O'Really is just a good old fashioned opportunist. He posed as a conservative to get ratings, but that facade has been slipping as the years have gone by. He's rude to his guests (constantly interrupting and bloviating) and (as this issue shows) shoddy in his research. He's really just Chris Matthews with better ratings.

Thank you Melanie for providing an eloquent, substantive response to this poseur. I spent a year in Marin County and you and Lee (and OV) made each morning a pleasure.

There are times when I see questionable things, but I really don’t see us on FR comparable to KOS. He must have hunted for those quotes, because I’ve never seen anything like that.

By the way Bill, I don’t hate black people...actually have a few cousins that are. Plus I speak-out against that sort of garbage. I sort of wonder who made those comments.

Hey, I quit watching this guy a while back—but FoxNews could really be what they claim to be if they speakee sayonara to this boy.

He has little to say, and does more harm than he does good.
He, however, occupies a time slot that could be used more to the benefit of Fox and Americans.

Wake up, Fox!

Hello to BOR and his interns!

Mr. O’Reilly, you owe everyone on Free Republic an apology!

Is that pithy enough for you?

O’Reilly is threatened by a free republic. He hates free speech, unless it’s his own. Then he’ll charge you for it and then call you a “pinhead” if you dare disagree with him.

I’d like to see O’Reilly and Chris Matthews both locked in an air tight room and see who can use up all the oxygen first.

I think there is another angle here.

After O’Reilly revealed the poison on the DailyKos a few days ago, it is likely that Leftwing Trolls from KOS came here and posted inflammatory postings to make FreeRepublic look bad or to make DailyKos look better by comparison.
I do not think that there would be Bill Oreilly haters on this website, at least not many.

Check when these nasty postings(that Bill referred to) were made, what are their dates.
You’ll probably find most were posted just in the past week.

Well put Melanie. I would have been really surprised if Jim or another spokesperson at FR had let this comment go from O’Reilly. In general, he’s a good man and was very surprised he would ever compare the good works of FR with leftist sites full of confused, self-absorbed Americans.

Yep, BOR has gotten this site completely wrong. Shame on him.

I email BOR last night asking for the links he was referring to but haven’t heard anything back yet. Has anybody else heard back?

I think FreeRepublic should award a monthly 'Dan Blather Misrepresentation of Conservatives Award'. Freepers in good standing could nominate and vote for the biggest MSM bonehead each and every month ! What fun it would be to have a one dedicated thread each month.

Seeing that Bill O'Reilly pulled this boner in July, and it DOES illustrate a major attempt to 'balance' by misrepresentation, I feel BOR should be awarded the first monthy Award for July. What do you all think?

bill wants to be in the center.

he’s crossed swords with daily kos.

now he wants to balance things out with fr on the right.

problem: fr is not equivalent to daily kos.

To his credit, O’Reilly noted that the amount of controversial content at FreeRepublic pales in comparison to that which appears on a near-daily basis at DailyKos.

O'Reilly went on to add that they (at the Kos) seem to revel in hate.

If I were on with Bill I would've asked to see the posts in question. It seems from what I've seen so far, several of the "hate posts" turned out to be duds. That would've taken the air out of his charges right there. Bill does the same thing to Ann Coulter. He condemns left wing hate speech, but then says the right has it's own haters, too. Equating Ann Coulter with the crazies on the left.

Still, Bill O'Reilly uses his position as a national figure in a way that I'm thankful for. He goes after judges who are lenient on child abusers, he draws attention to the borders, he takes on the liberal media while he himself is a liberal.

It is intellectual laziness to equate Ann Coulter with the hate on the left just as it is to equate freerepublic with the Daily Kos. Perhaps, it comes naturally if you're a moderate Kool-Aid drinker?
