What a hateful shit head.

I can never hear a word he says because I can't get the image of him drunk dialing an employee with a vibrator shoved in his grommet out of my head every time I see his smarmy face.

Uglier than a muddy shovel dumber than a bag of hammers

Gaaahhh I hate Fox

Now I can't!


I remember the time he had dinner with Al Sharpton in Harlem:

During the September 19 edition of his nationally syndicated radio program, discussing his recent trip to have dinner with Rev. Al Sharpton at Sylvia's, a famous restaurant in Harlem, Bill O'Reilly reported that he "had a great time, and all the people up there are tremendously respectful," adding: "I 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." Later, during a discussion with National Public Radio senior correspondent and Fox News contributor Juan Williams about the effect of rap on culture, O'Reilly asserted: "There wasn't one person in Sylvia's who was screaming, 'M-Fer, I want more iced tea.' You know, I mean, everybody was -- it was like going into an Italian restaurant in an all-white suburb in the sense of people were sitting there, and they were ordering and having fun. And there wasn't any kind of craziness at all." O'Reilly also stated: "I think black Americans are starting to think more and more for themselves. They're getting away from the Sharptons and the [Rev. Jesse] Jacksons and the people trying to lead them into a race-based culture. They're just trying to figure it out. 'Look, I can make it. If I work hard and get educated, I can make it."

Following Bill O’Reilly‘s comments about Representative Maxine Waters‘s hair on Fox & Friends this morning, calls for his termination have intensified. His “James Brown wig” observation has been called sexist and racist.

Dear @FoxNews: Bill O’Reily is racist and should be removed from your airwaves. Vile. https://t.co/YMyKa59I18

Does @FoxNews have a standards and practices department? Because there’s not a news organization I know of where this could fly. https://t.co/OPGj6Y09dF

I seem to recall Don Imus being fired for similar commentary about black women; though in that case, not about a *member of congress.* https://t.co/2d2ldkCv92

Apparently, he has apologized
