So, I see O'Reilly is now going after the Simpsons

[DFW]

Calling them "pin-heads" and all.

I don't suppose anyone pointed out to this guy that the Simpsons are cartoon characters? As in "not only are
they not too bright, but they are fictional, to boot?"

On the other hand, look at this with some positive spin: on an intellectual level anyway, O'Reilly is now
picking on someone his own size.............

1. Matt Groening has more wit and wisdom in his little finger

than a thousand O'Lielly's combined.

2. Both are on Fox. Any small chance you're being manipulated into viral advertising?

:hi:

5. Not much

We don't get Fox here. That kind of stuff is forbidden in this country.

7. Kent Brockman: "How wide is the web?"

Lisa: "World."
Kent Brockman: "Wow."

I don't live in front of a computer.

4. D'oh! Even Homer is smarter than that, and he's not the brightest bulb in the pack.

I LOVED that episode. The opening few seconds (after the couch gag/credits) when they picked on Fox News, and again later when Smithers was hired by Dick Cheney.

Brilliant.

6. he's been reduced to fighting with cartoon characters

which is really his speed.

9. I sense that the Simpsons will make fun of O'Liely more

10. Just as dumb as Dan Quayle going after Murphy Brown

[DFW]

12. I remember that, and the parallel is definitely there! n/t
