O'Really Still Smarting From Obama Interview

[kpete]

LOL.

O'Reilly Unloads On 'Weasel,' 'Beneath Contempt' WaPo Columnist Dana Milbank :

But O'Reilly hasn't responded well to even the faintest criticism of his interview. On Tuesday, he blasted the Associated Press for its characterization of the interview.

"The Associated Press, their headline of the interview was: ‘President Obama Defends Himself from Republican Charges,'" O'Reilly said on "Fox and Friends." "These aren't questions that all Americans should be interested in? No. Just Republicans should be."

Obama himself made note of O'Reilly's choice of questions, arguing that Fox's top host is "absolutely" unfair in his coverage.

1. He craves respect to go along with his money

Poor baby.

[UTUSN]

6. "craves respect" nails it. After bouncing from the "real" networks. & his co-craver Bahbwah WAHWAH

Both of them are TRUMP-level self-promoters, all craving legitimacy and respect. O'LOOFAH is so self-deluded that it's at an incredible level. He claims to be "a war correspondent" (Falkland Islands). At CBS he claims he did all the work on a HUGH!1 story but the network flew in Bob SCHIEFFER to "bigfoot" him (taking the air/face time away from him). He's a 1950s White Catholic hung-up male who verbally and emotionally abuses others. His attack-rhetoric is pathetic: "cowards ... beneath contempt ... " He hates us internetters.

[BeyondGeography]

10. He's a historian, too, ya know

Christianity, Lincoln...there is no limit to what he (and his team) can churn out.

[caledesi]

21. Amen to that. VG! nt

[Fred Sanders]

2. Fox News Talking Heads are one trick ponies riding the angry beast towards the Xanadu of Victimhood.

[Justice]

3. Please proceed O'Reilly

Bill got Obama-Ed

[Fumesucker]

4. OReilly is used to controlling the conversation and the environment

Just like Limbaugh he's helpless in an even contest where he doesn't have the capability of shutting the other person up or talking over them.

[Populist_Prole]

16. Bingo. That's really what it comes down to

Browbeaters gotta browbeat. Preachers gotta preach.

[caledesi]

22. Yeah. a BIG Bingo! nt

[underpants]

28. As I commented to friends about Obama's SOTU speech

What you are seeing is Obama outside the media filter. Hearing directly from him and not people talking ABOUT him and on Fox News flat out making things up

[MannyGoldstein]

5. The President did a good job in the interview

Doing the interview was a bad idea, but he did a good job once there.

[madokie]

7. I thought so too

Methinks President O has had about all the shit he's going to be taking.

[progressoid]

8. Awww. Somebody has a boo boo.

[justhanginon]

14. He needs nine more

to cover all his knuckles. He is and always will be a knuckle dragging loudmouth.

[hibbing]

18. hehehe..thanks for the laugh on this one

[caledesi]

23. Me thinks Michelle has a big influence on Barack...

she has "street smarts." PBO thought he could bring unity. Peeps on that side do not know the difference between kindness and hate, therefore you cannot sway them. That was coming from Michelle.

That's when PBO "took off the gloves"...IMO

[Liberal_Dog]

9. If O'Reilly Was Actually Proud Of The Interview He Conducted...

then what does it matter what anyone else says?

[Gothmog]

11. O'Reilly is an idiot and blowhard

He did a really bad interview and was called on it

[Coyotl]

12. Well, Bill-O broke the interupt-o-meter, if that was any indication!

[grahamhgreen]

13. Obama should not validate Faux News with interviews.

[Dustlawyer]

15. Normally I would agree, but with a huge audience he pointed out that their continued

coverage of made up controversies was unfair and wrong. He basically called bull shit to them all. Also, Bill is so obnoxious that he plays well only to dedicated RW nuts. The "Independants" were hopefully turned off by his lack of respect for the office, much less President Obama. Hopefully he gave some cover for a Democrats running for office vs. Obamacare. So what if the right got to see O'Reilly confront the President on their BS agenda.

[libdem4life]

25. Yes. Sorry but it looked like a scripted school yard dustup. Both cravenly seeking publicity.

[deaniac21]

33. Yup

[Cha]

36. Sorry, I ain't buying your continued lumping of the President in with

with Bill O'reilly. You know nothing about the President or you would know how ignorant that sounds.

