Seriously defending that loudmouth O’Reilly? Just because of who the accuser is? O’Reilly is an idiot. I can’t watch that show. Everythings about him. He has the same ego as Obama.
What you say is true. But that’s no reason to slime him a la Corn.
How would you like it were it done to you?
BOR is an uninformed, un-watchable blowhard, but he is not a liar.

What Bill O’Reilly has said about his time during the Falklands War
2/20/2015

“2001: O’Reilly wrote in his book “The No Spin Zone: Confrontations with the Powerful and Famous in America,” that his time covering war made him ready for anything. “You know that I am not easily shocked.” he wrote. “I’ve reported on the ground in active war zones from El Salvador to the Falkland Islands.”
“2008: During an interview on his Fox News show, O’Reilly once again described the protest, but said it took place “In a war zone in Argentina, in the Falklands.”
O’Reilly responded to David Corn’s pointing out of these inaccuracies by saying on Fox News, Bill O’Reilly Talking Points Memo, 20/20/2015, “A Response to Mother Jones”:
“I never said I was on the Falkland Islands as Corn purports. I said I covered the Falklands War, which I did.”
From A & B to C to D to E vis-à-vis slight of hand? from Bill O’Reilly:
A and B.)
A.) “I’ve reported on the ground in active war zones...in the Falkland Islands.”
B.) “In a war zone in Argentina, in the Falklands.”
C.) “I never said I was on the Falkland Islands as Corn purports. I said I covered the Falklands War, which I did.”
Then to D:
D.) Here is the war zone (or riot?) tape from Argentina!
E.) See, I really did cover a war zone in Argentina!
But what seems to be gone is O’Reilly dealing with his statements in 2001 and 2008, which CNN pointed out.
Then come in the RINO’s pitting a left-winger (Corn) against a CINO (conservative in name only) and saying that those who look at what O’Reilly said back in 2001 and 2008 and take issue with it, question if what he said is ALL true, and so on are siding with a left winger (David Corn)!!!
Rally the troops!, circle the wagons!, talk then follows, while ignoring the irony that O’Reilly is hardly a conservative.
Brian Williams may be the last news anchor, reporter, journalist, etcetera (on either side of the political aisle) that will do what Brian Williams did as they will probably do what O’Reilly did.
O’Reilly is a dumb blowhard, but Corn is a lying communist. Take your pick.
