O’Reilly Lies: I Always Let People Explain Themselves Or Appear On My Show Before Harassing Them
O’Reilly Lies: I Always Let People Explain Themselves Or Appear On My Show Before Harassing Them
The harassment I experienced at the hands of Bill O’Reilly’s henchmen this past weekend was unfortunately not the first such incident by the network. Other victims include the New Yorker’s Hendrik Hertzberg, Gov. Jim Douglas (R-VT), the Atlanta Journal Constitution’s Cynthia Tucker, and the Columbia Journalism Review’s Mike Hoyt.
On Aug. 24, 2007, O’Reilly defended his harassment machine:
As you may know, “The Factor” occasionally sends out producers to confront people who will not answer serious questions about controversial things they do, like judges giving child rapists probation, for example.
Now, some object to displays like these. But we feel they’re a vital tool in holding public servants accountable for their actions, and we do not go after people lightly. We always ask them on the program first, or to issue a clear statement explaining their actions.
For the record, I am neither a public servant, nor was I ever contacted by Fox News for the opportunity to issue a statement or appear on the O’Reilly Factor. Similarly, O’Reilly lied on-air after Watters’s ambush of Hertzberg, claiming that he had invited the journalist on the show. (He hadn’t.)
We have now contacted multiple people at Fox, including Watters himself. We have yet to receive a response from anyone at the network.
During that same August 2007 show, O’Reilly even asked Watters if he feels “afraid” during his ambushes. Watters joked, “No, I’m just afraid to come back empty-handed for you.” O’Reilly said that Watters was becoming a “big star all over the world.”

Hi BLC
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:08 pmStill scared?
“O’Reilly Lies” – isn’t that a given?
What’s interesting is his obsession to deflect the blame on HIS OWN COMMENTS. He said that a murdered girl somehow deserved to be “Raped and Murdered” – he’s the one that has some ’splaining to do, no one else.

March 23rd, 2009 at 6:08 pm“Watters is also under the delusion that in 2007, he single-handedly saved Christmas.”
Well? It still comes every year, doesn’t it? He must have saved it.
/snark
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:08 pmI haven’t really been following comments. Is BLC the resident troll or what? With comments like that, it sure seems like he’s trying out for the position.

March 23rd, 2009 at 6:12 pmI am so disappointed in Amanda. She fell into O’Reilly’s trap and has given him fodder to twist her words and intention. Even the most naive blogger knows not to engage these people. Two words are all that are needed to silence these creeps: “Andrea Mackris.”
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:12 pmBill O’Reilly staunchly believes Americans have a constitutionally protected right to privacy, that’s why he supports the warrantless wiretapping of Americans and abortion rights!

Nice of you to admit that Bill. I just love hearing how a journalist says he harasses people. Ever visited a dictionary for the definition of interview?
You could ask one of your assistants, providing they haven’t filed a harassment suit against you.

March 23rd, 2009 at 6:20 pmI suppose BLC could weasel out and say Billo is his hero because of his history. Maybe BLC has to stalk young interns who wear something other than potato sacks? Like Billo?
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:21 pmI disagreed with Stewart on Cramer. But, this I agree with. O’Reilly needs to figure out which approach is right and go with it.
Stalking people to give interviews they don’t want to, is wrong. It’s at least as wrong as taking pictures of people that want to be left alone.
Try this instead. “We tried to contact X for a comment, but X did not answer our calls”.

