Why is Bill O'Reilly so interested in protecting Jackson?

He's not.

He's teasing for a larger audience -- down the road. He'll milk this for all it's worth.

amazing how everything — that’s e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g — somehow is reported as “helping” Obama.

Did any of the Drive-Bys (other than Fox) report on Barry wanting our kids to learn Spanish. If that was reported, or made into an ad, it would be game over.

I think it was a set up and Fox News took the bait.
It was all done to make Obama look less black and more moderate , too try and broaden his appeal among whites.

For the same reason he had Medea Benjamin on twice within a week. For the same eason he kisses Al Sharptongue's butt. For the same reason h likes that racist Marc Lamont Hill. For the same reason he continues to waste air time on Geraldo even after Gearaldo threatened to "piss" on Michelle Malkin's head. (It chased Michelle away, but Geraldo is still a regular.)

A race baiting poverty pimp, to use the precise phrase. Which was too kind.

".."We cautiously and patiently went forward with the story," he said, adding that producers reached out to Jackson and Obama to let them know about the material..."

Why did they give Jackson a special break?

Bill O’Reilly isn’t protecting Jackson. Reread the story. It was the network that made the decision.

Bill O’Reilly isn’t in charge of the tape. It is a joint decision.

No kidding. If it was Dobson or Falwell making such comments, they would be played in entirety, hourly on every cable or network newscast.

Let’s see Fox be “fair and balanced” here.

The bigger question for me is...will the Secret Service show up at The Hustler’s front door to investigate this? Let anyone else proclaim a desire to injure a candidate under Secret Service protection and the silver bracelets come out...and rightly so. (Remember the woman in Chicago(?) who simply yelled to Clinton “you suck”, or something similar?)
