DU Poll - O'Reilly Fan or Fighter?
I did a cursory search, and didn't see this. If it's already been posted, my apologies (just let it die a quick death - lol):

If you haven't voted PLEASE do your magic. I cringe to think O'Lielly will see this poll with it's current results. His lying head is big enough as it is.

Poll is under his :puke: pic: http://aolsvc.news.aol.com/tv/article.adp?id=20060108132809990003&ncid=NWS00010000000001

When it comes to Fox's pundit Bill O'Reilly, are you a fan or ready to fight him?

Fan 55%
Fighter 36%
Who? 9%

Total Votes: 63,231

I think the freepers are clearing their cache and starting again.

3. "the host of cable TV news' No. 1 program." yuk




NEW YORK (Jan. 8) - If Bill O'Reilly truly loves a good fight, then he's had quite a week.

The Fox News Channel personality's confrontation with David Letterman Tuesday night made for some gripping television. The cranky "Late Show" host told his guest: "I have the feeling about 60 percent of what you say is crap."

That same night, nemesis Keith Olbermann on MSNBC once again named O'Reilly his "Worst Person in the World," this time for battling with two people at The New York Times. That's the 15th time O'Reilly has been cited since Olbermann began his half-facetious, half-serious nightly "award" to wag his finger at bad behavior.

For whatever reason, it seems more people are willing to step into the ring with the host of cable TV news' No. 1 program.

But they'd better beware. Combat may be as essential as oxygen to him.

Thanks everybody!

9. O'Reilly's younger viewership was up 20 percent over his Dec. numbers.



.......Olbermann pleads innocent to being holier-than-thou because of his show's willingness to point out its own mistakes. "I'm sure I will eventually make the list," he said. "I will be one of the worst people in the world."

He may already be, at least at Fox News Channel's office. O'Reilly, who didn't want to talk for this article, has referred to Olbermann - although not by name - as a "notorious smear merchant" and pointed out his low ratings. (Olbermann's typical audience is about one-sixth of O'Reilly's.)

Network spokesman Brian Lewis was even more pointed. "Perhaps (NBC Universal chief) Jeff Zucker should think twice about tying his future, not to mention the reputation of (parent company) General Electric, to an unstable ratings-killer like Keith, who uses an NBC property for his personal attacks," he said.

Who will have the last laugh?

It's worth noting that nearly 2.7 million people - about 200,000 above last year's average - tuned in to watch "The O'Reilly Factor" the night after he went toe-to-toe with Letterman, according to Nielsen Media Research. O'Reilly's younger viewership was up 20 percent over his December numbers.

"Well, and you should be very careful with what you say also."
"I don't think this is an actual threat," Letterman said. "I think that this is something that happened here and it happened there. And so people like you are trying to make us think that it's a threat."

They jousted over peace activist Cindy Sheehan, who O'Reilly said has referred to Iraqi insurgents as freedom fighters.

"It is a vitally important time in American history," O'Reilly said. "And we should all take it very seriously, and be very careful with what we say."

Responded Letterman: "Well, and you should be very careful with what you say also."

33. I love this quote from the article,..

"But they'd better beware. Combat may be as essential as oxygen to him."

In which branch of the military did O'Falafel serve?