March 23rd, 2009 at 6:33 pmTroll Central is getting worried.
The essence of Tao, in Western terms, is that sh*t happens.
The essence of trolls is that they understand the first half.
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:34 pmIt never ceases to amaze me how O’Reilly (and the trolls in support of him here today) can actually believe that quoting someone’s own words is “smearing” them. Perhaps O’Reilly (and his ilk) do not know what the word “smear” means. Maybe they think it means “To quote something someone said back to him.”
At any rate, Bill O’Reilly is a liar. Now, if he wants to send his borderline-criminal stalker after me, I suppose I can’t stop him. But I’m sure the New York State Police can.
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:35 pmPatsy?
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:38 pmBLC are you going to talk to me or not? If not why not? Come on big guy show some balls!
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:39 pmBLC. That’s wrong and you know it’s irrelevant.
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:39 pmOne has to wonder about how brave O’Reilly was in harassing Ms. Terkel while showing absolutely no signs of courage when he mysteriously managed to avoid ending up in Vietnam despite the fact that he was of draft age and was physically fit enough to have played football while attending college in the 1960s. It would seem that the [alleged] patriotic 6′ 4″ Bill O’Reilly somehow made sure that he would have nothing to do with the diminutive Viet Cong who, while small, could have easily put a hole in O’Reilly’s chest or made the demagogue go whimpering back into his foxhole.
Bill O’Reilly and patriotism-do as I say, not as I do
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:39 pmI’d like to commend Amanda for standing up to Watters and O’Reilly.

Are you illiterate as well as ignorant? Read the other post related to this. Ms Terkel did not “run”, she asked the producer what he was talking about and then said she didn’t have to use Fox News to communicate. Then she walked down the street. She didn’t run, she walked.
BLC, you are a moron. You really are. And a very unpleasant one at that.
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:48 pmThe poster claimed that amanda “stood up to O’Reilly.” It was false and I pointed it out.

BLC Says:
She did “stand up to him”
Behind the hotel door?
As in a ‘privately rented room? As in to tell the paparazzi/National Enquirer bozo to go away? As in your azz looks very nice on your head but you should either shave your ears or your azz because it looks funny?

Since when is telling the truth by playing someone’s words back to them a “smear”? Bill O’Reilly said on national TV that the victim of a rape/murder was herself responsible because she dressed provocatively and was drunk. What he is telling men out there is if they run into a dunk woman who is dressed provocatively, have at it. And you approve of that? Hopefully you will be caught and sent to prison for many years.
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:54 pmWhat Barely Living Crawfish is ignoring is that Amanda’s posting earlier, and this one now is showing that she’s standing up to Bill O and his gang. She’s not going to play their game. She’s pointing out the sneak attacks and how they don’t follow their own rules.
Bullsh*t Loving Cruststain, you have no real argument, only noise.
March 23rd, 2009 at 6:55 pmBLC, there is help available. Seek professional help. NOW.

Former Senator Fred Thompson – did not serve.
Senator John McCain – McCain’s naval honors include the Silver Star, Bronze Star, Legion of Merit, Purple Heart and Distinguished Flying Cross. Why did the Bush campaign smear him so in 2000? At least Senators Cleland (D-GA), Kerry (D-MA), Kerrey (D-NE), Robb (D-VA) and Hagel (R-NE) defended him.

Former Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert – avoided the draft, did not serve.
Former House Majority Leader Dick Armey – avoided the draft, did not serve.
Former House Majority Leader Tom Delay – avoided the draft, did not serve (1). “So many minority youths had volunteered … that there was literally no room for patriotic folks like himself.”
Former House Majority Whip Roy Blunt – did not serve
Former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist – did not serve. (An impressive medical resume, but not such a friend to cats in Boston.)
Rick Santorum, R-PA, formerly third ranking Republican in the Senate – did not serve. (1)
George Felix Allen, former Republican Senator from Virginia – a supporter of Nixon and the Vietnam war, did not serve. (1)
Former Secretary of Defense Don Rumsfeld – served in the U.S. Navy (1954-57) as an aviator and flight instructor. (1) Served as President Reagan’s Special Envoy to the Middle East and met with Saddam Hussein twice in 1983 and 1984.
GW Bush – decided that a six-year Nat’l Guard commitment really means four years. Still says that he’s “been to war.” Huh?
VP Cheney – several deferments (1, 2), the last by marriage (in his own words, “had other priorities than military service”) (1)
Former Att’y Gen. John Ashcroft – did not serve (1, 2); received seven deferment to teach business ed at SW Missouri State
Jeb Bush, Florida Governor – did not serve. (1)
Karl Rove – avoided the draft, did not serve (1), too busy being a Republican.
Former Speaker Newt Gingrich – avoided the draft, did not serve (1, 2)
Former President Ronald Reagan – due to poor eyesight, served in a noncombat role making movies for the Army in southern California during WWII. He later seems to have confused his role as an actor playing a tail gunner with the real thing.
“B-1″ Bob Dornan – avoided Korean War combat duty by enrolling in college acting classes (Orange County Weekly article). Enlisted only after the fighting was over in Korea.
Phil Gramm – avoided the draft, did not serve, four (?) student deferments
Congressman Ron Paul – active duty flight surgeon from 1963-65; Air National Guard from 1965-68. (link)

