Daily Kos || Drudge vs. O'Reilly Smackdown!
Topic: Media 9:21 pm EST, Dec 18, 2003

] Talker Author Bill O'Reilly lashed out against this space
] during his popular FOXNEWS O'REILLY FACTOR Wednesday
] night -- just hours after closely guarded book sales
] figures were splashed over the internet.
]
] Sales figures show how, contrary to his claims,
] O'Reilly lags far behind rivals Al Franken and Sen.
] Hillary Clinton for nonfiction props!

The quote above is from Drudge, but the Kos has all the important details in one place thats easy to find and link to, so he gets the link over Drudge..

The main reason I blog this is to keep track of the places where Bill O'Reilly has been caught in blatant lies, where he would have had to know the truth.

O'Reilly 430,407, Franken 674,024, Hillary 1,084,520..

That's not even in the same ballpark. Not even close. People who have track records of lying should not be put in a position where they gain a reputation as a trusted news source.. A Prime Time news slot got Bill his rep, because it got him out in front of many more people then at any other previous point in his career.

Good job Rupert, you have built a cult-of-personality out of a blatant liar. This is a great disservice to the american people, who you claim to serve in a "fair and balanced" way. Thanks to O'Reilly, we know without a doubt where Fox stands on ethics and journalism versus ratings, otherwise this guy would have been off the air a long time ago.

I don't think I'm making a big deal of this either.. Newscasters that regularly get caught in lies should not be newscasters.
