Bill O'reilly is the Penguin? - Who Knew?



Bill O’Reilly got a taste of his own medicine on Wednesday when a man with a camera chased him down and peppered him with questions outside a D.C. hotel where Newt Gingrich was holding a fundraiser. His response? Apparently, to hit said man with an umbrella.

1. Isn't this "assault?"
When you hit someone with an object, isn't that considered an assault? :shrug:

2. funny how private citizen John Edwards can be stalked relentlessly and
the "exposure" is celebrated ...

yet PUBLIC FIGURE B.S. O'Lielly deigns to go out in public and someone doesn't kiss his ass, and it will be "a horrendous attack on privacy", if not a punishable offense ON THE VICTIM ...

7. I honestly don't understand the obsession with Fox News
If you walk in midtown during a rainstorm you will be hit by umbrellas at least 3 times per block.

I wish this was the worst thing O'Reilly did this week but it doesn't even register.

11. Well of course!
What should we expect from an asshole like O'Reilly. If an OWS person had done that O'Reilly would have called it violence.

13. Don't mess with Bill O'Reilly!
Or he'll hit you with his UM-brella!

K&R, this needs to be seen. Not only do they encourage violence, they actively participate... and then run crying to the police!
