(ANTIMEDIA) Goodnight Bill, your long and tyrannical reign at the head of the corporate propaganda machine is coming to an ugly end. Your career is over.
For years you tortured us with your opinions, bigotry, anger, rudeness, downright idiocy and overall assholedom — but it seems like your big mouth has landed you in hot water this time — and I’m really enjoying watching you burn. It’s truly sad that it took this long for people to take your bullshit for what it is, but rest assured the end is near.
Those not familiar with you, Bill O’Reilly, you poor excuse for a journalist and human being — let’s see if we can briefly paint a picture for them.
According to Mother Jones, you have been lying about some stories you’ve been telling the public for years, very much in the same way your peer Brian Williams did.
Since the initial story about your lies went viral, Bill, things got a lot worse for you — our kind propagandist. Another former colleague of yours has stepped forward, reinforcing Mother Jones’ accusations, making it even harder for you to get out from under this unwanted attention. That must’ve hurt a lot.
So you lie, Bill O’Reilly, just like Brian Williams and the majority of other actors who read news scripts do. But you are also a sex offender who hasn’t been arrested yet, we can’t forget about that. From The Anti-Media,
“On October 13, 2004 O’Reilly was sued in a sexual harassment lawsuit for $60,000,000 by his former producer named Andrea Mackris. Mackris was an employee of Fox from 2000, with lawsuit documents showing O’Reilly’s rabid sexual harassment began in May 2002 and continued until September 2004. Mackris filed a wild document full of O’Reilly’s exploits. The fallout was immense, with O’Reilly counter-suing Mackris for extortion before finally settling the lawsuit for an untold amount of money that is generally believed to have been in the millions of dollars.” Read the full in-depth report here.
You’re also an asshole.
And a war monger.
You believe in the War On Drugs and you’re an active drug warrior.
Calling you a raging prick would be an understatement.
So you see, it’s not just that you are full of shit, Bill, you’re also a dangerous propagandist that influences the minds of old (the median age of people who watch The O’Reilly Factor is 72 years old) Republicans everywhere. You should be rotting in a prison cell for your treatment of women and the countless lives lost thanks to your war propaganda.
I’m hoping that this is the last we see of you on Television or anywhere else. You should face the same fate as Brian Williams — who you yourself derided for lying to the public. Goodbye Bill O’Reilly, you won’t be missed. And even if you are not fired, everyone — even your own brainwashed elderly viewers — will forever know that you are a liar.

You harangued me the couple of time I posted an article from Mother Jones.
You now give new meaning to the word hypocrite with the way you pretend to hold certain beliefs about what you determine is right and then behave in this manner to completely disagree with those beliefs.
A Facebook posting by a former CBS News correspondent, however, appears likely to keep the questions flowing toward the O’Reilly camp. An extensive rant by Eric Jon Engberg, who served as a CBS News correspondent for 27 years, calls into question several of O’Reilly’s statements about the reporting — and O’Reilly’s subsequent recollections of it.
To establish his bona fides in fact-checking O’Reilly, Engberg notes, “I can provide some eyewitness information on this matter because I was one of the correspondents in Buenos Aires with O’Reilly and the rest of the rather large staff of CBS News people who were there ‘covering’ the war,” writes Engberg, noting that he and other U.S. correspondents were hundreds of miles away from the battles of the Falkland Islands war, between the United Kingdom and Argentina.
