Bill O'Reilly Thinks Bloggers Should Shut Up

I wonder if Bill O'Reilly ever watches his show after it's been aired, becausesometimes it takes hearing yourself in order to realize that maybe you are alittle extreme (or nuts). On the O'Reilly Factor March 30, 2007, Bill, along with MichelleMalkin bullied Roy Sekoff of the HuffingtonPost. The issue was over a post on the Huffington Post blog when CharlesBouley (one of 900 bloggers) wrote a rather nasty piece regarding Tony Snow.Sekoff denounced Bouley's remarks and told O'Reilly "Bouley's post was taken downeight hours after it was posted". He tried to explain to O'Reilly how the blogosphereworks, but Bill was not in listening mode.

O'Reilly said hate comments wouldn't last 15 minutes on hispage. Bill O'Reilly's web page billoreilly.comhas this disclaimer:

News Hounds point out how Bill O'Reilly just can't get himself to say thewords  "Radical Right". On his web page O'Reilly has The O'REILLYPOLL, and this week the question is  "In your opinion, who is themost radical right?" Every time he he mentions the weekly poll on TheO'Reilly Factor, he says "Who's the furthest right". He can't seem tospit out the words "Radical Right"

Max Blumenthal a frequentcontributor for TheHuffington Post and TheNation made a video during CPAC 2007. This will give you a look at Malkin when she is confronted about false information she put in her book In Defense of Internment

Michelle Malkin goes unhinged and launches a hysterical tirade into the lensof my camera. I ask Ann "John Edwards is a Faggot" Coulter why sheisn't the same person on Sunday morning as on Saturday night. Tom Tancredofanatics lose their cool when asked about connection between race andimmigration, then try to conceal their neo-Confederate paraphenalia. A curiouslypale black Republican explains why black Republicans can't get elected. BobBarr, Grover Norquist and "Flipper," the anti-Romney dolphin, discussthe conservative movement. I receive a special gift from David Horowitz...andmuch, much more!

I saw this segment and it was ridiculous. As if the Huffington Post is supposed to monitor 900 people at once. I guess that would be easier to do if they were funded by the government like Fox News is.

And how does Michelle Malkin pass for credible on any level? What are her qualifications? Her job is make O'Reilly appear sane. plain and simple.

George, if you haven't already watched this video of Michelle Malkin being put on the spot by Max Blumenthal at CPAC, it's worth watching.

Malikin is just one of O'Reilly's "yes" people. I just love how he has his cronies come on after every guest that disagrees with him, or the body language GURU. It's also amusing when his soldiers don't agree with him, damn he gets upset!

As I have posted on a number of occasions, the best example of Malkin's lack of objectivity was her appearance on Hardball in 2004 before the election.
