Franken just played a clip from O'Reilly

O'reilly said he went to vietnam because he 'did not get to go' during the war. Well, Franken said O'reilly was born in 1949, doing a search I discovered he was born 9/10/49 Bill O'Reilly
... 10 Sep 1949, William James O'Reilly born in Manhattan. ... 16 Jul 2002,

1. Good question - think anyone in the media

besides Franken will check into it? Maybe Olbermann (he does seem to enjoy O'Reilly's foibles!)

4. Interesting?

Maybe he pulled a Cheney and college deferred his ass out of Vietnam. I always laugh at these guys who say they didn't get the chance to go, when they could have volunteered if they really felt like it was worth it.