Senator Jeff Sessions U.S. Army Reserves, 1973-1986
Colin Powell. What are we to make of Powell? On the one hand, a long career as a military manager. On the other hand, accused of covering up the My Lai massacre. Back on that first hand, one of the seemingly sane voices in this administration when it comes to Iraq (or at least he used to be). On the other hand, a clear hypocrite (”I am angry that so many of the sons of the powerful and well-placed… managed to wangle slots in Reserve and National Guard units…”)
Representative Wayne Gilchrest (R-MD), served in USMC in Vietnam; wounded in action.

Keith Olbermann [if that is who BLC is referring to] is ten years younger than O’Reilly while O’Reilly should have been drafted, as he was of prime age to have been taken in by the army. Even though he was not drafted [though he mot certainly should have been], it still begs the question as to why this overpowering hunk of manhood did not join the army or the marines in order to demonstrate his [alleged] patriotism.

March 23rd, 2009 at 8:58 pmThe Stewart piece was great. Seriously, does anyone who matters ever listen to O’Reilly, unless it is in a “know your enemy” vein? The people who take him seriously will never listen to reason, so getting frustrated trying to reason with them or O’Reilly himself is futile. TP’s line-up of Fox news today – far more enlightening than Fox News – is interesting, but nothing new. And if you look at poll numbers, they apparently aren’t getting through to anyone who is not already stupid enough to listen to them.

Before you write stuff about what Bill O’Reilly has said, why don’t you check the facts or listen to radio programs before you open your yap.
Simple isn’t it?
You should apologize to Alexa and her family.
Sorry, OT…

March 23rd, 2009 at 9:08 pmWell, Karma is not a human quality, so its not ‘karma’
Amanda did listen to the O’Reilly segment in question
Confused are we?
Amanda didnt say it was Alexas fault for being raped and murdered..O’Reilly did.
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:09 pmIt is a little know fact that after taken from the cross the dead Jesus was nestled in a bed of plastic grass and scattered with jellybeans and peeps
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:10 pmO’Reilly is such an arrogant blowhard, rude and condescending a$$wipe, he makes me mad even on the rare occasion when I agree with him. Seems to be the preferred GOP style. 23% need to be told what to think.
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:10 pmYes, I hope Karen is wearing her burka so nothing bad happens to her cause you know it would be your fault if some rapist were to see your epidermis
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:11 pmWell, I knew it was coming. In fact, I predicted it quite a long time ago when I said that Amanda Terkel would impose a one-size-fits-all model on how society should function. And now that she has, we must truly get us out of the hammerlock that Terkel is holding us in. Let me begin by citing a range of examples from the public sphere. For starters, Terkel’s a financial predator who preys on the elderly, the gullible, and the vulnerable. She seeks their assets to support her own lavish lifestyle. Keep that in mind while I state the following: By Terkel’s standards, if you have morals, believe that character counts, and actually raise your own children—let alone teach them to be morally fit—you’re definitely an incomprehensible, contemptuous witling. My standards—and I suspect yours as well—are quite different from hers. For instance, I clearly avouch that Terkel’s toadies are too lazy to help people break free of Terkel’s cycle of oppression. They just want to sit back, fasten their mouths on the public teats, and casually forget that I have begged Terkel’s foot soldiers to step forth and exert a positive influence on the type of world that people will live in a thousand years from now. To date, not a single soul has agreed to help in this fashion. Are they worried about how Terkel might retaliate? As you no doubt realize, that’s a particularly timely question. In fact, just half an hour ago I heard someone express the opinion that Terkel and her habitués are, by nature, empty-headed, irritable gaberlunzies. Not only can that nature not be changed by window-dressing or persiflage, but Terkel demands obeisance from her acolytes. Then, once they prove their loyalty, Terkel forces them to exhibit a deep disdain for all people who are not condescending, perfidious twits.
As a practical matter, the things Terkel wants to do are unfair, if not illegal. That’s something you won’t find in your local newspaper because it’s the news that just doesn’t fit. As brassbound as her loyalists may be, they are also the most craven blackguards I’ve ever seen. In point of fact, she says that she needs a little more time to clean up her act. As far as I’m concerned, her time has run out. To close, let me accentuate that if we defend with dedication and ferocity the very rights that Amanda Terkel so desperately wants to abolish we shall not only survive Terkel’s attacks; we shall prevail.

