Fox News calls Olbermann 'over the line'

[derby378]

Fox News Channel chairman and CEO Roger Ailes responded to Keith Olbermann's latest critical volley against Bill O'Reilly on Monday, saying the MSNBC host's behavior "is over the line."

Ailes, appearing Monday at the summer meeting of the Television Critics Association, was referring to a weekend incident at the gathering in which Olbermann whipped out a mask of O'Reilly and gave a Nazi salute.

Ailes said Olbermann picks on Fox's O'Reilly to boost his ratings.

"Clearly he has no viewers except those he gets when he attacks Fox News," Ailes said.

11. I love that RW talking point term...

... "over the line". Bill O-Really is over the line routinely. Various other Fox "News" personalities follow him "over the line" every day.


Guess what you lowlife Republican operative - you don't get to decide where the line is any more.

13. Pot, meet kettle

It takes one to know one and Faux should know all about going "over the line". Evidently Faux thinks that anyone to the left of Adolf Hitler is over the line that they set with O'Lielly and their other talking idiots.

15. Clearly, FOX can dish it out but can't take the comeback.

[SiouxJ]

16. So typical of bullies to turn into crybabies when someone finally

stands up to them. I love it! Keep whining Faux. I'm so sick of going into a bar or restaurant and seeing that Idiot O'Lielly on the tube. I lose my appetite. Everywhere I go I am assaulted by his asinine, hateful bullshit and now someone is assaulting him back. Finally!

Fork him and his herd of wombat cultish followers.

20. Inviting al-Qaeda to bomb San Francisco, THAT'S not over the line...

But KO wearing a Brillo mask and giving the Sieg Heil salute? Oh, that tears it.
