Is this conversation about news people who lie hitting too close to home, Billo? Making you squirm just a little bit?

Sunlight can be a powerful disinfectant. Too bad Fox viewers prefer to stay in the dark.

Exactly what I was thinking… he’s feeling the heat from this fire.

Why else would he defend an icon of the Liberal Media?

Yeah, what’s wrong with a little non-factual infotainment? Or, for that matter, what’s wrong with intentionally deceitful propaganda 24 hours a day, 7 days a week?

O'Reilly added a lot would depend on whether Williams was a serial fabulist. "If it's just one time, he'll get by," O'Reilly said. "But if it turns out there's a pattern of this, it's going to be hard for him to come back."

Sweet cheeses, BillO just short-circuited my irony meter.

I have to agree with Bill O on this one, everybody get off of Brian Williams back. I didn’t see this amount of outrage against Dick ( Darth Vader)Cheney and his lies cost lives!

Speaking of hitting close to home, O’Reilly falsely claimed to have won a Peabody Award . Or did he just disremember? .

Because, in the end, what’s a little serial lying in the service of cheerleading for war? I mean, if we start going after media figures for demonstrably false propaganda, the next thing you know, people will be demanding O’Loofah take responsibility for his perpetual bullshit machine.

“O’Reilly Defends Brian Williams”

Of course, Bill. You’re both self-aggrandizing self promoters.

We’ve all done resume inflation, but to fabricate stories of grace under fire is disgusting and disrespectful to the men and women who bled and died on battlefields.

And besides that, fuck you too.

the internet — and you know what it is, it’s a sewer — and these people delight in seeing famous people being taken apart. And I just think it’s wrong. I mean, we’re human beings

With Porsches…

“But if it turns out there’s a pattern of this, it’s going to be hard for him to come back.”

But if it turns out there’s a pattern of this, I can probably get him a job at Faux.

FIFY

"I mean, we’re human beings just like everybody else.”

When did Biklo become a human being?

18

I remember that. It and the loofah/sexual harassment incidents have made him infamous. The other crap is just an ongoing blur of faux newscast crap.

I’m shocked, shocked I tell you!
Billo admits to being human?
STOP THE PRESSES!!!ONE!!!
