Stewart vs O Reilly = Hilarity

[ragincaucasian]

I really feel sorry for people that watch FOX

 

[Straight Shooter]

I'm about to watch this right now. I missed it earlier.

 

[Hot Mega]

Sue me because I'm about to "celebrate" the commission of a heinous crime too, Stewart's complete and utter massacre of O'Reilly.:1orglaugh:nanner:

Four words: Kicked his ENTIRE ass!:o

 

[pete rose]

oh that o'reilly

 

[DJCowboy]

Sad thing is, O'Reilly is one of the more sane people at that network

 

[Connor Macleod]

I would agree that Obama's judgement on this was seriously lacking, but O'Reilly is just so over-the-top with his opinions that it's just difficult to listen to anything he has to say.

 

[pete rose]

I really feel sorry for anyone that still watches O'Reilly and actually gets something out of it. I really do. He literally has 3 acts: the overblown setup, the rage, and the embarrassment he tries to hide by trying to be funny or "sum up" the guest.

Who knew Common said or did anything in this regard before the folks at Faux (pas) "News" went digging for something to be selectively outraged over?

Their formula was simple, they saw Common + rapper and probably immediately went to a Lexis-Nexis search to find a talking point.

People who follow Common likely have no clue what some of his contemporaneous thoughts what O'Reilly brought up...how do people at Faux (pas) know??

Stewart hit the nail directly on the head in calling out the selective outrage.

Scary Black Man /FAIL

 

[rayman53x]

yeahh i don't watch the news period... but if i did, it would not be fox lol

 

[Supafly]

Last line in the second clip:

O'Reilly: 'I think I'm gonna commit suicide'

PLEASE do that :2 cents:

Haven't Dictators and other insidious foreign leaders visited the White House? Who cares about slam poets.

[monicasilver]

There may or may not be a point here. I just can't believe it is a priority as an issue.

 

[BioDefenseGrad]

What's this thing about Common? If Immortal Technique gets invited to the White House, then maybe I'll get up in arms.

 

[BioDefenseGrad]

I see this lyric "tell the law, my Uzi weighs a ton." Common is a very soft guy trying to act hard. He's rather annoying, but I think bourgeois liberals like him, so it's not totally out of character for this administration.

I see this lyric "tell the law, my Uzi weighs a ton." Common is a very soft guy trying to act hard. He's rather annoying, but I think bourgeois liberals like him, so it's not totally out of character for this administration.

After that quote is this:

"No time for that [uzi-related violence], because there's things to be done/Stay true to what I do so the youth dream come"

Nothing like some context to make sense of what he was really saying.

 

[slimbutter]

aww, those lyrics are so luvly, in a Nobel Peacey kinda way. Common is just a big fuzzy bear, no wonder he got an invite :angels:

O'Reilly's head is exploding again for no reason.

John Stewart is the Sanest/Funniest man on this planet. !!

 

[Hot Mega]

Greatest part of the exchange:

Stewart: 'Why are you drawing the line at Common? There is a selective outrage machine here at Fox that "pettifogs" only when it suits the narrative that suits them.'
