Bill O'Reilly, Need I say More?

I thought about adding this to our newly added daily post 'WorthyMentions from the Liberal Blogosphere', (the name can possibly change in thefuture, and if there are any suggestions for a new title, please feel free tosend them in to The Blue State). Idecided it was worthy of a post of its own.

On Friday's ' The O'Reilly Factor' (5/11/07), Bill was fed up and said"I'dlike an honest media in this country...is this too much to ask?" As Iwatched this, I knew the News Houndswould be all over it, so I waited for their post.

Bill O'Reilly was on a tear on the Factor last night 5/11/07 because an8-page article by retired General McCaffrey that says there are some positivesigns in Iraq is not on the front page of the New York Times or the BostonGlobe. I don't know how to break it to him, but it's not on FOXNews.comeither. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that the article is over sixweeks old, and in that time 150 moreAmericans have lost their lives in Iraq.

First O'Reilly summarized the eight pages for us, and it was strikingly likeall the talking points we hear on FOX on a daily basis: our cause is just; theconsequence of failure will be severe; we now need a last powerful effort toprovide the politcal support, economic resources, and military strength it needsto succeed. In faint yellow-on-pink print in the graphic you can make out thedate: March 26th, 2007.

O'Reilly never sided with McCaffrey whenhe was critical of the war, but now is in love with him and his '8 pages'. Billalso says "if things are getting better, don't derail the train"...whydidn't we hear him say the opposite while the war was not getting better? (whichwas the entire time)

Retired Col. David Hunt was their to support O'reilly'srant, however Hunt doesn't give Bill everything he wanted to hear. When O'Reillydiscusses the war with retired Generals and Colonels or other experts, he will go at them if theydo not agree with him, however he always agrees with his "Body Language Expert"Tonya Reiman. When a guest does agree with him, he'll cut them off and move on to another issue or statement to gain as many agreements he can secure for future "back up".
 

Bill O'Reilly has gotto be one of, if not THEE most disrespectful news show hosts there ever was. Read therest of The News Hounds Post HERE...
