Satire and hate speech: this is a satirist
Edited on Tue Nov-15-05 11:24 AM by sfexpat2000



This is a hate mongerer:




Over the weekend, O'Reilly defended his call for a terroris attack on San Francisco because 1) He is from New York and lost "dozens" of friends on 9/11 and 2) because "this is serious".

Now, he's claiming his remark was satire.

Was he lying then or is he lying now?

1. O'Reilly doesn't have the IQ to create Satire
So, he's lying....

This is hate speech:

"And if Al Qaeda comes in here and blows you up, we're not going to do anything about it. We're going to say, look, every other place in America is off limits to you , except San Francisco. You want to blow up the Coit Tower? Go ahead."

O'Reilly is no satirist. Doug and I make our living writing comedy, we recognize funny pretty easily.

NO AIR FOR O'REILLY!
