Has O'Reilly Completely Lost It?

You should take anything O'Reilly says with a very large grain of salt. He's paid to say things.

 

O'Reilly is a prime example of what happens when newsmen become entertainers rather than journalists. Ditto for Brokaw, Jennings, Rather, Limbaugh, etc. etc. ad nauseum.

Edward R. Murrow, where are you now that we need you most?

 

You don't listen very well. He said he was going by information from the prosecutor, and that that was GOING to be their sentence. He didn't say they'd ALREADY been sentenced. He wasn't proven wrong about anything. Connie Chung is a better program for you anyway...lots of "feel-good" stuff on there.

 

You seem to know a lot about O'Reilly for someone who refuses to watch Fox News.

It was obvious to me that he said the information they had was that they were going to be sentenced.

I vaguely remember the Netherlands thing...but why wouldn't their government try to make their policy look favorable? How is that hard to believe?

Watch the show or don't, I really don't care. I like the issues they discuss and the no-b.s. questions. The fact that O'Reilly is an ass at times doesn't bother me that much.

Paul Begala and James Carville are on for an hour now though on CNN, that might be more your speed.

 

Then the entire state of Utah is nothing but assclowns.

Not always...if a guy is mugging me at knifepoint, I have every right to shoot him right in the face. That's taking the law into my own hands.

A conviction, especially one based on a guilty plea, is plenty good enough for me.

Ummm....how about the fact that the shopkeeper didn't do anything.

Maybe you missed it when he had Dr. Nednow on. The doctor refuted O'Reilly's assertion that he made certain claims in his lawsuit, and O'Reilly said: Maybe I'm wrong...I have not been given a copy of all of the attatchments to your lawsuit. He was considering the fact that he had been given incomplete information.

 

Since that is the state where the Utah Jazz come from, I'd have to say...

I agree with you!

 

My "political" beliefs lean to the independent side. There, I admit it.

What other shows are you talking about?

One of O'Reilly's most common sayings is "I cede your point". You're wrong again.

 

They should have just killed that guy.

Molesting children is the worst possible crime.

They should get citizenship awards.

Independent doesn't mean you don't have opinions, or that they're all right down the middle. I only post on certain topics anyway.

Talkback Live? Are you talking about Arthel Neville? Yum. I haven't seen the show since she took over. She used to be on Fox, and b****y would be the last word I'd use to describe her. I only remember that druggie chick, Susan Rook, or something like that.

You said he ignores points, I pointed out that he doesn't. That makes you wrong, not me.

 

Part of the problem on shows like that is they have to make time constraints. So the hosts have to reel it in every so often. It's annoying, but I guess there's a legit reason behind it.

 

Shows about controversial topics with comments from a live audience are horrible. Nobody gets the time to say anything of substance. It makes O'Reilly look like the patron saint of patience.

 

The problem with the Talkback Live woman is that she's supposed to be a moderator. But she has a bad habit of cutting off people she disagrees with and giving more time to the people she likes. The moderator is supposed to be unbiased and ensure the conversation stays organized, but she lets her own views get in the mix.

 

Knowing after the the Fact should be irrelevent to their Punishment.
