As Bill O’Reilly continues to sink deeper into the quick-sand of his own lies, an observer asks the musical question: “Won’t You Shut Up Bill O’Rielly?” The tune is set to ragtime, which the songstress explains is ‘appropriate for the age of O’Reilly’s audience.’ While it’s offered in snark, “Shut up Bill O’Reilly” would be excellent advice for the Fox bloviator…But discretion is not his style, when the famous O’Reilly temper flares.
Bill O’Reilly is a unparalleled instructor, if we credit him for teaching the age-old lesson which warns against throwing stones from your glass house. O’Reilly began his criticism of Brian Williams, from high atop his throne, which he allegedly earned by daring duty as a war correspondent. He failed to realize that Williams is held to a much higher standard, by NBC – which has a quaking fear of being accused of having any similarity to Fox. O’Reilly warmed to finger pointing and chiding Williams – and people began to pay attention for a change…And as the song says, “The old blowhard is hoisted on his own petard.” Suddenly a shouted “Because I SAID SO” is not the same as proof..O’Reilly has told the same old war stories innumerable times over the years, without question…Until now.
O’Reilly’s daring rescue of a photographer under fire in the Falklands.
Didn’t happen.
Remember when O’Reilly witnessed the murder of nuns in El Salvador?
Neither does he.
It’s 1977, and O’Reilly is directly outside at the exact moment that george de Mohrenschilt (associate of Lee Harvey Oswalt) shot himself in his Florida home.
He Wasn’t?
This is a really good one!
During the 1992 riots in LA, O’Reilly and his colleagues were “attacked by protesters.” According to O’Reilly.
“They were throwing bricks and stones at us,” O’Reilly said in a 2006 interview. “Concrete was raining down on us.”
Colleagues have no recollection other than a single man hurling a chunk of rubble at their camera. Why did the man hurl a piece of rubble?
The man was angered by O’Reilly’s limousine being parked in “the smoking remains” of his neighborhood. According to two former colleagues, the driver had been polishing the vehicle and O’Reilly yelled at the man, “Don’t you know who I am?”
That sounds like our Bill, ever sensitive to his surroundings. It’s important to have a polished limo in the midst of an alleged riot.
