O'Reilly & Rivera Stick Up For Mel - Rip Olberman, Stewart & Colbert

O'Reilly blasts "smear merchants" and "vampires" criticizing Mel Gibson; Rivera smears Olbermann, Stewart, and Colbert

Summary: On his Fox News program, Bill O'Reilly called Mel Gibson's recent anti-Semitic comments "inexcusable," but said it is "more important" to discuss the "point where the media and individual Americans start to enjoy the suffering of rich and powerful people." Guest Geraldo Rivera later suggested that O'Reilly refer to "that schmuck from MSNBC," apparently MSNBC host Keith Olbermann; Rivera added that the "schmuck from MSNBC" is a "lowlife." Rivera also asserted that Comedy Central hosts Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert "make a living putting on video of old ladies slipping on ice and people laughing" and that they "exist in a small little place where they count for nothing."

I remember liking him at one time many years ago but apparently he made a pact with the devil.

Since he's incapable of distinguishirg between Funniest Home Videos and those "other" shows, I doubt his opinion is of any serious value.
The battle lines are being drawn...I know which side I'm on.

What a pair. A delusional neocon and a delusional hack pseudo reporter.

volunteer to bo back to back appearances on Countdown, TDS and The Colbert Factor. What a kick!

than Fox, MSNBC, CNN combined.

as opposed to making a living getting hit in the nose by chairs, opening empty vaults, and giving away troop locations?? I don't see a bright future as a television critic awaiting Geraldo Rivera

Rivera wouldn't have a career scrubbing toilets.

Rivera "exists in a small little place where they count for nothing." I wish a NY PC in his area would check his voter reg. Anyone? But he is probably eother PND or indie, which would be a lie as he is as partisan a Repuke as it gets whatever his reg.

... lawsuit settlement.

do you think that Stewart and/or Colbert will respond?

In fact, I am counting on it.

when did Geraldo say this? yesterday? Please please god have them respond.

so hopefully they will respond tonight - Olberman especially...

but I really hope Colbert does. Somoene should post this excerp on colbertnation.com cause I don't see it there.

...it's not about Gibson at all.

which they will eventually,he would climb over dead bodies to get a job at msnbc

Are they going to have a sequel to Dawn of the Dead with undead liberals stalking Gibson and critzing his bigoted comments?

O'Lielly is such a tool...

and its America's favorite pasttime.

is anyone going to post this on Colbertnation.com or will I have to make an account just to do it?

"point where the media and individual Americans start to enjoy the suffering of rich and powerful people."

People like Bill and Mel are really at their worst not when people are talking about the bad things they may say or do but... when no one is talking about them. They need the attention. It's what they live for. Bill and Rivera don't care what the media says about them as long as the media is saying something. So I shall not cry for them.

looks like Olbermann will respond. cant wait to watch this.

O'REILLY: It's like going after the rappers. You don't go after the rappers. You go after the masters.
