Here are a couple interesting comments made during the past week, go ahead and digest these "fair and balanced" comments.
First he blames the TB mans actions on "Secular Progressives"?
Traditional values people put others on a par with themselves. That's the Judeo-Christian tenet. Love your neighbor as yourself. Secular Progressives put themselves above all others. That philosophy says "Me first, then I'll worry about you."
A couple days earlier while speaking with Jon McCain.
But do you understand what the New York Times wants, and the far-left want? They want to break down the white, Christian, male power structure, which you're a part, and so am I...

46. O'Reilly's comments are off-base ONLY if he's wrong about the guy's political persuasion, and if the guy's a personal injury lawyer, I would guess the chances of O'Reilly being wrong about him are somewhere around 100 to 1.
I think it's pretty funny to hear anyone talk about "new lows" from someone like Bill O'Reilly when we've got Democrats publicly trashing our President and aggressively seeking to prohibit funding of our military while we're in the middle of a war, along with an ex-President (Carter) similarly being the first former president in U.S. History to publicly demean a sitting President, also during wartime.

47. I don't understand....If Fox News and Bill O'Reilly is so "unfair and unbalanced" as some of you folks seem to think....you are obviously not watching, you are just listening to a crowd tell you its not.
Have you ever watched CNN, or even worse, the FAILING MSNBC....Chris Matthews, now there is a winner, He will combine a panel to discuss an issue, in that panel he will have maybe 5 people, 4 of those not including himself, are liberal and 1 conservative to defend the conservative ideas. Its a damned joke. Its neither fair or balanced, its like a school yard fight against the kid they don't like. Pathetic, they call that news and commentary. No, I call it a lynching against the views that MSNBC does not aspire to.
CNN is the same, I have seen them give news that endanger our troops, show the killing of an American soldier, without so much thought of the horror that the parents and loved ones of the soldier felt, they could care less. VP wife is an ex news commentator from CNN, she has said how disgusting the CNN channel is, in a recent interview which was suppose to be about her newest childrens books, the reporter wouldn't discuss the book he wanted politics (got her on there under false pretenses) after about 6 min of the BS she finally asked him why CNN was so intent on America losing the War? Yeah, you go girl, she totally caught the a-hole off guard.
Yes....I dare you to find a more fair and balanced news network than FOX, its the reason they are number 1.

48. O'Reilly is getting excited over nothing. American
whites own America and a good part of the rest of the world. They need not feel threatened by too many
events. This guy with TB behaved like a fool but
where is he now? He is under surveillance.
O'Reilly knows how to play to the audience.

49. And BTW, stop the mud-slinging against FOX without FACTS to back up the name calling. Its stupid and nobody cares what an idiot has to say.
If you can't understand the concept of hearing both views of an issue....change channels. I doubt they will even notice you are gone. :D

50. Once again the FOX foul-mouth piece of the far right wing has spewed his racist propaganda and exposed the truth about this immigration debate: It's not really about illegal immigrants, but non-white immigrants! Well Bill O, get use to it...there are more non-white people in this world than white ones, and yes, whites will soon be the numerical minority in the US. So unless you want the US to be one big southern plantation where the white folks rule and the people of color toil in the fields, the current power structure, which includes you and McCain, have got to go. Bye-bye.

51. I AM A SUPPORTER OF THE FACTOR ON MANY MANY SUBJECTS...BUT IN REFERENCE TO THE BLOGGER WHO COMMENTED THAT AN SUV DRIVER IS A KERRY SUPPORTER...I WOULD JUST LIKE TO SAY...IN THE WORDS OF MY KIDS...DUH.
CALL ME SENSITIVE OR WHATEVER...BUT THAT HAS TO BE THE DUMBEST COMMENT EVER. YEA..I HAVE AN SUV AND A "MINI-VAN" YOU TRY CARPOOLING WITH ONE OF THOSE ITTY BITTY TWO DOOR P.O.S. THINGS I WOULD REFER TO AS A SKATEBOARD. KEEP TO THE TOPIC...
THE TB GUY...HE IS F.O.S....HE KNEW WHAT HE WAS DOING..HE DIDNT CARE. THAT IS A BLATENT DISREGARD FOR ANYONE ELSE. NO ONE FORCED HIM TO GO TO ITALY...LIFE IS ABOUT THE DECISIONS WE MAKE. TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS AND FOR THE WORDS THAT COME OUT OF YOUR MOUTH.

