I have just seen the worst example of professional jealousy..EVER!!!
I happened to be channel surfing when I came across the O'Really show on Faux (I thought I'd blocked that channel...hmmm?) and he was pitching a fit about Bill Moyers getting a Peabody. "How could they give it someone who was so liberal, how could they give it someone who is such an activist", blah blah blah...and to his studio guest, some fossil from the Moonie Times said "He's not even a journalist anymore, he's just an activist"...I couldn't STOP laughing...if his make-up hadn't have been caked on so thick I swear you'd see him turning green with envy...

What a pathetic little weasel dick (and please be aware I am not being derogatory towards weasels, or their dick's for that matter)...if ANYONE isn't it lock-step with the * administration they are automatically a liberal, an activist or a trouble-maker....

Methinks that Al has some new material for the "O'Franken Factor" tomorrow!!!

2. He's just jealous because Moyers is a real journalist
O'Reilly has no right to even speak Moyers' name.

4. This is too funny... Especially since Franken busted him on that CSPAN
book event precisely for falsely claiming he had won a Peabody award, no wonder he was going on about Moyers, LOL... We must feed this to Franken immediately! To the email booth, Batman!

7. exactly...

I'm somewhat convinced that he (O'R.) does stuff, says stuff, just to get his name in print and get some sort of feud going with someone so he can generate some publicity and validate himself on his show -- i.e., "I must be doing something right since they attack me so much". Probably if we'd all quit paying attention, he'd go away.

6. Poor little O'Really
:nopity:

I think he's actually starting to crack, and may be ready for a facility in the near future.

8. O'Reilly and the rest are coming UN-glued
because they know that the end of the conservative wave is near.
After a debilitating defeat in November (at all levels of government), the "right-wing" will be scrambling for reasons to justify their existence.

9. Isn't a Peabody better than a Polk?
:) Just wondering.

10. Un-FN-believable.
Edited on Tue Apr-06-04 11:13 PM by countmyvote4real
I don’t watch Faux. I don’t follow O’Lielly. I do watch Bill Moyers whenever I can because he covers all facets of a story. In short, Moyers makes me think about it without telling me how to think about it. You know, like a REAL journalist. Remember them? They are so hard to come by these days.

Doesn’t O’Lielly know that they don’t give Peabody awards for shouting? What a pompous idiot. With enough rope, most morons will hang themselves. O’Lielly just bought a hemp farm.
