A challenge for all Bush-Haters

[Hoshiko]

That's awesome that you brought up that interview.  I saw that one.  It was when I was first starting to get into O'Reilly.  That kid was a piece of shit.  I was laughing my ass off when he did that.  What can I say.  We obviously have different takes on this one.  I'll admit that sometimes he interupts people too much and does other various things that are ignorant.  What I do like is that he is no holds barred on investigating issues and has no problem putting blame where it lies and correcting errors.  He does a good job reporting, regardless if you like his interview tactics.

It's interesting that you think this. I also listen to Bill O'Reilly from time to time and I remember that months after the interview he completely denied telling that man to shut up. I believe his words were "And you know, I have alot of people, mostly on the internet, on these websites, that say that I like to tell people to shut up, that I don't let people speak, and I would like to say that I get excited sometimes but I never tell people to shut up. If you listen to me you know that I always try to be fair, and I would like to see them try to come up with specific instances where I have said this..."

Two months later, when the transcripts began floating around on the internet, this had somehow changed to "And I've been excited at times and lost my temper when people are slandering my country, and I might have told people to shut up maybe twice in my career..."

How do I know this? Because I actually have these contradictory points on tape somewhere. This man is not a journalist in the traditional sense of the word. If you like him and listen to him, that's fine. But you shouldn't expect him to act like a journalist, and you should keep in mind that he's putting his opinions out there in the best possible light with some cites when he has them, and alot of smokescreens when he doesn't. His standards are lower, and I wouldn't call what he does reporting.

He's also a control freak when it comes to interviews with those who don't share his "patriotic ideals", and if you think otherwise you're fooling yourself.

That kid was a piece of shit.

He had a different opinion. He was not a piece of shit. Does not agree with you /= piece of shit. Of course, those who run out of debate points sometimes lose their tempers and call people pieces of shit and tell them to shut up, but that's a weakness, and it's something you should try to control. Especially if you're a radio host.

TOOBIS! I love you, man! Where you been?

Forget the Hoshi show, we should have the Toobis network. All Toobis, all the time. O'Reilly could do the weather for him or something.

This proves exactly everything! Can't get more authorative than this!

Here it is. On page 46 of the transcript:
