‘Worst Person’: Fox News ‘expert’ on O’Reilly (Is there a Julie Banderas Fan Club?)

MSNBC ^ | 2/1/07 | Keith Olbermann

[teddyballgame]

But the winner, correspondent Julie Banderas of Fox noise channel, appearing on Bill O’Reilly’s yuck fest last night as a guest expert on TV news. This is a woman who two years ago was covering toilets overflowing on the local newscast. She explained, "NBC has lost over two million viewers since Peter Jennings stepped down and then Tom Brokaw, his show has lost about, I don’t know, two million viewers."

Actually Tom retired more than two years ago and the fall off since then has been, at worst, negligible. And Peter Jennings was on ABC, not NBC, and he passed away.

This makes Miss Banderas exactly the kind of expert Bill-O loves. Julie, does the red light mean the camera is on or off? Banderas, Wednesday's Worst Person in the World.

I bet Olbermann has a special O'Reilly sock that he only takes out at bedtime.

[Sans-Culotte]

I hate to agree with Loserman, but O'Reilly does seem to just settle for a warm body sometimes as an "expert" on his show.

[darkwing104]

He's so jealous....

[soupcon]

Sometimes O'Rielly makes it too easy for Olbermann.

[pennboricua]

With 270,000 people watching his show, this man needs some Guerilla marketing his constant harping about Fox news is just not working.

[rintense]

And this from a guy who made jokes on ESPN? PKB.

[jrooney]

Loserman is far worse and a joke is a commentator. If he is the best NBC can get to be a political pundit (Chrissy Mathews is just as bad - must be from the same mother), they are deep poo poo.

Julie, does the red light mean the camera is on or off?

Redlight probably reminds her of her last job.

[jrooney]

Ratings speak volumes. Olbermann is in the basement with his girlfriend Chrissy Mathews and they aren't coming out. Most people do not buy their liberal partisan reporting amd whining.

[razzle]

What surprised me most about that segment on O'Reilly was Banderas (who was praised here on FR a while back as a real conservative) stating that Katie Couric is doing poorly because of her gender, that the American public is not "ready yet" for a female news anchor.

[edpc]

Peter Jennings was on ABC, not NBC, and he passed away.

He was on ABC, but it's not like he died while on air, Keith. He did his final ABC WNT show on April 1, 2005 and died on Aug 7, 2005.

[bert]

Fear and envy. The green eyed monster raises it's ugly head at the king of the losers.

Julie is frequently on as substitute for John Gibson where she presents a solid conservative view. She is a browneyed hottie and having been given the opportunities she has, is certain to make those standing in linefor a shot at the big time for years at NBC really pissed.

"With 270,000 people watching his show, this man needs some Guerilla marketing his constant harping about Fox news is just not working."

Maybe an Olberman neon light somewhere? I love the war going on between Fox and MSNBC (O'Reilly vs. Olberman) and Fox and CNN (Fox Ad calls Anderson Cooper the Paris Hilton of news). The gloves have come off as Fox smokes out the other cable stations as the liberal shrills they are.

[wideawake]

Um, Keith, Jennings did step down.

He didn't die on the air midbroadcast.

[teddyballgame]

A browneyed hottie indeed!!!!!

[Robert A Cook PE]

My, my.

Such liberal "tolerance" .... And dedication to accuracy by the supposed experts in the MSM.

Ole Keithie is, what, averaging more than two personal insults and snipes per sentence in this little diatribe?

[eyedigress]

What? To clean up with?

[dhs12345]

Na, na, n-na, na. You can't catch Fox News.
