Did anyone watch the "O'Really" Factor today?
Today, I was flipping through and I decided to watch a little bit of Bill's show. I've only seen the show a few times, but every time I watch it he seems to be making racist statements. Today, for example, he was talking about the NBA. He said that the crime rate among NBA players was high because there are so many African Americans who play in the league. Another time, he was mouthing off and generalizing African Americans as "gangbangers". He's also made numerous comments about his hatred of rap music. Am I the only one who is taking this offensively?

4. I can't believe they let him say stuff like that.
The FCC goes crazy when Janet's tit barely exposes itself, but they let this idiot make these obviously racist comments on TV which are a million times more offensive than a breast showing.

2. O'Really shows his true colors
What a POS!

:eyes:

You should be offended. Everybody should.

I think Bill's real problem is he hates everyone.

5. out of touch
He is everyone's grandfather who doesn’t get it... I don't listen to rap, but I doubt it's public enemy number #1... It's really painful to listen to O'Reilly talk about pop culture... Anyone remember his rants against Africa's AIDS Muppet? I'll add that to his greatest hits.

7. Is he trying to get himself fined?
With everything he's been saying lately, the "primitives" remark, "Goebbels," and this it's like he's testing the limits. Or perhaps we've just seen him flip from insane to batshit insane.

8. Fined? Was he nude? Did he curse?
Racism is fine on the radio provided you don't use direct slurs.

9. Eating a baby on the radio is fine.
If you are a Republican.

Oh yeah, Bully is an independant, who "accidentaly" checked the Republican box on his voter registration.

11. The only reason he hasn't been canned is
that no one notices...because no one is watching. :P
