More name-calling (listen up, Gold-Star mothers) to deflect from the issue.

This is quite a quandry for O'Reilly.

Usually, he deals with adversaries by:
1) Shouting them down, or
2) Cutting their microphone

But now he's being countered by other media professionals who are not dependent on his media platform for airtime. He can't silence them.

And unlike with the victims of his harassment, he can't just pay them millions of dollars on the condition they never speak of the issue again.

Every which way but loofah - Salon.com

What's a lying self-aggrandizer to do?

Their excuse for what? For taking the accusation seriously and suspending (or pre-firing) him from a multi-million dollar job?

pnce again,,,the news media manifests, projects, churns the shyt before the facts are even out..



what should come out of this is two things..

brian Williams is human,,,and made mistakes,,,,,,but in the bigger picture , he has lost his job because of accuracy??? give me a break, most of the mainstream media is over 95% left leaning liberals
because of such bias,,,they themselves opened a void,,, because there wasn't accurate..... and balance in news
and in this void,,,,out comes fox news and Rush L

the liberal media hasn't been accurate for years,,,, the way they coddle Obama is sickening...I feel bad for the republican that is president again,,,because the media will be sea-gulls once again,,,and not the protectors
of Obama


the upside of the liberal media bias towards Obama, they haven't been truthful or accurate at all,,theyve protected Obama

when Obama is gone,,,,it will seems everything has gone to hell - all the sudden,,,there will be more homeless than ever before (no homeless when a democrat is presient)
more kids will be starving, more old people will be starving and homeless..

the shameful left media wont report on this and soooo many more areas so it wont stick to Obama

and Hillary,,,she got such a pass on Benghazi, its shameful...

no wonder we get riled up ....not all of us are the lunatic left
Ridiculous post. Your ranting is only matched by your paranoia. Faux News is an embarrassment to the concept of "fair" broadcasting. They don't have any clue about the concept of "unbiased reporting". Nothing more than a shill for the GOP, and they are universally laughed at..

Feel free to refer to it as "stolen valor" if you're politically correct, as the rabid right demands.

FOX does not have to be unbiased. They just have to be correct. FOX is the only place to get the real news unfiltered Obama's handlers. The news is not supposed to be cheerleaders for governemnt talking points. They are supposed to be our voice to question authority.

O'Reilly has been vindicated as being 100% correct according to the lastest news.

That "Faux News" krap is getting old. Put down those MSNBC flash cards.

Now, let's see...which station was it that edited Zimmerman's 911 call, edited a piece about Orthodox Jews to make it appear they wanted to cover up cases of child sexual abuse, edited Rick Perry's speech to make it appear that the economic "black cloud" he referred to was a racist slur, and admitted to blowing up GM vehicles to concoct a phony story?

Who's the laughingstock and the liar?

Except that Bill O'Reilly's account is increasingly vindicated:

Ex-NBC Bureau Chief Backs Up O’Reilly’s Account of Falklands War Riot | Mediaite

And the cretin who cooked this smear up, David Corn(hole), is going down in flames, again. But being a shill for Marxist "Mother Jones", if anything this fiasco will enhance Cornhole's street cred, or is that bathhouse standing.

CBS News has pretty much blown Mother Jones out of the water by releasing video of the 1982 Buenos Aires riots that O'Reilly was covering. They show full-scale battles between riot police and throngs of anti-government protesters complete with voice-over narration from other CBS correspondents.

A question that non-partisans should be asking is: Why is the boutique leftist journal Mother Jones the only one covering this so-called scandal? Why hasn't the anti-Fox mainstream press picked it up? You'd think they would be dying to take down Fox's biggest star!

Face it, Lefties. Brian Williams is a big fat liar.
