(26,619 posts)police lying on reports, an administration lying about WMD's, the news lying (or committing the sin of omission) and on it goes. Lying is probably the most destructive force among human beings leading to war, death and destruction.

(21,925 posts)that explains why he could instantly transition from the Falklands to Buenos Aires and how he could be both in Florida and Texas at the same time. He's about to announce that he can just find the nearest phone booth, rip off his street clothes, unfurl his blue cape and fly through the air faster than a speeding bullet. No one will be laughing then.

(28,787 posts)for some reason i thought about Liz Trotta and her wish for the president to be assassinated and thought she hadn't been on fox much after that, but i googled and it turns out that in 2012 she was on fox putting her foot in her mouth about sexual assault victims. so i'm guessing no, fox does not give a rat's ass about the truth obviously and they have no compunction about giving assholes airtime. none of which is news, i know.
that last one had escaped me - wow. that woman is a total right wing snake. and she still has a profile page on the fox news website. go figure.

They were all sanctioned. They all paid a price for their errors. That is what real news networks do.
When can we expect Faux to sanction O'Reilly? Are they a real network or aren't they?

(725 posts)Coincidentally, Buenos Aires is 1200 miles from the Falkland Islands, where BillO says he was in a "war zone", covering a two hour raucous anti- Argentinian government demonstration, where some teargas and rubber bullets may have been fired into the crowd, and where no one was reported as dead, except that's not what BillO reported.

He saw Williams down on the ground, and couldn't resist running in and kicking him. Much to his surprise, all the people he stepped on his way to the top suddenly found the courage to start kicking him -- AND HE HAS NO ONE TO BLAME BUT HIMSELF!!!

(725 posts)O'Reilly's Claim To Have Seen Nuns "Shot In The Back Of The Head" Contradicted By His Own Timeline
http://mediamatters.org/blog/2015/02/25/another-fabrication-oreilly-never-witnessed-the/202667
...
O'Reilly has spoken on several occasions about his time covering the Salvadoran civil war as a CBS correspondent in 1981, suggesting at least twice that he witnessed the murder of the churchwomen. On the September 27, 2005, edition of his talk-radio program The Radio Factor, O'Reilly said, "I've seen guys gun down nuns in El Salvador."
That man is shameless, and such a fake. I doubt he has uttered 12 sentences in his life that were the truth.

He seems to get off on claiming to witness murders, suicides & war combat.

(21,127 posts)Fox and billo never get consequences for their hate media. It makes me sick we live in a society that there are no consequences for right wingers whi lie and cheat. What kind of message does that send to our kis, you can lie, be mean and cheat and if you are a white conservative you get a pass.

(5,636 posts)A liberal friend of mine raised this issue with me, saying that O'Reilly's comments on Brian Williams were quite reasonable, and I've provided a couple links to support that. If someone has a link where O'Reilly trashes Williams I'd like to see it.
That said, O'Reilly's handling of the accusations against himself have been nothing short of insane with his ludicrous macho posturing and threats.
