1. ????

[Glassunion]

2. David Corn... Is that GMO?

[Rex]

3. Shithead declared a fatwa on Corn?

I'm telling ya, O' Blowhard is losing it...more...maybe we've reached his Glenn Beck moment where he swears Obama is Satan and haunts his dreams.


My career! Boo hoo! What happen to me? Obama's fault! Boo hoo!


Join me Billy O! I get lonely on my cable station. Nobody visits me anymore.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

5. He said Corn should be "put in a kill zone".

[Rex]

14. Sounds like an implied threat.

Which mean he is reaching his limit imo. Bill O Reilly has led a very sheltered life with filtered news and cut mics on the set. He won't be able to handle going outside for much longer.

He could barely contain himself simply eating a meal with Al Sharpton in a resteruant in Harlem in 2007;

"Discussing his recent dinner with Rev. Al Sharpton at the Harlem restaurant Sylvia's, Bill O'Reilly reported that he "couldn't get over the fact that there was no difference between Sylvia's restaurant and any other restaurant in New York City. I mean, it was exactly the same, even though it's run by blacks, primarily black patronship." O'Reilly added: "There wasn't one person in Sylvia's who was screaming, 'M-Fer, I want more iced tea.' "

The man is white privilege to a T. The poster boy for angry white assholes that have no idea what they are angry about.

4. Not only am I not offended, I'm enjoying every millisecond of it

especially the part where decades' worth of ex-minions have ganged up on him and unleashed their impacted rage. (Be good to those you meet on the way up, because you'll meet them again on the way back down.)

I'm enjoying this because NONE of it would be happening if Billo hadn't given in to kicking Brian Williams while he was down. His fatwa is actually one he has called upon HIMSELF.

32. I'm with you on that one. I've seldom enjoyed a pile-on so much.

Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. Nothing bad will happen to Corn and Bill-o's lack of impulse control is a beautiful thing to see.

[ZX86]

6. Not really.

I stopped being offended at that clown years ago. I think around the time The Colbert Report came on.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

15. FOX viewers are morons but what if one decides to leave his mom's attic and harm Corn?

[WhaTHellsgoingonhere]

7. Same as you! Not at all

[hrmjustin]

8. I am but even more offended by Fox's silence on it.

[R B Garr]

11. Rachel read a statement by Fox News tonight. They can't be bothered

with responding to all the allegations from the likes of Mother Jones, etc. Pathetic.

[hrmjustin]

13. She was on fire tonight.

They would be the first to complain and yell liberal media if it was another new organization.

[rocktivity]

26. She was on fire indeed

16. But that's the point -- this all started because Billo didn't believe

that MSNBC had "bothered" to punish Williams enough! Fox HAS to be silent because the alternative obliges them to punish Bill -- hypocrisy much?

[R B Garr]

19. Okay, I see what you mean. Williams was suspended and shamed,

but that's not enough. I wasn't online much last week so I missed some of the Williams dustups. That does explain the extra weirdness I noticed about Bill's reactions to being called a liar going back years now. Nothing to see here, just move on.

[R B Garr]

9. O'Reilly skates by with impunity, yet Olberman is suspended for a week

because of a Twitter fight with some Penn State fans. Fox can't be bothered with verifying all the allegations, so we can all drop dead. Just don't piss off the college football fans. Ridiculous.

Corn was great on Rachel tonight.

[UTUSN]

10. Yes yes yes *and* enjoying it despite no consequences. n/t

[elleng]

12. I might be, if it were really a fatwa.

It ain't. See what Lawrence O'Donnell said about it:

'What's he got? A tv show, that's IT!'

[femmocrat]

20. Well.... true, but...

he also has plenty of crazy wingnut followers. I think O'Donnell was being generous by saying it was just an "Irish thing".

[DemocratSinceBirth]

22. See Post 15./NT

[Fumesucker]

17. There's a German word or two I can think of to describe how I feel about O'Reilly..

Backpfeifengesicht is one of them..

[Phlem]

30. ooh, ooh,

I saw one on Grimm the other day, it was a giant bag of putrid filth that floats next you then explodes! Not a pretty sight.

They killed pretty quick though by opening a library book.

[Cha]

18. I'll say yeah.. but, we have to consider that the mofo source is offensive just being.

[NuclearDem]

21. It's spelled falafwa.

[Quantess]

23. Other: it barely registers on my "give a shit" meter.

It's an extremely weak reading, but it's closer to yes than no.

[840high]

24. No. More important things

on my plate.

[Fred Sanders]

25. Not much more important than taking down Bilbo and treasonous Fox with him....not sure why you disagree.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

34. I have to go with Fred here

Journalists threatening other journalists is extremely bad form.

[bigwillq]

27. Nope (nt)

[Skittles]

28. it's about time someone put the laser beam on that lying piece of shit bully

and it's NO SURPRISE he cannot handle it - fuck him and his fake news network

[Phlem]

29. I'm offended by Bill O' Reilly period.

But I think his show passes as infotainment and not news like John Stewart's Daily show passes as infotainment although most of us know better.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

31. I am. David Corn is a great guy. He was a champion for lots

of things we believe in deeply here. He is on our side and we should be offended
and we should be outraged and we should be organizing an email campaign to
flood Fox with complaints. Oh yea, forgot, this ain't 2004

[freshwest]

33. Rec, but not voting. Offended isn't the word I'd use. Sick. Worried about Corn's safety.

And that of his family. The mob Brillo infectes with his fascisms haven't got any boundaries. None.

Corn is a public figure. This is not the first time Goebbels O'Reilly has incited people to break the law or harm others.
