I apologize if this has been reposted ad nauseum. I just had to do it. I had to. This just confirms what most of us already knew. The man is a sociopath and needs help, serious help. I feel for his family. This will no doubt be taken down from YouTube but I have a copy and it will live on. All of his bullshit about being an honest, regular guy "watching out for you"- what a fraud. What a hack. What an asshole.

Thanks.

32. On the original YouTube version, it said something like: Bill O'Reilly goes berserk
on an intern."

How much you wanna bet the intern accidentally made an extra copy of it for his files?

46. I bet O'Reilly, like many bosses, would fire any employee
who blew up at him in that way.

1. "...to play us out"
The prompter must have said something like "Sting to play us out". Meaning either to say the copy verbatim or as direction- as in "cue sting here to play out the end of the show".

In any case, the hysterics are nothing but an honest look at the man's utter lack of self control. You can see this in his demeanor frequently on his show. This is the stuff of wing nuts, honey to their lips.

23. (just some technical asides)
(just some technical asides) The Technical Director flashes black for some reason. Those black flashes are likely signals of some kind. On a Grass Valley switcher Black is right next to a camera input on the switcher. The Technical Director (TD) is the person that executes the commands of the Director- ie

DIRECTOR: Standby to take one.
DIRECTOR: Take one, cue talent.
TECHNICAL DIRECTOR: Actually punches the switches on the "switcher".

2. I don't even work in the industry

and put together that

"play us out" meant the music that would
wrap up the show.

Geez- a psychopath with little knowledge of his trade?

What's he doing on TV?

:(

8. Oh dear God, I HOPE NOT!

Those poor kids in his class.

He wouldn't last one day as a teacher now.
The admins wouldn't put up with that crap!

I know- I substitute teach, myself.

52. According to Wikipedia, 2 years at a Catholic HS
English and history

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_O%27Reilly_%28commentator%29

And if you think he had nice hair in the video, check it out from 1975:



Nice coat too!

10. Forget about SNL - this is the funniest video I've seen in years! I can't get enough...
The chief bloviator who loves to "opine," sitting there screaming, "THERE'S NO WORDS THERE!!!"

OMG, f***in' hilarious. He looks to cute when his nostrils flare like a horse on the last lap of Pimlico.

Play it again, Sam.

I love when he jumps up, opens his jacket and yells, 'WE'LL DO IT LIVE!" like he's running head-first to throw himself on a live grenade.

As hard as this is to imagine, he's even more of an utter a**hole than we knew. (God, how is that possible??!)

14. Even worse: I was at the library recently.
I was looking for a book, and suddenly I saw a book written by Bill O'Really. It was a book about Parenting???? How to raise good kids? I took one look, got disgusted and quickly moved on.

As I left the scene, I thought "how could anyone read such garbage"?

29. I'm embarrassed at how many times I've watched it - and still laugh every time.
I can't wait to see KO tonight!
I'll bet Keith has watched this at least 200 times. No take-off of O'Reilly could be more ridiculous than the real thing.
What an egotistical imbecile that guy is.

THERE'S NO WORDS THERE!!!!!

34. The main characteristics of sociopathic behavior (which you do not list) are pathological lying,
and a lack of conscience.

44. Well...
Actually I'm not a fan of the labels sociopath or psychopath. To formal for my tastes. But what we do have is something as frightening as the feelings those terms carry. We can see through this video Billo's reaction to things he does not understand. Anger. Rage. I don't even care about his ignorance, what bothers me is how he reacts when something confronts that ignorance. Then again, considering how ill informed and ignorant he is of anything he chooses to talk about on his show maybe that is something more of a problem.

33. What a dumb, arrogant, crazy, batshit idiot
"Play us out" is poorly written, but he doesn't know what it means?

The throwing of the jacket at the end looks like something out of an SNL skit.

40. My pleasure.
Did you watch KO tonight?
He said he got thousands of emails about the O'Reilly tape (and, of course, he showed it in its entirety).
YouTube got 400,000 hits on that video, today.

WHAT A HOOT!!!!

37. Thank You, theFrankFactor--You're the best ! Coming up on Keith Oberman-MSNBC
I love your description-
I've been hoping it would be on Count Down!

I hope Keith shows other Inside Edition Videos of Billo--

"Gee Bill, here you are spouting a conspiracy theory! That's unamerican. Why do you hate this country, you two-faced hypocrite?
I'm not saying that you should be fired. I'm saying that Fox News has a BIG problem.
Just when was it that you turned to the dark side?"

Bill O'Reilly, when he was on Inside Edition, reports on Oswald's association with the CIA.

he actually reminds me of a teacher I had that was just as much of a snake, he would be such a private ass in class and the kids would be intimidated, then if anyone had the balls to report some of the negativity that came out of him, he would play it like the kids got problems and that any of the stuff that kid said was a lie....I wonder if he's still a teach or is friends with O' Reilly, maybe even works for FOX now, lol.

47. He's a professional, you have to give him that.
He was irrationally super pissed but he was still able to get into character and not show it. He's a wanna-be actor. Just like so many of the talking heads on TV. Don Henley had it so right in "Dirty Laundry".
