Friends, we have achieved orbitI just did a search on youtube and the O'Reilly rant is now up 47 times there, that I could find.
If you haven't heard the whole plot, raw story summarizes it well here:
http://rawstory.com/news/2008/Blogs_mock_video_depicting_Bill_OReilly_0512.html . For editing purposes, I'm leaving out the details about Billy's freak out itself, and just concentrating on the clip's dispersion:
main excerpts:
A video posted at YouTube this weekend showing a younger Bill O'Reilly with more hair -- and apparently more agita -- was beginning to draw attention at liberal blogs on Monday.
The bombastic Fox News host is known for taking the left to task for its bad language. In February, he played a montage of mostly-liberal celebrities cursing on television and complained, "If someone does that on my program? Believe me, they'd get scolded." He added, "They’d never dare do it here. You know why? Because they’d be called on it. And they’d be humiliated in front of millions of people."
In the newly revealed clip from Inside Edition, ... After twice blowing the rehearsal of his closing line, O'Reilly finally erupts, screaming, "We'll do it live. Fuck it! ... Fucking thing sucks!"
The video drew almost 400,000 views in a single day between the time it was first posted at YouTube on Sunday and when it was taken down for copyright violations. The liberal blogs have also been quick to pile on.
...
O'Reilly has already responded to the flap, suggesting, "That video was just me practicing for my conversations with Geraldo."
...
so the clip went up on youtube early Sunday night, spawned 5 copies (that I could count), including a hilarious Hilterfication spoof, but then all copies of the original got pulled promptly early yesterday (Monday) morning.
A message was posted on youtube that the clip was pulled at CBS's request due to copyright infringement.... boy did they work fast.
Too late though! By then copies had already been downloaded to dozens of bloggers sites online, including (to name just a few), crooks and liars, gawker, mediabistro, etc.
By noon it reached the Huffington Post, the Daily Kos, rattube, and a likely permanent home on DailyMotion (the UK equivalent of youtube minus as blatant and strictured media quote-unquote "copyright" fascism). Add to that a number one ranking on the viral site par excellence 2livefools and now it's really taking off.
By evening dozens of sites -- holytaco, mybreak, ecliptv, collegehumor, reddigulo, i think you get my point.....
and then tonight, after youtube goes back online following maintenance, at least 47 separate clips are running. They're going to be running around in circles the next few days, more like a chicken with its head cut off :rofl:
...
the lesson: in less than 36 hours this thing has already hit over a million and a half viewers. Give it a couple more days and the whole country will know about what we've known all along: that Bill O'Reilly is one of the angriest, ugliest, nastiest, most underhanded two-faced pricks in the entire cess pool that is the MSM.
To make sure of this KEEP Spreading It, via email, message boards, blogs, new feeds on youtube, everywhere. Time is of the essence here: the earlier we all get it swarming the heavier its impact will be. Likewise, the other lesson is one that we already knew but has all the more impressively been becoming common knowledge law this election season: there's a new voice reaching crescendo to a roar out here, beyond the talking heads and the pundits, their lies and manipulation, and the more we force the issue the more we bring them to their knees and remind them that there's a new era and collective voice of resistance to them to reckon with--- one that will in this generation render them useless and then defunct.
who's been "humiliated in front of millions of people" (his words) now you right wing race-baiting mop-top slack-jawed yokel dark matter gargling piece of shit? someone needs to find the clip where he says the above and combine it with the now infamous and legendary rant. this is just starting.... don't think this is a moot issue. enough "proper" conservatives hear about it and either Faux has to do something about its star child or his fake ass reputation is at least tarnished permanently. Enough people see it, and this WILL have an impact on the fragile power he and Faux have over too many of our nation's impressionable minds.
I'm loving it... your days are numbered billy. :smoke:
