O'Reilly, the amazing talking asshole, strikes again

hey... just put your mouth in gear... don't bother to engage your brain or in any way monitor what's coming out... as long as the ratings are high and people keep tuning in to join you in your assault on human intelligence, just keep right on blabbing...

(thanks to media matters...)

On the January 9 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, Fox News host Bill O'Reilly said, "[I]f [former Soviet dictator] Joseph Stalin was still alive, he'd be the UNICEF [United Nations Children's Fund] spokesperson." O'Reilly made his comment during a segment in which he and co-host E.D. Hill were discussing a remark UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador and singer Harry Belafonte reportedly made on the January 8 television and radio broadcast of Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez's weekly show. As a January 8 Associated Press article reported, Belafonte called President Bush "the greatest terrorist in the world":

"No matter what the greatest tyrant in the world, the greatest terrorist in the world, George W. Bush says, we're here to tell you: Not hundreds, not thousands, but millions of the American people ... support your revolution," Belafonte told Chavez during the broadcast.

The next day, UNICEF issued an official statement saying that the comments represented Belafonte's own views "as a private citizen" and not as a member of the organization. It further stated that it did not endorse Belafonte's remarks.

Belafonte met with Chavez in Venezuela as part of a delegation of Americans that included actor and activist Danny Glover and Princeton University professor Cornel West.

i'm not sure i'd call george bush the "greatest" terrorist in the world but he's undoubtedly the most highly-placed...
