HOST UNHINGED AFTER SALES FIGURES REVEALED; CALLS DRUDGE 'THREAT TO DEMOCRACY'

TalkerAuthor 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!

1. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

:LOL:

This guy is such a joke. I haven't seen such a fragile ego in so long.

[kainah]

2. so Clinton-Franken-Moore vs. O'Reilly-Coulter breaks down like this

2,124,063 Clinton-Franken-Moore against
795,355 for O'Reilly-Coulter.

YEAH!!!! Proof, as if we needed any, that our side is more literate, at least.

[Salviati]

3. wow, what a psycho:

"There is no other cure than to kill Matt Drudge," O'Reilly charged on the IMUS in the MORNING radio show.

"I just want to tell everybody that Matt Drudge is smoking crack - right now, in South Miami Beach on Washington Avenue... And the authorities should know it."

[Guaranteed]

19. LOL

What's O'Reilly doing then? Sniffing glue? God, he's a clown.

[Frangible]

4. awww

I think poor O'Rielly had yet another temper tantrum.

[Langis]

5. lol

I guess Drudge isn't all bad.

[Blue-Jay]

6. Hahaha!

Hey Bill! Suck it, you asshole. Franken OWNS you, you lying piece of crap. He's probably a quicker draw in a gunfight as well, so you've no chance to "shoot him between the head". What a dick.

[davidinalameda]

7. Poor Bill

I think he's the one smoking crack in South Beach

he really needs to go back to Inside Edition or whatever piece of trash TV show spawned him

[Intelsucks]

8. O'Reilly has hated Matt Drudge ever since

Drudge accused him of trying to "move in" on Limbaugh's time slot with his "new" radio show. O'Reilly decided to get into talk radio right about the time Rush lost his hearing. Drudge called him on the carpet for it, and he's hated him ever since.

[Cannikin]

10. Who DOES like Drudge...besides Rush?

He and Rush have gotten really close lately. It seems like Drudge is the 'outlet mall' for Rush's stories. The Drudge site seems to me like the offspring of 'Rush Limbaugh' and 'Hard Copy'.
Oh yeah...and where's Marta?

[Intelsucks]

11. Rush and Drudge have been birds of a feather

for a long time.

[thom1102]

15. Must be boyfriends...

It would explain a lot.

[arcane1]

9. aww, poor Billy-boy's diapers are ALWAYS wet

aren't they?

:evilgrin:

[LTR]

12. "that is a threat to democracy, I think."

You THINK?!?!?!

O'Liely is a clown. Anything that goes against his facist, double-standard world view is 'undemocratic' or 'un-American'.

The only thing undemocratic and un-American is Bill O'Liely.

Besides, he's a whiny bitch!

[rocktivity]

13. Thanks for the early Christmas present, Matt!

From http://www.drudgereport.com/mattbc.htm
NIELSEN, the same company that ranks O'Reilly #1 on Cable TV, currently places O'Reilly at #6 for the year on the nonfiction charts -- trailing rival Al Franken by nearly 30%!
This is the best part--what else can Shill O'Rielly do, call Neilsen are a bunch of liars? Why keep the sales such a secret anyway, so that they CAN lie? Neilsen makes their TV ratings public and the world keeps turning.

O'Reilly ranks #63 on USA TODAY's 2003 sales chart.
Clinton is #7, Franken #21, Coulter #58, Moore #60, Michael Savage #96.

Ever heard of terroristic threats, Shill? Or defamation of character?

14. Hannity didn't even make the list

.

[arcane1]

16. "There is no other cure than to kill Matt Drudge,"

and Bill says he's not a Republican! Sounds like one to me- the kill the tellers of truth attitude is 100% Repube

[SOteric]

17. Hey Bill, -

[Cannikin]

18. I feel a photoshop moment coming on.....

[heypunk]

20. I heard

that the list published by "smudge" was inaccurate

[kixot]

22. so what?

It still showcases this wanker as a true-blue american psychopath. Sociopath even, not to mention a pathological liar.

[rocktivity]

25. If Shill O'Reilly knows how many books he's sold

then he should say so. This isn't brain surgery--if Drudge's figures are incorrect, all Shill has to do is prove him wrong!

[ThoughtCriminal]

21. I'll bet Drudge wishes OReilly would sue him

Or maybe O'Reilly is dumb enough to think his book will get a boost if Drudge sues him.

[Bozita]

23. O'Reilly and Coulter's sales #s are inflated by bulk buying

Both books have the famous "dagger" designation in the NY Times Book Review.

[stanwyck]

24. this is an important distinction!

The bulk sales for rightwing books is real. Rightwing organizations buy up bulk orders to inflate the book's sales in order to create the perception that these books have a much larger popular base than they actually have. It's more Rovian hype. Dirty tricks to skew reality.

[GCP]

26. Yeah, and Ho-Really accuses Hilary of having bulk buys

When it's Coulter, Insannity and any other Regnery-published wack-job that's bought in bulk.

The hypocrisy would be astonishing if we weren't so inured to it by now.
