Duers used to do this ALL the time, back in the day. Please kick !

Even if there's only an infinitesimal chance it would make a difference...
And little comes from our effort, Please send an email expressing your outrage
over O'Reilly's war with David Corn. David Corn has championed our beliefs
for many years. Don't we owe him two minutes of our time? And don't we have
a couple hundred thousand voices??

Just Say Something ! Anything. Demand an apology. Demand a firing. Make believe you're a repuke. Duers used to do this ALL the time, back in the day. I'd like to think back then we probably, sometime, somewhere did make a difference.


David Corn:
"But I have to say I was surprised by the use of rhetoric that had a violent tone to it. And the fact that after saying that, neither Bill O'Reilly or anybody at FOX, including some of the people I used to work with there, amicably, felt obligated to say well, you know, that's going too far. Apparently they think it's proper for one journalist to call another one names and also to say they ought to be put in the kill zone.

The thing that bothers me most about that, is that not that it scares me off the story or anything, but I have family members, I have friends who are concerned about me now. And why? Only because I'm doing my job as a reporter in Washington, D.C., not in a war zone, and yet they now fear that, you know, that language like that might have repercussions. I don't know."

I am totally disgusted at the reckless and dangerous comments of Bill O'Reilly toward a fellow journalist, David Corn. Fire him, make him apologize but DO SOMETHING ! This is very serious and David's friends and family are scared for him. Bill has gone too far. His actions border on (if not are) criminal.

O'Reilly as a 'another journalist'. He is NOT and never was a journalist. Afaik, he was a tabloid gossip host then went to Fox.

They should get Al Franken to go after him again, he used to drive O'Reilly crazy.