52. Bill can make his own personal comments without it making the Fox news channel less "fair and balanced". Go Bill, we love you.

53. The TB story just doesn't make any sense. If the guy knew he was that contagious, would he take a plane, go to the woman he loved and marry her? Would he really take the chance of not infecting her? If he did this knowing how sick he was, knowing he could pass it to anybody breayhing the same air he is, the guy is either a dumb jerk or the meanest, foul, uncaring MF, that walks this earth.
Bill just ran out of things to say about the Ultra Liberal NY Times. If it is out to break down the White, Christian, Male Power Structure, wouldn't also mean their own downfall. along with every other Business.
Let's face the fact, Bill O'reilly is not a Reporter, he is a walking opinion, like many other TV Reporters. The difference being, Most other Reporters that want to speak their mind, tell you in advance, "This is my Opinion" Bill just goes from one to the other, like we are supposed to know it's his opinion. Bill is a mouse that roars, nobody with half a brain is listening.

54. The Fox News slogan “Fair & Balanced” applies to their news coverage. Bill O’Rilley is a comentator and, as such, reports things as he sees them. Not from a pure reporter’s perspective. Fox is the only news source that tells all sides of a story. The liberal left does not care for that as they would much rather see only their viewpoints on TV and in print. So, in typical fashion, the left tries to smear Fox as biased. In reality it’s the only complete source to find out what’s really going on. The ratings prove the point. People are not as dumb as the left would like to believe.

55. If you think the secular progressives are good for this country and that the New York Times doesn't slant the news for their best interests then you believe in the tooth fairy and the easter bunny.

56. I do love how if you don't agree with someone with a supposed "liberal, open mind", you're automatically labeled with David Duke, your opinion is propoganda, and if you even watch the program you're a fool. Very tolerant of ya! Also love how apparently phone sex makes you a hypocrite now too. Another winner. Do you people who claim to be liberal even realize that you act that the freaking thought police? Do you even think about what you type?

57. bill is right on the TB patient. Not about him being a SP but about the fact that he failed to consider what impact his actions might have had on other people. but you know, you can be a christain traditionallist and be just as selfish, values are not limited to one group of people, and selfishness seems to be pretty well distributed.

58. #51: AMEN JB. Socialized medicine is the deathknell for this country and the premier healthcare industry that we have. If Socialized medicine is so great, just visit some or our European neighbors. They all have it. Believe me, the benefits they get are not worth standing in line to receive. Think Walter Reed is a pig sty? Look as "some of the best" in Europe. I have and I am not impressed.

59. On a show which uses news as a vehicle to express personal views, O'Reilly has hit a new low. His comments are becoming increasingly bizarre.
The TB guy acted dangerously irresponsible; what in heaven's name does religion have to do with it? What a pitiful attempt to slander...whom?
The motives he ascribes to the NYT are similarly off-the-wall. Ok, he disagrees with their slant. Doesn't he go just a little over the top in ranting about their evil intentions and plans?
He's either completely out of touch with reality or desperate for attention.
Incidently, for people who MUST label everything, human secularism is focused on concern for HUMANITY. Organized religion isn't a prerequisite for morality, nor does it necessarily make a person more moral. It certainly has nothing to do with TB guy, and to try to connect the two is seriously reaching. How about letting people focus on their own spirituality, Bill, and not scrutinize their outward, vociferous proclamations of goodness, or lack thereof?
It's unfortunate that it's called Fox NEWS, as it misleads and influences so many people towards accepting it's views as actual news. Try the BBC for news, then form your OWN opinions.
