O'Reilly can be such an ass, IMO. I can usually only watch him for about 2 minutes (or less), before I feel forced to channel surf. If I do watch him, it is usually for the entertainment value, in the darkest, most "black-humor" sense of the term. 

Plus, as a woman, when I see his show, I sometimes think to myself:

Can one imagine being married to him? The idea sends chills up my spine - and not in a good way.

The scary thing about this clip is the rabidness of O'reilly He is one spewing angry lunatic and he appeals to the basest parts of the human instinct. I cannot believe this person has his own television show. I do not like Geraldo either, but as someone that lost my cousin who was the same age as me when we were 16 to drunk driving, immigration has nothing to do with the issue. People driving drunk is the problem.

I do agree, julia, but I think it's also another way for people to vent their frustration over illegal immigration; "If they weren't here, they wouldn't have killed this person".

O'Reilly, to me, is a complete Grinch. That is my main problem with him. I realize life is not always a bowl of cherries, but sometimes I wonder if he's ever even had five minutes of  "happy" in his entire life.

That, plus he is just rude, IMO. He is the epitome, to me, of someone who can "dish it out" but can't take it themselves.

Watching him just usually wears me out, no matter what his "issue of the day" is that he has under so-called "discussion".

Here is another clip of O'Reilly being a complete dick with a young man that lost his father on 9-11

It's really hard to watch. The funny and also sad part of Bill O'Reilly (to me) is that I think he really has started to buy his own publicity, and believes he is actually right about everything he says, and nobody else's opinion ever counts, if it does not coincide with his, either (and sometimes, even if it does, he doesn't give them a chance to talk).

I watch CNN. Seriously, I will watch Bill O'Reilly for a few minutes sometimes, just for the dark humor I find it can entail for me. For me, this is somewhat like reading The National Enquirer (which I sometimes do for the same reason).

I cannot believe his seeming overwhelming popularity with the general pubic. The only person I can take seriously on the entire FOX network is Greta Van Susteran.

i only watch the O'Reilly factor in very short bursts on very rare occasions.  i find it's wonderful to get one's heart racing and blood pumping.  He can make my temper flare in no time flat.  i have XM Radio and i happened to listen to this exchange this morning on their Fox News channel.  Without the visuals, i could really focus on the voices and it was alarming.  They both sounded deranged though i do have to agree that Geraldo was the lesser of two evils in the exchange.  O'Reilly simply would NOT admit that drunk driving as a whole was an issue in VA.  He only wanted an excuse to go off on a rant against illegal immigrants.  It amazes me how often he takes a short pause to remind everyone just how "fair and balanced" his show and Fox News are.  If he says it often enough, i guess he thinks that makes it true.  He is such a pompous, abusive ass and he never gives his guests a chance to really speak unless they agree totally with him.  It's sad to have to acknowledge that more Americans probably get their news from him and his ilk than any other news source.  God help us.........slave luci

Sir nice to see someone else is a fan.  i have my parents hooked on him.  Not sure whether i liked him better on sportscenter or countdown.  His show shows a totally different insight on the news.  Things you never hear about elsewhere.

Who does overman ever have on who disagrees with him, like O'Reilly had Geraldo on. Or is that why all you O'Reilly bashers LIKE overman - because he's all Leftist, all the time

Keith might not have anyone on who disagrees with him but he offers insight from others who are in power and know what is going on in the political circles.  Look at his commentators coming from different credible news sources.  Maybe you disagree with his guests with such intelligent insights?

I don't care if they're drunk or sober, illegal aliens shouldn't be in our country, period.
What did Geraldo mean by saying that , "those people were lured here?"