Really, what does plastic surgery or education have to do with being saved?
Yes, when you feel pity for someone attack them, its what Jesus would do, right?
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:15 pmAnd as for the “PROTEST”, there was no such thing. It is a total fabrication and a lie. Unfortunately that horrible woman who came on the air smeared the rape victim once again by telling us that she had to quit her job and has lost sleep.
THERE IS NO PROTEST. Check the news reports and you’ll find there was an ONLINE PETITION!
Is there even one negative thing to be said about the Alexa Foundation within this petition? (which wasnt written by anyone at this site, nor at NBC, and instead came from another rape support group) Of course not. O’Reilly went too far with this lie. And he deserves to pay for this.
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:16 pmO’Reilly is mad because someone points out what a hateful and misogynistic creep he is. He sends out his thugs and proves Amanda’s point.

Go ahead, trolls, see for yourselves.

It is the extremes of this country that will eventually lead to the demise of a once great country where ideals and honor were something to be desired. Hope you enjoy the future you are designing.
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:33 pmI believe Bill has this one Amanda, after reviewing his link to his comments and then reading your post it seems you did quite the hack job. Rather than cry about making a mistake just post, “hey I was wrong I am sorry” Dont let your blind hatered lead you down karma road.

The thing is, brickq, Bill himself didn’t confront anybody personally. He sent one of his hired goons to do it and have someone film it for selective editing later.
BTW, I’m a Liberal and a veteran, and Bill O’Reilly doesn’t scare me one bit. He’s nothing but a bully. And we all know that deep inside every bully, there’s a frightened little child. Ask any psychologist.

Paparazzi stalk everyday normal people that have celebrity status intruding on their personal life nonstop, ask Britney( She needed 4 cops and a bodyguard to get her out of a store because of paparazzi) unlike Bill, who tracks people down that have tried to hurt, have hurt, or is involved in issues that the public has a right to know but wont go public, the thing is he does it once, he doesn’t follow them night and day. Also I suppose it helps that John’s audience cant figure that one out so it makes for good ratings. Id rather have him confront me and give me a chance rather than ambush me by taking what I said out of context and try to hurt me and my family that way.

March 23rd, 2009 at 9:52 pmAnd brickq, if you haven’t already found it (which should take a while since they don’t exist), tell us what she said that was hurtful to Alexa or her family, then provide a link to it. Don’t just post a link and make me look for what you might think is offensive, tell us what she said.
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:52 pmCommon sense dictates that with the Schedule and tv show he does nightly that I doubt he has time to chance down everyone that takes his words out of contexts and then tries to use them against him, I assume he uses his journalist to go after the most egregious ones.
Btw, I am an Independent gay man, I am not afraid of Bill either but it seems that alot of people are, I can only assume thats because I live an honest life like you Wayne and have nothing to hide.
March 23rd, 2009 at 9:52 pmLook, Billo and his ilk are getting increasingly more bitter and confrontational. Their whole world has turned upside since Barack won.

