    Interesting. Not many comments from the fox news crowd. Given all the comments people had about Brian Williams. Where's the O'Reilly cartoons?

    Because oriley is on fox and a right winger, he's considered tuff and beyond reproach on the subject of war.

    Buenos Aires was a wild place back in the early 80s

    Only liberals watch Fox News. Hope this helps. Reilly is a cable talk show host like Sharpton. Not a big three anchor

    So that excuses him lying. Because no one watches him. Got it. I thought I read somewhere that fox news was the most watched news channel or something.

    You've said some stupid shit, but this one takes the cake.

    HOLD on a second, are you trying to say someone said something on a cable news channel claimed a story that wasn't true and sensationalized. That's just not possible.

    Did I excuse him for lying? Can I get a link on that? I didn't read the article and I don't watch his show. I didn't say no one watches him I said only liberals watch him.

    Care to try again?

    Most salient point made. Not sure why it is so hard to understand the difference between opinion and hard news. Big and obvious difference, but this generation doesn't seem to understand that. Most get their "news" from comedy central. We are so fucked.

    Read your original post. You state that he is on cable news so his lie doesnt matter.

    Comprehension can be your friend.

    Keep making excuses for O'Reilly. It's OK for you side to lie. Just admit it.

    Williams was relied on as the reputable face of an entire network to be trustworthy as he delivered facts to the audience.

    O'Reilly is an entertainer, whose goal is to inspire controversy and ratings.

    If you can't see there's a difference, please go to Iraq and defame ISIS.

    Making excuses. A lie is a lie. Both are faces of a news network. The Tag line for fox news is "the most trusted news network", " we report, you decide ", " fair and balanced ".
