Bill O'Reilly Demands Accountability From Benefit Concert He Refused To Air

From C&L:

Well, you'd think Bill O'Reilly would at least be a little embarrassed that Fox News Channel was the only news entity on cable TV not to broadcast last week's "Hope for Haiti" concert.

But no. Instead of apologizing or even mentioning some kind of lame excuse why Fox didn't air it, on his show last night O'Reilly actually went on the warpath against the benefit and its organizers, demanding "transparency" and a full accounting of where all the money's going.

What really got his dander up? The benefit's organizers "wouldn't or couldn't" provide a spokesman to come on his show and explain himself.

In my dreams, the answer O'Reilly's people got when they called was this: "WTF? You want us to find someone to take time out of the hard work we're doing here just to satisfy Bill O'Reilly's ego? Get stuffed! If one of the participating channels wanted transparency, we'd be delighted to open the books for them. But we don't owe Fox News Channel a goddamn thing. Good-bye."

I seem to recall you shooting your mouth off before the invasion of Iraq, and promised his viewers that if those weapons of mass destruction weren't found, he'd never trust the Bush administration again. But there he was, for the last five years of Chimpy's Reign of Error, leading the charge for every nitwit pronouncement that came out of the White House.

So Billo, you want some transparency and accounting? Show us how it's done. You have much to answer for.

He doesn't give a shit about transparency. It's about smearing celebrities and, by extension, liberals. He likes to insinuate that the celebrities who take part in these benefits are somehow getting a cut of the money that is raised. He's a real piece of shit, but you all know that already.

But as Jesus said,

Matthew 6

Giving to the Needy

1"Be careful not to do your 'acts of righteousness' before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven.

2"So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 3But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, 4so that your giving may be in secret. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.