March 23rd, 2009 at 10:00 pmI would Wayne but because of the attention this has got and the fact you are here posting also I assumed most honest people who debate issues are knowledgeable of those issues. I am sorry I assumed you had taken the time to read Bills comments and then read what Amanda had to say. Also I do hope you took the time to watch Amanda’s interview with Bill’s assistant or whatever he is, I hope you saw clearly how she had not even taken the time to read in full context Bill’s statement. I think mostly is that Amanda tried to belittle an organization that would use Bill O’Reilly after some comments that she referred too that was taken completely out of context. By doing so she make the foundation look foolish and could hurt their outreach program. I believe she did this not thinking about what her actions may cause, I believe it was spurned on by hatred for Bill O’Reilly. However this does not her responsibility, we as I am sure you are aware of being a veteran, that our actions have consequences that we are responsible for.

March 23rd, 2009 at 10:04 pmYou know, I am going to actually say that I am afraid of Bill and his ilk. Not in the sense that I’d be afraid of him on a set or talking with him at a party. I am afraid of what extremists, both conservative and liberal, are capable of inciting. We’ve seen what Bill’s friend Bernie Goldberg has caused in Tennessee, as well as the sweetened venom that Glenn Beck disguises as concern. And frankly not everything out of Keith Olbermann’s mouth has been roses and perfume either. I’m concerned for our country being fueled by the wrong mentalities.
And I’m certainly concerned that one of these ambushes is going to backfire someday. Bill is lucky that he hasn’t sent his producers to confront the wrong people in the wrong situation.

Those who resort to that are not here for debate, they are here to do the same thing that Amanda was trying to do to Bill O’Reilly. I am not religious in fact I am agnostic bordering on atheist however I see that we have come to a place were conscious debate usually means “check your morals at the door. There is a certain anonymity that comes with commmenting on these forums that some use as a sniping point. Something I believe many of these people would not do face to face, however what I post to those who comment back to me I would have no problem discussing face to face.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:11 pmSorry gang. That should read “Red State and “His kid”.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:12 pmSo I read that brick also believes it is the victims fault.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:14 pmSo, Amanda – has Jon Stewart’s booker called you yet?
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:16 pmwhere did hannah duccab go?
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:16 pmShe pointed out what O’Reilly said about a rape vicitim. IE he blamed the victim and not the offender. O’Reilly did this to himself.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:16 pmIf you will reread my comments, I stated her attack on Bill had the undue objective of hurting a foundation for victims, her statements about him speaking at thier Outreach and then using Bills words out of context then belittles that group. Hmm, how can I put it in simpler terms, if I am an Outreach group for Holocaust victims and I ask a known support of the new neo-nazi movement to speak at it, then my Outreach is laughable. She implied that with her stance that Bill O’Reilly was not a wise choice to be a victims advocate. I hope that helps in clearing up the confusion.

Good evening, dbadass.
Bags of waterfowl are spreading out in the smaller, ice free, ponds and backwaters. I still can’t keep my mouth from watering when I see a flock of canvasback. I also spotted a white heron or egret yesterday though it was too distant to make a positive ID.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:21 pmLet me get this straight, Bill said what he did [blamed the victim] and its Amandas fault that he [Bill O'Reilly] blamed the victim?
Does not compute.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:21 pmPurple State Says:
You know, I am going to actually say that I am afraid of Bill and his ilk. Not in the sense that I’d be afraid of him on a set or talking with him at a party. I am afraid of what extremists, both conservative and liberal, are capable of inciting. We’ve seen what Bill’s friend Bernie Goldberg has caused in Tennessee, as well as the sweetened venom that Glenn Beck disguises as concern. And frankly not everything out of Keith Olbermann’s mouth has been roses and perfume either. I’m concerned for our country being fueled by the wrong mentalities.
And I’m certainly concerned that one of these ambushes is going to backfire someday. Bill is lucky that he hasn’t sent his producers to confront the wrong people in the wrong situation.
Please tell me what liberal extremist are? Don’t lump dems with the repugs you look like a repug apologist. You sound like some repug US/Israelis who kill civilians and then blame civilians for being where they dropped bombs.
Mr. Olbermann doesn’t incite death, riots or dirty tricks.
Maybe you should be a shade of pink.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:23 pmOh I see, Bill O is trying to make amends for his inane statement, blaming the victim, and now hes trying to make up for his inane statement by pretending to be supporting a foundation for victims.
And, oh my god, Amanda pointed out O’Reillys hypocrisy!!

