How in hell can this man be employed in news media...?

i am so totally, flat-out, jaw-on-the-floor flabbergasted at the words that come out of this guy's mouth and, fercryinoutloud, he still has a JOB...!

The wisdom of Bill O'Reilly

ACLU is a bigger threat to freedom than Al Qaeda. Bill O'Reilly began a segment of Westwood One's The Radio Factor by saying that "Al Qaeda is not the most intense threat to your freedom -- it's the American Civil Liberties Union." From the March 30 edition of The Radio Factor:

O'REILLY: All right, this hour's devoted to the most intense threat to your freedom in the world. It's not Al Qaeda. Al Qaeda is not the most intense threat to your freedom -- it's the American Civil Liberties Union. And I will back up what I say.



anyone, in any capacity whatsoever, who is hired to present himself to the public as a credible spokesperson simply cannot be allowed to remain employed after uttering such slanderous, murderous, hate-filled garbage... the only possible rationale i can come up with is that he was never hired to be credible in the first place and stays on solely thanks to his entertainment and ratings value...

thanks to Media Matters for this stomach-turning item...
