Your theory would be correct if this had been Sean, Rush, Brit, or some other right leaning person of media power. O'Really is a self-proclaimed middle of the road guy. Bill will now find out that you have no allies in the middle..because they who stand in the middle of the road often get run over. His lack of respect for Swifties and his pissing off lefties too...has left him alone. This is not about Fox News...this is about Bill O'Really...and Fox should give him a leave of absence until this is cleared up...or prepare to can him. And soon. Sorry...no sympathy for the no spin man here. He lost my support long ago. In fairness...if innocent...he owns them.
The theory is correct. Look at the complaint. It links O'Reilly and FOX to Bush and compassionate conservatism. Truth doesn't matter, it is the image that they create that counts. They will not get the faithfull Fox viewers to change from Bush to Kerry over this but there are a lot of voters out there that THINK FOX/BUSH/CONSERVATISM/O'Reilly are all the same and if O get's hit it is a hit on FOX and a hit on Bush and a hit on conservatives and votes for Kerry.

Gee, careful there Dan Rather... errr I mean fella. You sound like the womans legal DNC defense team.
