Why do women hate Bill O'Reilly and men hate Sean Hannity?

[murdoch]

I know a lot of women who can not stand Bill O'Reilly. Of all the right wing talking heads out there, they find him the most repulsive.

I don't understand this. It's obvious to me Sean Hannity is the one who is the most annoying.

What is the reason for this men are from Mars, women are from Venus difference?

[Sanity Claws]

1. I hate them both

Sorry I can't help you with your question but perhaps your question is flawed.

[adigal]

2. I hate both of them...so don't ask me! n/t

[NeoConsSuck]

3. I'm a male and I detest the both of them. (no msg)

4. That's too limiting

Some women hate both of them... :puke: :puke: :puke:

[Avalux]

5. What are you talking about?

They are both equally repulsive disgusting pieces of shit according to this woman. Don't see where you get the man/woman thing.

[jayctravis]

7. O'Reilly is the smarmy boss...

every woman has been leered at by.

Hannity is the whiny fuckhead from every guy's high school who wouldn't quit hanging around even though nobody could figure out whose friend he actually was.

[PennyK]

32. You nailed it!

Even though that is a sexist remark...I detest O Reilly with a hate that is more than hate...I feel that he knows he's lying, and delighted with himself for picking the winning side. Hannity is just an idiot.

[Jesus Saves]

I'm male - I don't like either but

Hannity repulses me more - by far.

I've even seen some women on DU call Hannity cute....he looks like an angry ape to me.

[Selteri]

8. I think it's more

Bill degrades and is degrading toward women
Sean is just annoying for how he emasculates his vict... those who disagree with them.

Hence, Women hate Bill Men hate Sean - I dislike both to a level of intensity that I would like to see taken off the air after being tarred and featherd on live TV.

[Jesus Saves]

12. I think you're right

Hannity I think tries to be nice to women - more than he is to men.

O'Reilly is probably more slimy to women than men - although I can't say cuz I don't watch his show anymore.

[Hello_Kitty]

9. Hannity IS younger and better looking than O'Reilly

Oh wait...I forgot...women are from Venus and we're less "visually oriented" than men as we are reminded at every turn. Whoops, my bad :eyes:

[morgan2]

10. orielly is more of an ugly person

women tend to demonize him more. Hannity on the other hand acts like a pretty boy, so men tend to hate him.

[seabeyond]

11. oreilly is a bully. to have a physically big man and a bully

oreilly purposely tries to intimidate. i can imagine how this can be even more offensive than just the mouth hannity

both are puke

[alittlelark]

13. They are both detestable men w/ little lying piggy eyes

Rush and b*sh also have little lying piggy eyes.

[Blue Diadem]

14. They are both equally ugly

and I don't mean in the looks department. The minute they open their mouth they show their ugliness.

I'm a woman and I can't stand either one of them.

[BrklynLiberal]

15. All RW Repukes are basically insecure misogynists. ERGO, they

are all pretty detestable. Some may cover it up better than others, so some women may find them somewhat less detestable. That may be why some women may find Hannity a bit less unbearable.
Personally, I think they are both disgusting, as are Limpballs, Russert, Tweety, Novak, and all the others. I don't listen to them, so I cannot name them all.
EDIT: The women who proselytize for the RW are self-loathing women who have bought into the RW program that they are inferior beings and are willing to whore it out for them. Much like abused spouses or abused children who still stand by their abusers hoping to win their approval.

[BlueIris]

24. Preach it!

By the way, you've chosen lovely nicknames for all of the truly yucky ones.

[BrklynLiberal]

31. Thank you very much. I will step off the soap box now..

:blush:

[BuyingThyme]

16. O'Reilly embarrasses men and Hannity embarrasses

men also.

As for women, they're embarrassed for the men who're embarrassed.

[Cleita]

17. I hate them both. I am a woman.

Maybe it has more to do with the fact that they are extreme right and I'm pretty much a bouncy wish I were wearing Birkenstocks lefty. Mars and Venus have nothing to do with it unless you are talking about war and love, not gender bigotry.

[Cheney Killed Bambi]

18. O'Reilly is a sex harasser

As we know from the Andrea Makris situation, O'Reilly sexually harasses his female underlings. Perhaps there are a lot of women out there who see that quality in him and react viscerally in a negative way.

Me -- I'm a male who can't stand EITHER of them!

:puke:

[DearAbby]

19. I'd have to shave my dog's butt and teach him to walk backward to

resemble those too....that answer your question? :evilgrin:

[purr]

20. I think

Hannity is sexy. I dont agree with what he spews out, but he is damn good looking IMO.

[Jilly Beans]

21. What? I abhor both of them, and Scarborough too.

From where did you draw your conclusion? Not from DU, I suppose.

[Skittles]

22. I find them equally repulsive

yes INDEED

[WinterStorm]

23. I hate the both of them n/t

[stanwyck]

25. As a woman, I actually hate Hannity more

though it's a close call. They're both smug, smiley hacks. This is how far we've fallen in America. From people looking to John Chancellor, Harry Reasoner, and Walter Cronkite, to people hanging on the wisdom of the likes of O'Reilly and Hannity. From well-educated, well-traveled, experienced thoughtful commentators to spinmeisters with no understanding of the truth or appreciation of facts. O'Reilly and Hannity study their wingnut Cliff notes for a few seconds before airtime and let their egos do the rest. They're the posters boys of "dumbed down".

[Swamp Rat]

26. SHARE THE HATE!!!

:D

[BlueIris]

27. I had no idea there was a special male base of hate for Hannity.

As a woman, well, WATCH O'Reilly's show sometime if you want to get more insight into that. I can't remember watching a broadcast in which there weren't like twenty BLATANTLY misogynist digs masquerading as actual "newsworthy" comment woven into his statements. He will insult women for anything and everything: working more hours with men, being more likely to work longer hours if they have families (gee, wonder why women would have to do THAT?), not breastfeeding their infants long enough, caring less about national news, "unless it focuses on 'women's issues,'" etc. Don't even get me started on how many ways O'Lielly has found to call women stupid. He's a hater of the first order. Hannity...I'm not sure what he does that would make men more likely to hate him...really, I'm not.

[Pushed To The Left]

28. I guess I'm not alone!

I disagree with O'Reilly on many issues, but he doesn't get me nearly as angry as Sean Hannity does! Part of that is that O'Reilly at least has his own views while Hannity seems like he is just regurgitating right-wing talking points. Another thing that I notice is that O'Reilly attempts to be logical, while Hannity seems to run on pure hysterical emotion.

[Azathoth]

29. Hannity is a meatball

Decent looking, but dumb as a brick and nasty. An in-your-face high school jock without the athletic ability. Someone guys tend to want to punch and women tend to just ignore.

O'Reilly, on the other hand, is a smarmy egomaniac. He's the kind of guy who talks endlessly about how great he is and how lucky you are to be listening to him, while he undresses every woman in the room with his eyes and glares jealously at their husbands. In other words, he's a guy who make women's skin crawl and who men tend to ignore (or laugh at).

[Bouncy Ball]

30. I hate 'em both. They are both vile, evil little slugs

who aren't even worth these keystrokes.

[LittleClarkie]

34. Maybe it's the fallafals

I don't know. I actually can halfway stand to listen to O'Reilly, and I can't stand to listen to Hannity at all. So I'm the other way around, and I am indeed a girlie.

Hannity is such a complete ass. At least O'Reilly can say something reasonable every once in a blue moon.
