The Fonz jumping the shark was an indicator of creative vacuum..
O'Reilly knows nothing of FR OR CARES.. Andy Rooney don't really care either..
O'Reilly and Rooney are dung beetles.. interesting only because of what they are rolling smells like.. Their shows/act's ask you to pull their fingers.. or smell it..
The whole reason O’Rielly attacked Free Republic is to appear “balanced” when he attacked the Daily Kos. I think this whole balance thing has gone to his head. Sometimes balance is unnecessary because some problems require only one answer: the correct one. The whole Fox News network should just drop the obsession with balance and just say what they believe. Aren’t we far enough away from the Depression and the Civil Rights eras that we can truly exercise free speech?
I heard someone accuse a FReeper of posting that on O'Reilly, but I've never seen any posts against any race.
Behaviors, though, are fair game. They're a "choice."
Interesting. How about citing some posts so we can figure out what you find offensive? I’ve been posting here for about 6 years, and lurking two or three more, and I’ve found it necessary to hit the abuse button about 4 time, IIRC.
I’ve been involved in some pretty acrimonious threads, too.
BUMP
Exactly. . .and no stats as the 'per' negative ratio to the good; or just 'reasoned'. . .responses, either.
Had their been; then FR could not have been so unfairly offered as the 'Right's' packaged hate as is the Left's Daily Kos. You do not have to search for degradation, Kos style when you visit.
Would offer that O'Reilly 'research staff' needed to use FR 'search mode' to find their information. . .and obviously embellished a bit a well; because they needed to.
The only other "Lanny" I can recall was a kid I went to grade school with. I moved across the state and he went on to become the DA of Sheboygan County. He became (in)famous for his relentless prosecution of a single male high school teacher for "fornication". The evidence being that the teacher had left his vehicle parked in front of a single woman's home overnight.
Playboy made a big splash and came to the teachers defense. I believe that he was fired by the school district and left for quieter surroundings.
To this day the name Lance (Lanny) calls to mind a nasty little prig that uses the law for a club.

Some people, on both sides, take themselves far too seriously. This, like almost every other verbal and written shouting match, is more about ego polishing than it is about content.
