1. That Bill O'Reilly is such a bore.
It started out funny.
I never watch O'Reilly, so I had forgotten what a hostile prick he is.

2. Did
Did you notice how the interview was cut? His interview was heavily edited and it shows.

3. No, I didn't. I'm not accustomed to looking for that.
Maybe I'll watch it a second time.

4. I noticed that too.
They were awkwardly hard edits too, making me wonder what he sliced away.

16. I count at least 20-22
That's in both parts. 20-22 clumsy amateurish cuts in less than 12 minutes.

5. Tit for tat....
That butt head can refer to John Stewart's audience anyway he wants. Fact is, bor's audience are either geriatric fearful sheep, or red neck bigots. I'll even concede there are a few just downright ignorant butt heads like himself that tune in as well.

7. +1, Yep, Bill O'Reilly is such a self-opinionated asshole! Plus an absolute bore. It's hard to
imagine he doesn't attract the same.

6. "Do you understand the importance of YOU being important in ANY context?"
how utterly demeaning.

and if you think it isn't a slight on Jews you are wrong-Bill knows what that means to his viewers

29. His audience doesn't understand sarcasm or irony
It is a sure sign of conservatism on the brain-they simply don't register either

33. Yes. He was trying to be funny
and clever throughout the whole interview. Not at all successfully. Jon Stewart is the best! I love his humanity and think everyone can learn alot from his interview style and approach.

8. O'Really knows he is a mental peewee next to Stewart.
The cuts are to make an attempt to bring him to near equal ground.

But it was an utter failure. O'Really came across as the smug, ignorant prick that he really is.

9. For the record, my 85 year old dad is one of those slacker stoners.
And for the record I continue to be inspired by Jon and his crew of brilliant brilliant crew.


And also for the record, I don't think my dad has even been drunk before. And definitely not stoned.

22. My mom loves John Stewart
She's officially a senior citizen, and I doubt she's ever tried pot.

Or Countdown, if his life depended on it.

10. Stoned Slackers who love Obama?
How about a large portion of the populace who has gotten wise to the fact that you can get more pure truth from a comedian than from any of the "legitimate" News Sources. If I want to be well informed about politics in Washington, I'll watch Stewart and Colbert. If I want to know the latest with Brad and Angelina, or what Octo-mom is up too, I'll watch CNN.

O'Reilly can't claim that! :)

12. Fox News belittles anyone that doesn't come on their network and spew the rightwing talking points
I saw Ann Coultergeist and Kimberly Guilfoyle attack "New Fox News Correspondent" Joe Trippi in that same demeaning and condescending manner last weekend on Geraldo at Large. O'Leilly couldn't polish Jon Stewart's boots.

14. papa bear gets hammered by goldilocks
Edited on Wed Feb-03-10 11:59 PM by billancourt
i don't know if some have noticed that o'reilly has ever so slightly toned down his rhetoric in the past week. i stress " ever so slightly". fox has been "done" twice in the last two days, once for cutting off the tongue lashing that the president gave to john, "i can't seem to say democratic" boehner,(whose seething racial hatred for the prez is oh so evident)and the simpletons at the "lunch". The second time was of course the interview with John Stewart. Superlative, even after editing out all they could, O'Reilly still got dressed down and he was simply at a loss when trying to counter Stewart's articulate jabs. Ratings whores cannot argue constructively and should not invite people like Stewart, it's counter-productive for their cause. It's a bittersweet statement of the political landscape in America, when it's the Daily Show that gives the most objective views and the Fox News propaganda organization is considered trusted. The difference between HeeHaw and Fox News is that while sharing the same audience demographics, HeeHaw did not promote hate. when beck has no more sponsors and the hannity o'reilly infighting takes it's toll on fox, joined with mr obama's re-election, perhaps ailes will reconsider and change the agenda.

15. Cool. Stewart was excellent. Poor Bill can't carry on a conversation. All he knows how to do
is talk over people.

Rec.

35. And he can't really get into his yelling bit
with Jon bc Jon is so damn smart and doesn't provide that angry energy that so feeds oreilly. Love it.

17. The UNedited version....
I read earlier today that tomorrow night (Thursday) the full UNedited version will be posted on the FoxNews website.
Don't forget that the interview continues on O'Reilly's show tomorrow too.

20. Also, if anything important was edited out Jon won't let him get away with it.
Does anyone know the viewer numbers of The Daily Show vs the O'Lielly Faketor?

40. Apparently FAUX has it posted, but I can't get their links to work
Probably No Script is blocking it, and I'm not disabling it on THAT website.

Thankfully the whole thing has been uploaded to the bit torrent sites, so it's out there if you want to look for it.

18. Another good example of O'Reilly inviting differing opinions on his show. I wish others would do
the same.

24. Wow, I figured that would be a bloodbath
but except for a few outlandish comments by O'Reilly and really not many of them, it was a reasonable discussion.

25. They really want to push that Stewart's demographic is stoned slackers
And that's absurd. I haven't touched pot in years (I don't like the way it makes me feel and besides, I'm a nurse and they can drug test me any old time. I'm highly educated and I believe I get better news from Stewart than I've gotten from CNN in years and well, Faux "News" is just that, false and not news.

26. The one thing I wish Stewart would've said in response to O'Reilly's comment:
Paraphrased-"Come on, Stewart, saying my viewers don't know my show is an opinion show is like saying your viewers don't know your show is a comedy show." I wish Stewart would've replied, "You just proved my point: MY show is on 'Comedy Central.' YOUR show is part of 'Fox NEWS.' How does that say yours is opinion?"

31. I have to say.. B.O. was actually as civil as I have ever seen him... he
didn't butt in constantly and allowed J.S. to actually try to explain himself... although I didn't appreciate the way he seems to talk down to J.S. ...

B.O. is just that B.O.

Thanks for posting .. I enjoyed it...

38. I love how O'Reilly completely missed the Jon's sarcasm about "three equal braches..."
It was Jon's way of complimenting Obama on not being a semi-dictator like Bush. But of course it went all over O'Reilly's head.
