FOX'S BILL O'REILLY SPOOKS THE STARS /Al-Jazeera Broadcasting DNC Convention
New York Post - Page Six ^ | 7/30/04 | Richard Johnson with Paula Froelich and Chris Wilson

Posted on 07/29/2004 11:49:17 PM PDT by kattracks

BILL O'Reilly's on-air showdown with lefty hero Michael Moore may have pro vided the biggest fireworks of the care fully crafted coronation known as the Democratic National Convention, so it's no surprise that the Fox News Channel star caused a stir at the Creative Coalition bash at Louis Boston the other night. PAGE SIX's Chris Wilson reports O'Reilly seemed like a skunk at the picnic in the VIP section, where diehard Dems Leon ardo DiCaprio, Ben Affleck, Bianca Jagger, Richard Schiff, Billy Bal dwin, Alyssa Milano, Ellen Burstyn and Richard Kind passed through during a performance by the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Just minutes before a drunken party goer would heckle him for his right-leaning views, O'Reilly told us he didn't feel uncomfortable. "I'm an independent," O'Reilly of fered. "I represent all points of view."

WE HEAR . . .

THAT former candidate Howard Dean was bounced when he tried to horn in on a chat between Tom Daschle and U2's Bono in a private meeting room under the stage at the Prudential Center . . . THAT the DNC made Al-Jazeera take down its banner at the Fleet Center even though the Arab TV network is broadcasting 90 minutes of coverage a night to viewers in the Middle East, more than any of the big American networks.

BAD TABLE

SUSAN Estrich threw a hissy fit Wednesday when she learned that her assigned seat at a cozy little Tina Brown lunch at Radius wasn't next to somebody glamorous, but a Secret Service agent. Sources say that Brown's exclusive gathering in honor of Hillary Clinton was overbooked and that Estrich wasn't even invited. But she walked in and asked for a seat, insisting she'd RSVP'd. Estrich, a familiar TV talking head, took a look at the agent next to her and told staff that unless she had a better companion, she would walk out. "Bye bye," they said, and Estrich beat a hasty retreat.

TOP KERRY DONOR'S MAFIA PAL

A SCANDAL might be brewing in John Kerry's camp over revelations that his biggest donor, billionaire playboy Steve Bing, has close ties to a Mafia hitman.

Bing, who inherited a $600 million real estate fortune courtesy of his grandfather, Leo Bing, has amassed over $16 million for the Democrats. He has donated $8.1 million to groups that are creating and airing anti-George Bush TV ads, according to Variety.

Now, ABC News reports that one of Bing's close friends is Dominic Montemarano, a.k.a. Donnie Shacks, a New York-based Mafia hit man who did 12 years in prison on racketeering charges and is currently serving four years for domestic violence.

With your support, they won't make a single significant movie in the next ten years either.

These spoiled undeserving untalented hacks should be proud to relinquish their roles henceforth to provide work for some of those impacted by the Bush economy.

At least, that works for me.

The heirs and family of the great Beniamino Gigli (famous tenor of the early 20th century) should sue J-Lo and Affleck for slandering their good name.

Heck, being near O'Reilly was probably the most publicity any of them have gotten in the last five years.
