Bill OReilly keeps addresses to his media enemies at a bare minimum, but tonight he devoted an entire segment to declaring war on left-wing media criticism site Media Matters for America and their current tax-exempt status. Along with Washington Times reporter C. Boyden Gray, OReilly highlighted the fact that MMFA had not paid taxes since well into the George W. Bush administration and it would take an independent formal complaint to remove their status. OReilly, who defined Media Matters as an organization dedicated to war on Fox News, asked Gray to explain

BORing. If that guy spent as much time really kicking booty as he does spouting BS I might take him seriously.
I’d rather listen to Limbaugh sell his new tea than watch BOR pontificate.
Ted Baxter is getting boring. Opps...sorry, he been boring for quite some time.
How sad, that little billy has become so bad that one would insult Ted Baxter, a fictional dweeb, by calling billy ‘Ted Baxter’.
I thought I saw an article here on FR that Media Matters’ tax exempt status was recently taken away. Maybe Bill should start reading FR to stay informed.

That my friend is an excellent point! You know...come to think of it, I actually liked Ted Baxter from MTM...very funny!
*Eyes wide and face puckered* “Oooooh nooooo, can’t have that!”
Just asking.
I think Israel should request Soro’s extradition as a war criminal for his actions during the NAZI occupation of Hungary.
Media Matters Uses Tax-Free Funds to Attack Fox News
My extensive search (google) found just two cases which could have been construed -- either on purpose or due to carelessness -- that his staff could have thought were racist.
There was a discussion here about an article in a San Francisco Asian publications with the title "Why I Hate Black People." There was also a remark by a Freeper something like "people think I hate black people just because. . . ."
Obviously BOR's crack staff found that string of characters "I hate black people" and that was all they needed . . . .
EXACTLY like the stuff media smatters does.
George Soros funds MM and is trying to shut down FNC
And they don’t pay taxes as they are supposed to be a fair entity that doesn’t have to pay taxes, like ACORN.
MM is a Soros funded sham that does nothing but attempt to discredit FNC and is trying to shut them down.
BOR is dead on right on this “matter”
It’s probably the first thing I agree with the guy on but he’s gotten so boring, so fuzzy and so middle of the road I think someones been dosing his coffee with depo provera.
So did O’reilly file a formal complaint, or did he just flap his yap? Let me guess.
Are you sure it wasn’t CAIR?
highlighted the fact that MMFA had not paid taxes since well into the George W. Bush administration and it would take an independent formal complaint to remove their statusNope. Better concentrate on the ethanol and light bulbs issues.
pot?... meet kettle
Wasn’t C. Boyden Gray a VERY big Lawyer???? Same man?
Oops! Yep, I believe you are correct. Thanks for catching that. :-)
