O'Reilly's Almost Kerry Interview

Post by Stravo »

If anyone's been watching O'Reilly this week you know he's pulling this stupid stunt where he gets some Kerry experts and fields questions to them as if they were Kerry. How silly is that? I find it to be a little unethical to pretend to be interviewing someone and have a supposed 'expert' answering in other words putting words in Kerry's mouth. If the man doesn not want to be interviewed to bad so sad, O'Reilly. Just let it go.

Because O'LIEly is to journalism what Typhoid Mary was to public health and no Democratic candidate in his right mind would touch that freak show with a 20' poll (poll as in... never mind :roll: ). Unethical pseudo-journalism from Mr. "Shut Up! Cut His Mike!"? You're kidding, right?

Is Bill O'Lielly even considered a journalist though? I've only seen the show a couple of times, and I figured he was just considered a political commentator.

He's mostly considered a twat.

Sad, but true. He and his ilk have been brought up a few times in lectures on my course with regards to what is 100% definetly NOT journalism.
