O'Reilly! Just shut up!

[Pan_Yans Wife]

Beck has defended him saying that there is a certain amount of play between the two of them when he is on O’Reilly’s show. He hinted that O’Reilly plays devil’s adovcate and that we, the watchers, really don’t know all that O’Reilly is thinking.

My answer to that is simply that O’Reilly must not be thinking anything that would be earthshattering or groundbreaking, something that would really stimulate his audience. We would have heard it by now.

Thought he was finished at BU. You are correct,

[notaliberal]

Don't cha know, he has to explain it to the folks, because the folks just don't understand.

Jim, this says more about the FNC than it does BOR.

What is needed is some competition to the FNC, that will fix it. And the other a-holes like Whorealdo and Beckel that make the network unwatchable.

"name and town, name and town, name and town, if you wish to opine."

And then he tosses words out like poltroon as if his listeners don't know the definition and need to look it up. BOR is a poltroon.

I emailed O tonight, told him he sounded like Juan Williams on the financial protection crap.

I did too. He completely missed the point that it was government regulations (CRA) that got us into the financial mess in the first place.

[Bullish]

But he says it with great specificity!

Every time Sean uses that word I cringe thinking he sounds like an idiot who learned a new word. And he says it over and over and over. He must think it makes him sound real smart, but it actually does the opposite, in my opinion.

ping to 39 ;)

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

No probs. :)

[FrdmLvr]

He just loves interviewing himself, doesn’t he?

[Bullish]

Bill Handle sucks big time. I remember during Clinton’s impeachment he would go on and on about how much he literally hated Linda tripp and Kenneth Starr, even to the point of wishing them dead.

Handle’s a big fat A-hole.

[Mr. Mojo]

I can’t watch Shep. ...or Geraldo. I can tolerate some of the other FNC hosts for short periods of time, but not those two.

[mylife]

I feel the same way.

[upsdriver]

We can only wish he was as humble and entertaining as Ted Baxter.

[mikeandike]

He reminds me of a 16 year old who thinks he knows and has the answer for everything, but never got to the point where he realizes he is completely wrong about everything.

"Every time Sean uses that word I cringe thinking he sounds like an idiot who learned a new word. And he says it over and over and over. He must think it makes him sound real smart, but it actually does the opposite, in my opinion."

I wouldn't knock Sean for that. I believe his heart is in the right right place. He just needs to keep Juan Williams and Bob Beckel in the background or better yet off the air. No matter what Sean says they are not nice people.

[SoCalPol]

Give Laura Ingraham the BOR time slot.

[fish hawk]

By doing that, you missed Bernie Goldberg bitch slapping John Stuart (the Daily Show) yesterday. Throwing the baby out with the bathwater was never my way to solve things. And on Wednesdays he always has Dennis Miller on and he is always a hoot.

[Arthur McGowan]

When someone gets stuck in the y’know rut, it’s because he’s decided to run his mouth non-stop—and then tries to think of things to say.

It would be so refreshing to hear a moment of silence on TV—a few seconds during which the people carrying on the conversation took a few moments to THINK.
