CBS Ordered O'Reilly to Leave Argentina for Risking Life of Cameraman.

When Doyle informed O'Reilly that Schieffer would be doing the report, which would not include any segment from O'Reilly, the reporter exploded. "I didn't come down here to have my footage used by that old man," he shouted. Doyle was stunned. First O'Reilly had defiantly ordered a cameraman to disregard his orders on using lights, and now he was claiming the right to do a story the producers had decided should be done by the senior correspondent on the scene, Schieffer. This confrontation led the next day to O'Reilly being ordered out of Argentina by the CBS bosses. Doyle had told them O'Reilly was a "disruptive force" who threatened his bureau's morale and cohesion.

I have one infinitely more entertaining, with far greater dangers and much more violence, that revolves around acquisition of some illegal hooch. Like everything about this clown, even his "War Story" is strictly BOR-ing.
