Stupid? We are talking about the mushy independents. You know that infamous group that decides every election.
O'Reilly and his softball, man crush interview was paramount in dragging Obama over the finish line.
Perfect example. My husbands uncle. Older guy, very well off. Has owned his own business since my husband was a kid. Life long Republican. Fox News watcher. The kind of guy who is now public enemy number one in Obama's Amerika.
He voted for Obama in 2008.

First example of O’Reilly interviewing Obama was 2011.
The exception being, I’m sure O’Reilly, like all journalists, interviewed all the candidates in 2008. Just like they are doing this year.
So you’re telling me, if someone on FNC interviews Hillary, like MSNBC did Ted Cruz last night, that’s going to sway enough Republicans to give her the election.
If our voters are that wishy-washy, that willing to throw off their core values because of what one talking head said to a politician, then maybe our losses are self induced.
I also don’t understand why anyone would imagine Fox News is going to be 100% conservative 100% of the time. They have never billed themselves that way.
Seems like the only ones who believe that are liberals. Half of the people on this forum stay mad at FNC because they’re not all conservative.
The fact that we have the most watched Cable News programming and that for the most part they make our side of the argument look good by placing it in contrast to the other side isn’t enough.
BOR is who he is, like him or don’t, but to suggest one interview swung the election. I still say McCain had more to do with Obama’s election then all the media put together.