How did he blame the victim? and what is the Mel Gibson factor in all of this? Please answer me those 2 questions?
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:28 pmThe problem, stupid troll, is that most people with the patience and intellectual capacity for honest debate are united in condemnation of Bill0. He’s a proven liar. He’s a bully. He’s a punk. He shouts down anyone who dares to disagree and attacks those who call out the presence of “the logs in his eyes”.
He’s the effing T.V. poster boy for the shameful ignorance, and greed, that have caused most of the crises we are facing today. He’s a sexual predator who frequently blames victims for being victims. He regularly defends the indefensible. If I accidentally stepped on a pile of Bill0, I’d burn my shoes.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:30 pmI can decide on whom I reply too, thus I have the ability not to reply to your questions because of your inability to hold an honest debate. That is my choice and I dont force that on anyone else, so therefore I dont believe I can set the tone for anyone else and how they reply I can only hope that anyone that wants a reply from me can address me with the respect they want others to address them.

March 23rd, 2009 at 10:32 pmLets say you created a gay victims group… then some pundit guy said it was the gay guys fault he got beat up or killed….and then later that same guy wanted to be an advocate for your group.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:32 pmBtw not one person here has even discussed the exact words that Bill O’Reilly used in his radio program and how it was blaming the victim and what it has to do with Mel Gibson. That shows me we have alot of talking heads here that are here only to find someone to fight, not to debate the facts and get to the TRUTH.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:33 pmBTW, stupid troll. Did Bill0, at least, have the courage to incite his own minions to go after TP or, did one of the many Reichwhiner apologists on ReichRadio and the web send out the clarion call?
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:34 pmGame of Life,
Liberal extremism is out there. It is just not amplified by the media like Fox is doing with conservative extremism. What I am talking about are inconsiderate acts like hanging an effigy of Sarah Palin during the elections. There is countering conservative thought through argument and debate, then there is crossing the line and using the wrong approaches.
For the record, I never said that Olbermann incites “death, riots or dirty tricks”. Perhaps I was being a bit vague, but I was indicating that he is no saint with his words. Granted, I don’t think that Olbermann will do the damage that an Ann Coulter, Michelle Malkin, or Sean Hannity will do to society.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:34 pmAnd such is why your attempt to debate, to make your point, will fail
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:35 pmExactly Xisithrus, if the guy stated he it was his fault he got beat up because he was gay and that he should not have been gay to avoid getting beat up then it would be ludicris to have him speak at a gay victims group and if that group did have him speak there, what validity would you then give that group? I myself would give it very little and probably brush it off as not the most effective way for me to use my money to help victims.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:36 pmHey, did you guys know you can win a debate by ignoring the other side?
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:36 pmThe victim in question didnt get to state it was her fault, or not, and O’Reilly took the liberty to do so. What gives O’Reilly the right to blame the victim or speak in their defense [which he didnt]?
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:39 pmO’Reilly did not defend this girl publicly, he castigated her!!
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:41 pmHere you go, stupid troll. The words of the man himself.
“I think it’s safe to say that if Mel Gibson didn’t get drunk, he wouldn’t be in this terrible situation he finds himself in,” said O’Reilly. “And if a young woman, 18-year-old Jennifer Moore of Harrington Park, NJ, didn’t get drunk, she’d be alive today.” Bill0
I couldn’t care less about Gibson but, Bill0 is blaming a victim for being a victim. He is, to reasonable people, defending the actions of a horrible criminal. If you can’t figure out why sensible people hate his shtick? It’s beyond the power of mere conversation to convince you.

