a study which says that BillO often resorts to "name calling" that you put name calling right in the title?

Then there are BillO's targets - not one particular race, creed, gender or sexual orientation (classes usually associated with the word 'bigot') Instead, his targets are:

"Left-leaning media (21.6 percent) made up the largest portion of bad people/groups, and media without a clear political leaning was the second largest (12.2 percent). When it came to evil people and groups, illegal aliens (26.8 percent) and terrorists (21.4 percent) were the largest groups."


It reminds me of our own targets - Foxs News (right leaning media) and the M$M or the corporate media. If he's a bigot for bashing his politixal opponents in the media and also the media in general, then so are we, because we do the same thing from the other side.

Also, if you look at the second part. Are you gonna say BillO's a bad person for attacking terrorists and calling them evil? And illegal aliens? Haven't they broken the law? Isn't that generally considered a bad thing? Evil is too strong a word perhaps for somebody who is just working at a job for low pay and perhaps using a stolen identity or other false papers. Still, when the number doing it is ten million and growing, it can seem like a very big problem, and thus those people are part of a group that is causing a very big problem.
