    OReilly has intelligent viewing, and Olberman is for laughs.

  2. jimbo422 says:

    Olbermann is a JERK

  3. Doug says:

    Nice contributions!

  4. Egg-Bert says:

    Olbermanns toupee must have been on too tight when he made his psychotic comments

  5. Doug says:

    Seriously, does BOR pay people to troll the internet and find forums like these? Like clockwork, wherever his ratings are listed, his minions show up to trash KO.

  6. Occam says:

    Oderman is a failed sports anchor, a failed serious news commentator, and now working at failing as comic buffoon. His whole “thing” based upon his parasitic attachment to Bill O. Without Bill O, Oderman is nothing, and has nothing.

    The previous comment was a response to Doug, who wrote: “Seriously, does BOR pay people to troll the internet and find forums like these? Like clockwork, wherever his ratings are listed, his minions show up to trash KO.”

    Whoaaa big numbers for Keith Slobbermans boy toy the ugly Rachel Maddow 416,000 viewers. Meanwhile O Reilly Blows her ugly face out of the water

  10. Egg-Bert says:

    Face it Joe. Keith Slobberman and his boy toy Rachel Maddow are trainwrecks. You and the Barack Hussein Obama sheep with drool dripping off your mouths like mindless drones better recognize Listen to Egg-Bert

  11. Bee says:

    Bill-o, is a bully–plain and simple. Interestly though, when folks like Donahue or Letterman engage him, he cowards. By the way, when did Bill become the morality police? After those sexual harassment accusations from a few years ago, he has a nerve trying to preach morality to anyone–especially teenagers.

  12. Egg-Bert says:

    Hey Joe? How is Countdown to no ratings a success? O Reilly destroys Overbite night after night. Overbite is a raving lunatic with a bad toupee

  13. Egg-Bert says:

    Hey Joe. O Reilly gets more than twice the viewers as Keith Slobberman. Face it Olberdork is a loser and the biggest sleazeball on TV. He calls the troops cold blooded killers. PMSNBC should suspend him. Olberdork is nothing put a pimple on an old ladys ass. Hes a bottom feeding scum of the earth. GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK . You heard it from Egg-Bert

  14. Joe says:

    thanks for clearing that up eggman. keep up the good work.

  15. Frag says:

    Maybe just maybe duggy most people are able to see KO for the bad sportscasting reject baffon he is

    Obviously these posts were written by IDIOTS! Bill O’Reilly drones are a danger to society!!! Bill O’Reilly is a joke – problem is, he doesn’t get it. He is the most pompous, arrogant, transparant, ill-informed knucklehead on cable television next to Glenn Beck. I can’t believe he tries to pass himself off as an independent. He is as much a right-wing mouthpiece as Rush Limbaugh. If he would just cop to it he might actually be given some degree of credibility. He presents as a fake and a poser with a thin skin and a streak of professional jealousy. When he tried to “factually” state that John Stewart’s audience was made up of stoned slackers, even referencing that his show conducted research to this effect, he tried to pass this off as a “joke” he was busted by the mainstream media. The fact is, Stewart’s show is watched by more educated viewers than O’Reilly’s, and if his show had an ounce of credibility they (and he) would have actually checked that out before embarassing themselves publicly. I also found it amusing that he actually referenced being snubbed by someone important who walked right by him and talked to John Stewart. It was hilarious how he couldn’t get over himself. Bill O’Reilly is a loud-mouthed windbag with a personal agenda and a small mind. I am so happy that Keith Olbermann (an extremely informed journalist who actually does research) is beating him in the ratings. I love his O’Reilly factor segments, and the fact that he nails the news, the issues and the spin bombarding viewers on a daily basis. Fox News and is on the level of Jerry Springer, and I believe viewers are addicted to the entertainment factor they have orchestrated. They are pandering to the lowest common denominator, and it is insulting!

    Olberman has a fine show.

    Overbite sucks

    I am seriously scared for humanity after reading most of these posts. I have noticed a very definitive trend though. The K.O. supporters offer their opinion, and then back it up with facts. On the other side, O’reilly fans just use all of the right-wing talking point nicknames for K.O. Do you notice that they won’t even call him by name most of the time. It has to be insults, facts and logic need not be employed. I really wish the O’reilly factor was as informative and nuetral as it claims to be. We would all be a lot better off if it was. Yes, K.O. has less viewers. Also notice that more than half of O’reilly’s viewers will be dieing off soon. It is no surprise that the older generations like B.O. since they too are unwilling to accpet that the world is changing. JMHO

    You know what is amazing about these posts, and others all over the web like them? The right wingers, neo-cons, “real Americans”…whatever they call themselves, are all so full of hate and anger. There’s no room in their minds for debate and compromise…just hate and anger.

    Take for example Egg-Bert and this post…

    “Hey Joe. O Reilly gets more than twice the viewers as Keith Slobberman. Face it Olberdork is a loser and the biggest sleazeball on TV. He calls the troops cold blooded killers. PMSNBC should suspend him. Olberdork is nothing put a pimple on an old ladys ass. Hes a bottom feeding scum of the earth. GOOD NIGHT AND GOOD LUCK . You heard it from Egg-Bert”

    Wow. First thing Eggie needs to do is get some professional help. I wonder if Eggie cusses the monitor as he writes all his hate? Seriously, you’re gonna pop a vein in your neck, Eggie.

    Second, have the courage to use your real name, Eggie. I’d be more inclined to take you and your views seriously if you weren’t hiding behind a lame name like Egg-Bert typing anonymously from the safety of your home. Would you dare say these things to Olbermann’s face, no…because you are a coward.

    If you don’t have the courage to post your full name when spewing hate, then you’re no better than the Klan hiding behind their cowardly white hoods.

    Next, there’s the complete lie about Olbermann and the cold blooded killers remark. Show me the proof on that one. You can watch every episode on the web…find it and back up this ridiculous claim.

    And then there’s the insults… Olberdork, Slobberman, PMSNBC…wow, the maturity level of the right is astounding. Perhaps, on election day, they’ll result to putting their fingers in their ears and yelling to avoid hearing the results when Obama wins.

    Grow up, right wingers…then maybe the rest of the world will actually take your party seriously.

  21. Stevie D says:

    I have to agree with D-Nich, because I respect Olbermann due to him bringing out the facts, and being willing to bash the Dems when they mess up, but for the most part the Republicans do it to themselves, and we have him tearing into them night after night.

    Maddow is good host and getting better, and I love her show because she is willing to have people like Patrick J. Buchanan and the J stands for J-ust can’t figure out why we’re not still living in the 50’s and 60’s.

    According to this guy, African-Americans should have been thankful for slavery indirectly, because we are better off now than we would have been if we would have stayed over there.

    Facts people and check your sources before you give a dumb response, because this was up on his own website, so don’t come with some garbage understand!

    The best 1-2 punch in news today, and that is proven with the fact that they research, and don’t just do what their boss tells them to do.

  22. Kevin says:

    Olbermann = BADASS

    O’Reily = JOKE

  23. Clarke D says:

    Bill Orally’s light is beginning to fade, along with FUX “news”. He’s nothing without his butt-fuck partner Murdock to set him on a pedestal a jerk him off.