I can tell you this if to win or even get your viewpoint across you have to resort to hatred or name calling or vial statements or use other peoples words out of context to win, then I will loose every time.

I notice you are avoiding me despite the fact that I did none of the name calling you suggest. Are you still pooling your resources?
I am a victim’s advocate and have been doing this work for over twenty years. The easiest thing for those “not victimized” is to blame the victim. This gives those not victims (yet) control over their lives; “this wouldn’t happen to me because..” “I would never go there…” “or do that…” therefore we can blame the victim. She did something we would not do, so we can feel safe and maybe be safe. Yet most victims of violent crime are victimized in their homes.
It is all about control. When one is the victim of a violent crime, it is a loss of control of one’s self and the control is gained by another whose objective is all about power and control.
O’Lielly is a power and control freak; he is a perpetrator of violence and a criminal. He should be treated as such and shunned from civilized society.
The trolls here (misguided and flailing) now want to blame Amanda for calling him out on what he is – it is simply another victim blaming tactic and a need to keep oneself safe from the likes of the O’liely’s of the world. Just a heads up, trolls and idiots, blaming victims of crime will not guarantee your safety, ever!
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:53 pmAs if Mel Gibson was raped. Wise up folks, when you drive drunk its your fault. When a woman is raped its not. Its amazing to me that people would agree with such inane logic, from a pundit, no less, comparing driving drunk to rape.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:53 pmIt would appear as though an organized troll squad has been sicked on the site. And no, I didn’t misspell sicked.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:55 pmbrickq,
Couple of things before I leave this thread for good and go watch a repeat of The Daily Show (which sounds much more entertaining to me than reading your comments.)
I asked you to give us a single quote of what Amanda said, and you replied: “I would Wayne but because of the attention this has got and the fact you are here posting also I assumed most honest people who debate issues are knowledgeable of those issues.”
Which means you could not find one because none exist.
As for any connection to Mel Gibson, that’s not the point at all. The point of highlighting what O’Reilly said has nothing to do with his comparison that getting drunk may allow bad things to happen. If that’s all you heard, then you missed what he said that was offensive, and that is that it was the victim’s fault that she got drunk and was raped and murdered. Don’t try to sidetrack the issue and saying that he was merely comparing her drunken behavior to Mel Gibson’s, which is still a stupid comparison because nobody ended up raped and murdered when Gibson got drunk and expressed his true feelings about Jews, without inhibition.
And, by looking at your evasive replies to other commenters, I feel I wasted enough of my time with you.
Have a nice life.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:55 pmThis will be my last post since no one will take the time to debate civilly. Bill posed the question of responsibility. He chose to highlight that the girl that was murdered, was out drinking, using and fake id, walking in a bad area at night and not only that she separated from her friend and was alone. He stated she didnt deserve what this creep did but there is a point where you have to protect yourself and have show some responsibility for your actions like Mel Gibson. Mel Gibson abuse of alcohol has cause him a lot of his problems and he needs to take responsibility for driving drunk and the words he used in describing a race of people. In Bills eyes they girl did not show in responsibility in her actions which lead to her death. He in no way said she deserved what she got or “had it coming”. If you get drunk and lie down on train tracks and get killed there is a degree of responsibility on your part for your own death. Bill also used those two examples to show how we as a nation are wanting to shirk are responsibility for some things or situations we get ourselves into too. Personal responsibility is gone. Now the girls situation on Bills show had nothing to do with Alexia and how she was victimized. Alexia had taken common sense actions to prevent it from happening yet it happened anyway. Amanda deceivingly used that radio show to try and hurt Bill and in doing so hurt an organization that is trying to help victims. How ironic that the very thing she points at Bill for doing she did by accident and now doesn’t want to take responsibility for it and just say “Im sorry”
This was my first day to check out this website and give it a chance. What I found out is there is no honesty here and you guys will not have to deal with me again. Good-Bye
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:56 pmDoes anyone else find it ironic that a defender of Bill0, a man who constantly calls anyone he doesn’t agree with or can’t understand a “pinhead”, is so upset by “name calling”.
March 23rd, 2009 at 10:57 pmMel Gibson drove drunk, he did not rape a young woman, he paid the price for that [jail, probation etc]
The young woman made some bad choices but she IS NOT responsible for her demise. She didnt commit suicide. She was murdered by a sick individual.
March 23rd, 2009 at 11:00 pmAnother troll who can’t take the heat? Good bye!
March 23rd, 2009 at 11:01 pmWe are not talking honesty, we are talking logic. Mel Gibsons drunk driving has no correlation to a young womans rape. Its obscene to even equate the two.
March 23rd, 2009 at 11:03 pmPoor, stupid, troll. Whines about his questions not being answered then runs away when they are repeatedly answered. Also typical.

