Bill's just jealous of Jim Robinson, who is secure enough to let thousands of people voice their opinions in depth on his website.

O'Reilly rarely lets anyone discuss anything in depth and prefers "pithy" statements from his viewers.

You might want to consider the fact that O'Reilly has a one hour show, five days a week. Keeping it "pithy" seems to be an intelligent decision when one is under such time constraints.

Mr. Robinson has his forum open for comments 24/7/365. As for being secure enough to let thousands of people voice their opinions in depth..........well, reading is your friend. ;)

The point of this thread is that O'Reilly allowed Davis's nasty comment about the mindset of FReepers to go unchallenged

Am I supposed to conclude that Big Bill O'Reilly couldn't find 30 seconds in his one-hour show, to question the validity of Davis's comment?

My question is: Could either man survive a real forum, where folks discuss issues in depth like folks do on Free Republic?

Could either man survive a real forum where people can express their ideas without interruption, but often find it necessary to back up their posts?