[libdem4life]

40. Again, I disagree. He just lumped himself with Bill O'Reilly. Ignorant? Uninformed? Yeah, right.

[Cha]

42. Yeah ODS will do that to ya.

[libdem4life]

43. Oh, please. He made a mistake, granted a big one. I'm surely not the only one who noticed.

That's your definition of ODS...just a bit hysterical? How about OWS, and I don't mean Occupy...Obama Worship Syndrome? Of course, I'm just kidding, but hopefully the point is taken...and in good faith.

[Cha]

44. No "he" didn't make a mistake .. many get it.. you do not.

"He tried all the usual O'Reilly bullshit but the Pres wouldn't take the bait

The constant interruptions, the buzzwords (nanny state, self-reliance guy) are all designed to rattle the interviewee and take him off his game. And it usually works. But Obama just sat there and smiled at the asshole and occasionally batted his barbs right back at him.

O'Reilly came off looking not like a bully, just a wannabe tough guy who lacked the cojones to pull it off. The interview exposed how pitiful he actually is and he's angry that people have caught on."

"He[o'reilly] made a fool of himself and the Republican party in front of a much larger audience

Than what he's used to. Needless to say the criticism of him has been greater, and from more reputable sources than what he's used to as well. It's the choice he made. I fail to see why he's so upset by the outcome".

[libdem4life]

45. Yeah, I get it. Like my Dad used to say, in humor, there are two ways of looking at any

situation...my way and the wrong way.

Peace.

[Cha]

47. It's really okay that you don't get it.. there are so many who

do get the President and the interview..

MUST WATCH! Obama Exposes Fox News Bias in Contentious O’Reilly Interview (Video0

"One of the perks that the network airing the Super Bowl gets each year is the honor of conducting a pre-game interview with the president. And this year, it so happened to be the Fox network, with testy, overbearing Bill O’Reilly doing the interviewing, setting the stage for an interview that made for better television than the actual blowout of a game did."

snip//

O’Reilly: “Your detractors believe that you did not tell the world Benghazi was a terror attack because your campaign didn’t want that out. That’s what they believe.”

“They believe it because folks like you are telling them that,” Obama said. “These kinds of things keep on surfacing in part because you and your TV station will promote them,” he said.

Touchdown, Obama!

17. O'Reilly needs to take on 5th graders

or less.

[ladywnch]

32. what did 5th graders ever do to you????????

you're just mean!

no one should be subjected to him......except other Fox rats.


for the love of god man......Think of the Children!!!!!!!

[rurallib]

34. believe me there are some pretty tough 5th graders out there

been working with them lately. An O'Reilly won't stop these kids.

[William769]

19. Kick & recommended.

[tularetom]

[Cha]

38. thanks tularetom!

[Wounded Bear]

24. Repubs and Faux Noise have been working the refs for decades...

with their "liberal media bias" bullshit. It's long past time somebody exposed their crap.

Unfortunately, most of their supporters are hopeless. There will be plenty of people stroking O'Lielly's ego over this.

[Faygo Kid]

26. O'Reilly and his name calling

He's the one beneath contempt with his juvenile name calling.

[Cha]

37. But, but, but.. he's "on a jihad" against

the Wapo for journalistice integrity or some such shit.

[RAM49]

27. BENGHAZI /POPCORN

I'm-Benghazi-just-Benghazi-amazed-Benghazi-that Benghazi- wasn't-Benghazi
... his-Benghazi-every- Benghazi- other-Benghazi-word ! That was the script Roger Ailes gave him I imagine!


Oreilly is a human volcano of stupid questions and commentary,in my opinion.
Does anyone care how he spells his fracking name...good luck w/that if you do!

[underpants]

29. Why was he interviewed on other radio and TV shows???

He has one of each.

Why are reporters interviewed by other reporters anyway? Usually it is cheaper but in this case BillO was desperate to tell people what they had seen and, of course, to play victim AND declare victory at the same time.

[Mike Daniels]

48. If Fox News hosts didn't interview their fellow hosts

there would be about 30 minutes of dead air on those one hour programs. They can't get anyone but their fellow lemmings to appear on their shows so they have to interview each other.

[herding cats]

30. He made a fool of himself and the Republican party in front of a much larger audience

Than what he's used to. Needless to say the criticism of him has been greater, and from more reputable sources than what he's used to as well. It's the choice he made. I fail to see why he's so upset by the outcome.

[Cha]

39. Mahalo herding cats!

[butterfly77]

31. O'LIElly...

Can't handle the truth!

[Vattel]

35. Obama:O'Reilly::Nye:Ham

[mstinamotorcity2]

41. O Rotten can go

suck a lemon!!

[polichick]

46. Does Pres. Obama really need to keep validating Faux clowns?!
