Bill O'Reilly is much better with a laugh track

Check this out.

O'Reilly on his radio show:

"I don’t own an iPod. I would never wear an iPod… If this is your primary focus in life - the machines… it’s going to have a staggeringly negative effect, all of this, for America… did you ever talk to these computer geeks? I mean, can you carry on a conversation with them? …I really fear for the United States because, believe me, the jihadists? They’re not playing the video games. They’re killing real people over there."

Well - he makes a lot more sense with the laugh track behind him. hmmm, maybe he should consider it? Might give Jon Stewart some competition?
 
I happened to catch a few minutes of the O'Lielly Factor on Friday night and he was shrieking and screaming about the whole OJ thing. he was "debating" ( and I use the word in the loosest possible sense a woman and Billy was going on and on about how vile it was that all of the usual Secular Progressive media were ignoring the story, pointing out that the NYTimes mentioned it in it's business section and how vile anyone who paid it any attention or drew attention to it was, and the woman said, paraphrased, "Well Bill, you're giving OJ a ton of free publicity by shrieking about it right now..." and of course he cut her off and kept yelling "BS!! BS!!BS!!!! It's a huge story, so I have to cover it."

What the fuck.

It's not a huge story. Shit I can quite convincingly argue that it isn't even news.

Fucking harasser. (Bill)

It's going to be on the FOX Network, which everyone at FOXNews has taken pains to point out isn't affiliated in any way with FOXNews, except for being owneed by the same guy and that FOXNews is an offshoot of the FOXNetwork, much like FX. And everyone at FOXNews is Very, very unhappy apparently that the FOX Network is doing this.

And Harper Collins is publishing the book. Guess who owns Harper Collins?

Rupert? Is that you?

and the story comes full circle...
It just strikes me that the OJ book is number 1 on the NYT best sellers list on presales alone. No such thing as bad publicity.
 
I liked the hoots when he mentioned Soros wanting to legal narcotics.

It did deserve a laugh track. Liberals "think the country is flawed" and he thinks we "make mistakes."

We all dislike things about America, it's just when libs do it, conservatives tell them to move to Canada.
 
Bill was on Oprah and was made to look stupid. Now if you can't hold your own against Oprah then you're pretty fuckin' lame.

But we have problems enough of our OWN, eh? :confused:

I don't watch her but someone had it on and I saw him and watched for a few minutes. Her and the audience tore him a new ass.
To his credit, he took it like a man and stood his ground. Didn't make him any better though.

And WHO is Bill O'reilly, GQ? :confused:


He is one of those screeching media demagogues that have so infested the American airwaves in recent years.

He has recently put out a book insisting that we are engaged in a great cultural civil war between Traditionalists (i.e. anyone he likes) versus Secular Humanists (anyone who has ever said or done a bad thing). I'd be curious to learn on which side of the divide he thinks his boss, Rupert Murdoch, belongs.

Oh, fuck. No wonder I am only interested peripherally... :rolleyes:

Thanks for the info. :cool:

HarperCollins is owned by News Corp.

And News Corp. owns what TV network?

;)

Not quite accurate. he calls them Secular Progressives and they consists of anyone who doesn't fall in line with his way of thought.

Also, O'Lielly is quite infamous for having a sexual harassment suit filed against him by one of his former producers a few years back. The suit was settled before it ever went to court and while the final details were never made public, it's fairly common knowledge that O'Lielly had to pay out over $20,000,000. You can read the complaint of former producer Andrea Mackris here: Falafal

Oh and Jimi you Canadians had better watch out, as O'Lielly has threatened a boycott of Canada, which will probably go as well as his boycott of France.

I've never seen him take anything 'like a man' must have been a new experience for him. Usually he gets on his show and whines and cries about it later... :rolleyes:
