And yours was a beautiful job. I missed it at first, but upon further inspection
This is an interesting little natural experiment that I've been prodding along a bit. Can the Internet take down O'Reilly by lampooning him to death? Can we so saturate the Net with images like your little gem here, little 1-liner jokes at his expense, etc., that we actually do him & Fox serious damage? What a wonderful coup, and first step in taking back the cultural messages in America.
bravenak
(34,648 posts)We have tried fighting them, now we need to laugh at them while fighting them. He deserves even more of this. I might need to fire up twitter and tweet them out. All we need is for enough photos to go viral and then the tv will pick up on it. We need a thousand folks to make ten thousand photos. I'd love that.
Jackpine Radical
(45,274 posts)Various famous scenes from history, with O'Reilly's face somewhere in the mob.
We'd call it "Where's Billo?"
I think later I may try to work this up into an OP to see if we can get any enthusiasm/help on it.
Have I mentioned lately that I love your evil mind?
bravenak
(34,648 posts)I think I can place him into a few scenes of 'Where's Billo?' A DU project. I remember when they did it to the french ex president. I think it was him.

Bill O'Reilly Surprised At Civility Of Black Restaurant Patrons
By Logan Murphy - 9/23/07
Summary: Discussing his recent dinner with Rev. Al Sharpton at the Harlem restaurant Sylvia's, Bill O'Reilly reported that he "couldn't get over the fact that there was no difference between Sylvia's restaurant and any other restaurant in New York City. I mean, it was exactly the same, even though it's run by blacks, primarily black patronship." O'Reilly added: "There wasn't one person in Sylvia's who was screaming, 'M-Fer, I want more iced tea...'"

O'Reilly surprised "there was no difference" between Harlem restaurant and other New York restaurants
ANDREW IRONSIDE - September 21, 2007
During the September 19 edition of his nationally syndicated radio program, discussing his recent trip to have dinner with Rev. Al Sharpton at Sylvia's, a famous restaurant in Harlem, Bill O'Reilly reported that he "had a great time, and all the people up there are tremendously respectful," adding: "I couldn't get over the fact that there was no difference between Sylvia's restaurant and any other restaurant in New York City. I mean, it was exactly the same, even though it's run by blacks, primarily black patronship." Later, during a discussion with National Public Radio senior correspondent and Fox News contributor Juan Williams about the effect of rap on culture, O'Reilly asserted: "There wasn't one person in Sylvia's who was screaming, 'M-Fer, I want more iced tea.' You know, I mean, everybody was -- it was like going into an Italian restaurant in an all-white suburb in the sense of people were sitting there, and they were ordering and having fun. And there wasn't any kind of craziness at all." O'Reilly also stated: "I think black Americans are starting to think more and more for themselves. They're getting away from the Sharptons and the [Rev. Jesse] Jacksons and the people trying to lead them into a race-based culture. They're just trying to figure it out. 'Look, I can make it. If I work hard and get educated, I can make it."
As Media Matters for America has documented, O'Reilly has made a number of provocative statements about race. During the February 5 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor, in a conversation about President Bush's description of Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) as "articulate," O'Reilly told Temple University education professor Marc Lamont Hill: "Instead of black and white Americans coming together, white Americans are terrified. They're terrified. Now we can't even say you're articulate? We can't even give you guys compliments because they may be taken as condescension?" Other examples include:
* On the June 7 edition of The O'Reilly Factor, O'Reilly said of Edwin Roy Hall -- the man charged with murdering 18-year-old Kelsey Smith after abducting her from the parking lot of a Target store in Overland Park, Kansas: "[T]his guy who is charged has a child and a wife. You know, he's like white-bread guy. And we're all going, 'What is that?' "
* On the August 16, 2006, edition of The O'Reilly Factor, O'Reilly argued extensively for "profiling of Muslims" at airports, arguing that detaining all "Muslims between the ages of 16 and 45" for questioning "isn't racial profiling," but "criminal profiling."
* During the April 12, 2006, broadcast of The Radio Factor, O'Reilly claimed that on the April 11 edition of The O'Reilly Factor, guest Charles Barron, a New York City councilman, had revealed the "hidden agenda" behind the current immigration debate, which, O'Reilly said, was "to wipe out 'white privilege' and to have the browning of America." O'Reilly suggested that this "hidden agenda" included plans to let "people who live in the Caribbean, people who live in Africa and Asia ... walk in and become citizens immediately..."

(34,648 posts)I wonder why he though black diners were like the Dothraki.
freshwest
(53,661 posts)But thinks that his family was 'more American' than the Obamas?
Honestly, Obama is such a believer in the USA, he's probably got an American flag tattooed on his tush.
The kind of things that Brillo and other rightwingers spew daily is so low down and trashy, I don't have a box to put them in, really.
I never heard a 'journalist' trash talk like they do when I was growing up. I listened to Rush for a while to see what was up. He sounded like he was falling down intoxicated half the time. Turned out he was high on Oxycontin.
That is why Obama, Van Jones and others offend these goons so much. It puts a lie to all their claims of being superior. They cannot compete, period.
It's like when you're close to a person who really has their mind on higher stuff. You can literally feel it.
What these propagandists emit is more like what's at the bottom of a septic tank. It's repellant. But not as bad as the 'pundits.' They're just filth.
I hate to talk that way about another human being, but that's the vibe. At least it is to me, anyway.
Just sayin'
Hey, is it -43 up there? Saw a report that Alaska is that cold. It's just kinda... well, it doesn't know what it is here now.

You can return the favor in 35 or so years. If a red head, born on the 4th of July ever runs for President, vote for him. When Obama was elected he soooo wanted to be Sasha's best friend. Just to ride in the black SUV with Secret service.
