Bill O'Reilly Twisted Truth On 'War Zone' Account, Says Former CBS Colleague Six other CBS journalists challenge Argentina claims as Fox News host calls allegations ‘garbage’ and says he will show footage to support his reporting

Jon Swaine in New York

Sunday 22 February Former colleagues of Bill O’Reilly who worked alongside the Fox News anchorman in Argentina as the Falklands War ended more than 30 years ago have contradicted his claims to have encountered a perilous situation in a “war zone”.

Eric Engberg, a fellow CBS News correspondent who was in Buenos Aires with O’Reilly in 1982, said the situation there “was not a war zone or even close” and that he and other colleagues did not recall a dangerous incident O’Reilly describes involving an injured cameraman.

“He has displayed a willingness to twist the truth in a way that seeks to invent a battlefield that did not exist,” Engberg wrote in a Facebook post. “He also ought to be ashamed of himself.”

Six other CBS journalists also challenge O’Reilly’s claims, CNN reported on Sunday, adding further pressure on the 65-year-old host of the O’Reilly Factor.

No, it is not ‘an affair’. It is the ongoing sexual repression and kinkiness experienced only by Catholic schoolboys. O’Reilly is a case of arrested sexual development, with his sophomoric sexual fantasies.

I urge you to go to “The Smoking Gun” website and read the court documents.

Mackris recorded his sexually-charged phone calls to her. His Caribbean sex fantasy is a hoot! And in case O’Reilly doesn’t know, rubbing a woman’s sensitive parts with a loofah really hurts! He’s also a sadist!

The guy probably had a pile of Playboy magazines hidden under his mattress there in Levittown. God forbid his cop father ever found them!

He is brainless and immature.

His wife is so lucky to be rid of him.

Odd thing is, in an attempt to deflect and protect Brian Williams, a TRUE liar, the lefty-loons are attacking BOR because they think he is a conservative. He is in no way a conservative. No. Way.

This is a way to distract from the fact that Hillary told basically the same lie as Williams

I ain’t exactly a Catholic apologist around here, but THAT was total BS.
And sorry you got cheated on or something, but you need to get over it. A pile of Playboy magazines? LOL, you sound very childish about this.
I’m ready to cheat on you right now, this minute,, and I don’t even know you!

And given the BOR attacks on FR, it appears the left’s tactic is working. . .deflecting away from Williams and The Beast.

Unlike Congress who seem to be able to kick but one can down the road at a time, FR can handle dishing dirt on multiple targets simultaneously.

Actually, it’s a compliment.
