Bill O'Reilly has been the subject of a witch hunt. This was a result of Williams admitting that he "misremembered." (he lied). The MSM couldn't stand the firestorm that ensued and that's when Mother Jones (David Corn) began a smear campaign against O'Reilly. O'Reilly has already produced hard evidence that Corn lied (no surprise there - par for Mother Jones).

The O'Reilly Factor is an opinion show. O'Reilly does not report "news."

What the MSM is now trying to do to O'Reilly, is what Dan Rather did to George Bush In case you forgot, Rather made up stories about Bush in an effort to smear him. This is what the Left does, with no shame (look what they did to Sarah Palin, and still do).

I wouldn't believe anything that comes from these Leftist "news" organizations. They're all liars.

It seems as if the leftists are upset one of their boys was caught, so they now want to go after someone on the right.
That's exactly what it's about, and since O'Reilly had commented on the Williams admission, he became the target (besides, the Left hates O'Reilly, and Fox News).

O'Reilly did not hear the gunshot when a JFK witness committed suicide.

I have yet to see these questions in his reporting answered, back when he was a serious reporter,

Making fabrications on a talk show are one thing but reporters telling lies to elevate status is quite another.

The same people who tolerate Obama's lies that impact the nation and the world have such high standards for a cable show guy???? You'd think that to be consistent they would have run obama out of office long before a diligent search on cable programs.

If BO lied he would be gone. He didn't so suck it up and go after obama. He tells a new one everyday.

Harken back to feb 15, 1898, havana harbor, to hear the rallying cry, "Remember the Brian Williams!"

Default will obama go the way of brian williams

will obama, susan rice, sens dodd, william jefferson, harry reid, hillary clinton, eric holderERICHOLDERERICHOLDER, joe biden, etc go the way of brian williams?

No, because they just mispoke, misplaced an adverb, that was the information at the time, well the first two judges wouldn't give me a warrant, guns, what guns?, pressure from sniper fire, $$90k in my freezer beacause I thought it was better than in my mattress. AQ is on the run....of course they are expanding their territory at an exponential rate, so I guess that isn't a lie.

Did guam ever tip over?
How did you spend the 2500$$ obamacare saved you?
Hey, there is a shovel ready job reunion next week. Everyone who was employed by a shovel ready job is welcome.
Oh and this year is the 5th anniversary of the summer of recovery.

BO is so much more a priority than your

Lightbulb Will Bill Oreilly go the way of Brian Williams

Of course not.

Williams is a newsman and credibility is all important.

O'Reilly is an opinionator and speaks to an audience of like-minded partisans.

They operate in different environments entirely.

No. Fox News will not suspend Bill O', they'll just ignore it until the fuss dies down.

How do you know he's guilty? This has been all hearsay. O'Reilly offered proof that David Corn lied.

The liberal wet dream of bringing O'Reilly down seems to be fading quickly.

Liberal icons such as Geraldo Rivera and Jon Stewart have risen to his defense.

Nope. He's too valuable to Fox. They will stand by him.
