I taped a segment on the O'Reilly Factor for airing tonight to defend Free Republic against charges that it is a hate site. The segment will air in the 'D block' around 8:35 p.m. EDT and rerun at 11 p.m. and 4 a.m. EDT.
Rather than tell how it went, I'll leave it for folks to watch and decide for themselves. I hope I did right by FR.
We'll be having company tonight as some of Bill O'Reilly's two million-plus viewers check out FR for themselves. So please bear that in mind as you comment tonight. The Daily Kos is waging a very nasty personal campaign of retribution against O'Reilly. No sense in us piling on. Let's use this as an opportunity to show people why FR is the best conservative site on the web.
In case you didn’t see Kristinn Taylor interviewed on O’Reilly, the video is now up on the Fox News site.
Here’s the link and then just look for Kristinn Taylor's photo, then click on that.

Bill O’Reilly interrupts too much. Oh how, he loves to hear himself talk! I have never heard such talk on FR and I have been a member since 2000. I have seen some posts pulled and thats a good thing. I have watched Bill a lot but I have never seen him talk about Free Republic like I just viewed. Makes my blood boil......Free Republic is “my place”, a place I come everyday because I find what I want here. And I love I love Free Republic.
Let's not forget the Michelle Malkin Factor:
Nor the Harris Faulkner Factor:
"We"? ...don't speak for me. EVER! That comment is BS. (It's "we're" by the way)
My post about pigs only had to do with Muslim attempts to censor non-Muslims.
No. It is a way of pursuading the intellectually weak to avoid coming here to begin with. After all Bill is on record supporting Dan Rather though Memogate, whereas FR and friends were able to prove fraud without any shread of doubt.
Bill, as I am learning is a fraud. This I did not know until last night. My mistake. As an example right now I am waiving several papers together proving Bill uses the N word in private conversations all the time. I won't show them to you or Bill, you just have to believe me. Oh, and I'll make sure you get a copy in the morning. (BS!!)
(secret thoughts in the mind of a liberal)
///oh no I’ve said something controversial, I hate not being accepted, they might be right. must look deep deep inside to determine what I am doing wrong that would have led someone to not like me even for a second. maybe Bill is not a fraud maybe I am the fraud. oh no. oh no. should I apologize to Bill and everyone for my reckless commments. if I do surely the group will bring be back into the fold and once again love me for me.///
Man, that was hard to write, but most definitely what Bill is hoping to achieve with his midget mindtrick. That IS what he doesn’t get. We are all way beyond shame tactics of the left.
He looks so rediculous right now. I can’t wait to see what he produces as copies of those evidence “sheets” he would not give Kristinn last night. I hope it gets investigated and he is made to apologize for his false witness.
Freep ‘em hard.
That was great!
The problem is that there are just as many left swinging bloggers out there giving Kudos to BO.
And I’m not seeing any of the big guns coming out for us. Bill Bennett didn’t touch it, I’m waiting for Laura to come on.
We’ll see.
Showing up on his lawn and posting signs about “pervert” living there because of the law suit that O’Reilly had settled with an employee about two years ago. One of the posts on this thread has the photos from Kos.
:o)
Mr. O'Reilly,
As a current member in good standing of FreeRepublic.com and a personal friend of the founder, Mr Jim Robinson, a Naval Veteran and Patriot,
I hereby DEMAND that you post the titles of the threads on which the hate speech was posted,
the date of the original post, the screennames of the posters, and the sign-up dates.
(Mouse pointer over name will display sign-up date)
You were belligerent, over bearing and disrespectful to Mr Kristinn Taylor, (who is also a personal friend of mine), and I take exception to it.
You never mentioned Democratic Underground which contains some of the most vile, disgraceful, slanderous posts with four letter words
the prevelant means of expressing displeasure, and which are never removed unless the poster is found to be more conservative than Howard Dean.
Then they are banned forever
Sincererly,
Bob

What's the alternative? You can't talk over a guy like O'Reilly without shouting and looking like a deranged nut (and giving the viewer a headache). Kristinn made a more important point by keeping his composure.

Nice letter
I hope Bill O’Reilly gets inundated with responses similar to yours.
Well done, kristinn. Bill is uninformed, unfortunately.
I believe that BOR doesn’t understand the blogosphere, and self proclaimed doesn’t go online that much at all.
A couple days ago on BOR, someone mentioned that he never goes after the conservative websites, I believe this is why we may have seen Kristinn on the show (i could be wrong) just so BOR could take a slap at a conservitive site as well to show balance on his program. He didn’t give Kristinn a chance to explain anything, just wanted to give him a slap.
As stated BOR did say that the left blogs are far worse that what he’s seen on FR. However, he is basing his whole fight against Kos on posts and photos made by single individuals, which in my opion do relay the agenda of their site, so he is right in doing so.
The appearance on BOR by a representive of a right leaning website was solely an attempt by BOR to show he is “fair and balanced.” But he should first do some research before opening his mouth, IMO. If you want to find a derrogatory post on a blog, you’re going to find one. But it is the principle, character, and agenda of the site that is most important.
Thank you for this link!
I have sent him my thoughts. As a mother of a US soldier, I get so much support from the Canteen and all of the other prayer warriors on this site.
How sad BOR could not have represented the positive aspects of this website, but rather, used a few comments pulled out of context to engage in his fight with the daily kos.
I expect an apology.
