O’Reilly: ‘I really don’t go’ on the Internet.
Last night, Fox News host Bill O’Reilly asked Mary Katherine Hall of Townhall.com if she saw “anything really egregious on the Internet” regarding the death of actor Heath Ledger. Ham said that she “was fairly surprised that people were generally sympathetic towards him and behaving themselves.” (Guess O’Reilly and Ham missed the comments by John Gibson.) Watch it:
O’Reilly also admitted, “I don’t, as you know — I don’t live on the Net. I have to use it for writing purposes, and sometimes I’ll research on it, but I don’t really go.”

Except, of course, to have cyber loofa sex.
January 24th, 2008 at 1:28 pmOf course he only goes there for research, wink, wink, so says the Falafel Sexual Predator Vibrating Sicko. He more than likely visits gay falafel abusing republican porn sites.

January 24th, 2008 at 1:34 pmWhy would a huge egomaniac go on the internet.
I mean really!

How do you find out what’s being said about you on MMFA, Bill?
How do you cherry pick quotes from DailyKos, Bill?
January 24th, 2008 at 1:38 pmBillo finds it hard to find people on the internet interested in the story of the story of the time he went to Shelbyville with an onion tied to his belt, as that was the fashion at the time…

January 24th, 2008 at 1:44 pmlike oil and water… Billo and facts
January 24th, 2008 at 1:47 pmWhy would O’Reilly even ask such a question? Did he ask if there was “anything really egregious on the Internet†regarding the deaths of Suzanne Pleshette or Lois Nettleton — other entertainers who died this month? How about Bobby Fisher? Or Sir Edmund Hillary?
The only reason I can think of for O’Reilly asking this is if he believes Ledger’s death is somehow worthy of “egregious” comments.
January 24th, 2008 at 1:48 pmBill-o: “I don’t, as you know — I don’t live on the Net. I have to use it for writing purposes, and sometimes I’ll research on it, but I don’t really go.â€..except when I’m checking the live camera I had installed in the ladies room @ Faux News….and when I’m “googling” myself…other than that, not much.
January 24th, 2008 at 1:51 pmLiar. Who can forget his infatuation with Daily Kos? Bill O spent weeks sparring with them.
If he doesn’t ‘go on’ the internet, how did he know so much about Dkos?
January 24th, 2008 at 1:51 pmAfter we force advertisers to pull from Blow O’Reichy’s show, phone sex operators will be delighted to take their places.
January 24th, 2008 at 1:51 pm‘I really don’t go’ on the Internet…
Everyone has beaten me to the punch, so I’ll just leave this one alone.
January 24th, 2008 at 1:52 pmBill only goes online for dildo shopping.

January 24th, 2008 at 1:54 pmIt’s dangerous to go on the internet, what with all those pipes and tubes.
January 24th, 2008 at 1:55 pmHe doesn’t even check his own website for comments from people who pay to be members? What a waste of money.
January 24th, 2008 at 1:56 pmThat sucks. If O’Reilly never goes on the net, then he’ll never read this post where I call him a giant (*&$#@%&)*!

Comment by Blackacre
People pay to go on Bildo’s website?!?! They must be the same dumbasses who are buying Jonah Goldberg’s book which says that Mussolini was a Socialist.
Some people are too stupid to be trusted with money.
January 24th, 2008 at 2:01 pmShe obviously missed the freepers.
January 24th, 2008 at 2:03 pmToo much time on the Net might pop Bildo’s little bubble view of reality.
Keep pimpin those website subscriptions of yours while making those comments, Bill. Makes you look like a bigger dope.
January 24th, 2008 at 2:03 pmBill may not go on the internet but you can be sure he comes on it.
January 24th, 2008 at 2:03 pm… O’Reilly asked Mary Katherine Hall of Townhall.com if she saw “anything really egregious … Ham said …
typo? what’s with that?
January 24th, 2008 at 2:06 pmbut what’s this then ?

Please, no more tabloid trash.
January 24th, 2008 at 2:07 pmLiar. Who can forget his infatuation with Daily Kos? Bill O spent weeks sparring with them.

Comment by bobcat_grad — January 24, 2008 @ 1:51 pm
One of two reasons:
1) He really doesn’t go on the internet, or even do his own research on anything. He has staffers do everything for him, and takes their word for any tripe they hand him.
OR
2) He’s lying through his teeth.
January 24th, 2008 at 2:09 pmThe only reason I can think of for O’Reilly asking this is if he believes Ledger’s death is somehow worthy of “egregious†comments.

Sounds like a pretty standard way to dodge the Gibson controversy, missmolly. “Did you hear about anything we should talk about? No? Neither did I.”
He kinda thinks he dealt with it, but he doesn’t have to even mention anyone’s name. He thinks he’s presenting this facade of reasonableness (which he loves to do) without actually being reasonable about anything.
January 24th, 2008 at 2:14 pmComment by ralph the wonder llama — January 24, 2008 @ 2:14 pm
agreed. he was providing cover.
January 24th, 2008 at 2:19 pmJust another version of his “some say” method of expressing his truly loathsome attitudes.
January 24th, 2008 at 2:23 pmIt amazes me that people believe this crap
January 24th, 2008 at 2:36 pmIf he doesn’t go on the internet(s), how does he know that MMFA and TP are “smear merchants”?
January 24th, 2008 at 3:12 pm“I really don’t go on the internet”…
I have a feeling this is going to be the next “I don’t even own a TV” from pretentious pseudointellectuals.
January 24th, 2008 at 4:07 pmShe was “fairly SURPRISED that people were sympathetic to him…”?
What the hell is that all about? She was surprised that people were sympathetic?
I guess when you are heartless, thoughtless and evil things like that would surprise you.
January 24th, 2008 at 4:43 pmI don’t, as you know — I don’t live on the Net. I have to use it for writing purposes, and sometimes I’ll research on it, but I don’t really go
So wait, let me get this correct. O’Lie-lly is admitting that he is in direct violations of his own WGA contract, by writing his show??? Or did he lie when he told the union he was winging it on the air since the strike? Or is he lying now about writing, to make people think he might be informed, knowing of course he isn’t. Or has he lied all the time and is so confused by it all that even he no longer knows what is true about himself? I suppose it is so much easier to just ignore him completely, that way his constant prevarications never matter anyhow.
January 24th, 2008 at 4:47 pmAll I’ve got to say to Bill O”reily is Kieth Olbermann, Kieth Olbermann. You are little billy boy, little, because you got no class, no sense of self esteem, you’re just ugly and little. Being 6′ 7″ doesn’t make you tall my friend. Not when you have a little mind.
January 24th, 2008 at 5:08 pmResearch… Yeah, sure!
January 24th, 2008 at 5:50 pmWhat, does he get his kiddie porn delivered in a brown wrapper, like the rest of the fox noise staff? ROTFL!
