Olbermann: O'Reilly's people repeatedly have called management, pleading with us to stop

http://www.radaronline.com/features/2006/12/olbermann.php

<snip>

What's the Post's motivation in printing that item?

I've called out the New York Post about the FBI thing and obviously Fox about the O'Reilly stuff. There have been repeated calls from O'Reilly's people—he's never done it himself—repeated calls to NBC management and MSNBC management pleading with us to stop. And basically the answer has been that we're only reacting to what they're doing, so if they stop we'll be happy to stop, because there won't be a story there and nobody will care.

1. Hey Bill - want any cheese with that whine?
WAAH

Didn't he realize after his lawsuit against Franken for "Lying Liars" that giving the competition publicity is usually not good for O'Reilly?

6. So Bill wants to continue being the worst person in the world
but he doesn't want anyone to comment on the fact he is being bad.

The connection between the two just doesn't click in his brain.

21. Bill reminds me of an unpopular middle-schooler
who is carrying grudges for slights he experienced decades ago.
He's still got it out for the popular kids and just can't let go.
Sorry you didn't go to prom, Bill-O.
Sorry you didn't make the football team.
Or whatever it was that is still gnawing out your insides.
The man is relentless in his pursuits. And crushes. He just can't shut up about George Clooney. And he ranted for weeks when Hillary's book topped his on the bestseller lists. He kept trying to skew the numbers to show he wasn't getting his butt kicked. By a girl.
He even went after a publisher whose newspaper made fun of him by asking his audience to call and write the guy with complaints. Trouble was, the publisher was dead. Had been for years.
But, then, facts never get in Bill-O's way.
(like his infamous blaming of WWII vets for slaughtering Nazis (his explanation for why Haditha was just one of those things)in Belgium when, right, it was the Nazis who slaughtered the American POWs in a field. Oops.

29. Bill's a bully
Like all bullies, nothing is ever his fault, nothing is ever caused by him, it's all inflicted on him.

His ability to lie and then lie about his lies so blithely makes me honestly wonder if the guy isn't a sociopath.

19. Has Bill O'Reilly apologized yet for misattributing the Malmedy Massacre?
Or has he tried to bury that under the carpet?

22. What cry babies! While other people all over the world weep for
murder and mayhem caused by themselves and more immediately by their sinister paymasters, they grizzle and run to Mummy bawling their eyes out. "Please tell him to stop, Mummy! Whenever I hit him, he hits me twice!"

23. Olbermann is just following Adlai Stevenson's advice
"I have been thinking that I would make a proposition to my Republican friends... that if they will stop telling lies about the Democrats, we will stop telling the truth about them." - Adlai E. Stevenson
