2. Here's another contest Shill O'Reilly is running
Edited on Thu Jul-22-04 02:19 PM by rocknation
On AirAmerica today, Al Franken played a clip of Shill saying that it's "false" that his "enemy Stuart Smalley" beat him in the ratings, and he's willing to give $25G to charity if someone can prove that he doesn't have the bigger audience.

Notice the weasel? Bill was beaten in ratings, not audience size--apparently, the radio industry regards them differently. The numbers came from the industry rather than Air America itself, which Bill "forgot" to mention. And is he talking about his New York City audience, or his national one? That wasn't clear in his message, either.

But Bill is wrong to blame Al anyway. Isn't he aware that in New York City, Rush Limbaugh comes on at the same time as Al, and his show starts two hours later? Of course he is--but he can't call Rush his enemy, now can he? If Bill really wants to place blame, it should be on his NYC radio station for the way he's scheduled!

:headbang:

P.S. Al is running a poll on his website asking: "Who is worse--Bill O'Reilly or Bill O'Reilly?"