I should have been paying more attention, and I can laugh about it now, but I still don’t think it was fair to be ridiculed for being a victim.

I must disagree. If the stupid troll had been looking for a fight? He would not have buggered off when I provided the precise quote he was demanding. Personally, I think they flee in terror as soon as one holds a mirror in front of their faces. Cowards, bullies, and punks are not noted for joining a fair fight. Though, considering their delusional lack of intellect, said fights are not really “fair”.

Rape is a serious matter and to attack a victim. Well I’m obviously not surprised. You all defend rapists, baby killers, and all around scum (aclu former president gets caught with kiddy porn and you defend him). So seriously I hope God is watching you all and writing down names.

Do not assume too much.
March 24th, 2009 at 12:47 amI see the tanked wife has missed the point too.
You see, stupid trollette, saying “if she hadn’t gotten drunk she’d be alive today” is what’s called blaming the victim. It’s the same as saying that if you were raped and murdered in your own bed, it would be your fault for not having bars on your windows. It’s hateful and disgusting to fully cognizant humans with the slightest bit of empathy.
And when it comes from a lying, bullying, sexual predator like Bill0, it’s doubly disgusting. Then, when this disgusting piece of excrement attacks those who dare to accurately report his own words, it’s even worse. Bill0 could have made this issue go away by simply saying, “I was wrong and insensitive and I’m sorry”. But he hasn’t the class, or any other redeeming human qualities, that would make such a confession possible.
So, stupid trollette, you can take God’s list of names, fold it four ways, light it on fire, and shove it up your Southern orifice. With my most sincere worst wishes.

March 24th, 2009 at 3:30 amDear Ms. Terkel,
First, let me compliment you on your excellent writing and journalist skills. I never pay attention to who writes for Think Progress until Bill O’Reilly is chasing them with ax.
You have to understand that you’re dealing with a mental case, Ms. Terkel. I knew Bill in Camarillo Hospital. He, Glenn Beck and I shared a room (the staff called it a room. We called it a cell). It was during this period that Bill revealed to me that he had fantasies about hurting people. Just with words. Not his fists, he said. I refused to take my medications unless I got another roommate. Anyway, I don’t know why they let him out (his yelling bothered me), but he may be one of those patients who has to go back every six months or something like that. The doctors there aren’t real subtle about telling patients they’re nuts.
Bill’s a likeble enough guy if you’re into sledge hammers. It also helps if you like to pull the wings off flies. I remember Bill saying that he didn’t care if anyone liked him. Anyway, no one ever liked him anyway so he didn’t have to worry about it. And I wouldn’t if I were you.

March 25th, 2009 at 1:29 am@smokey1957,
You are right. This website is filled with primarily young immature people. Most of them from Digg.com—a cult of left wing bots.
Younger individuals are more net savvy and likely to be indoctrinated into liberalism (like thinkprogress) due to the cult-like nature of massive city populations which don’t exactly make one feel comfortable opposing what people around them have been born and bred to believe. When you turn the TV to a MSM channel people ought to find it odd how everyone is in lockstep agreement on every issue with perhaps the exception of moot concerns.
Where was their response when they got PUNKED by UPS?
