Are you seriously telling me that he is calm in that rant?
Yes, I was quite impressed. I invite anyone to go listen to it.
He's calm in the beginning, agitated by the middle, and ranting by the end.
Quite frankly, my assumption is that O'Reilly went on Fresh Air
specifically in order to rant and make himself out to be a victim of the liberal media, so that he could add it as an NPR-demonizing segment to his show.
Has O'Reilly ever given a calm interview to anyone even slightly left of center; in other words, could the NPR interview have really ended any other way?
I also find it amusing how he attacks Terry Gross regarding her toothless interview of Franken; I was immediately reminded of O'Reilly's interview of George W - where he praised the president for entering his "no spin zone" and facing tough questions, then proceeded to avoid all of the controversial issues regarding W's administration, not to mention
actually helping provide answers for the president. O'Reilly actually answered the questions he asked the president himself, for those questions that W hesitated on - Bush just sat there nodding like a goofy bobble-head.
When O'Reilly takes part in such a dog-and-pony spectacle as his presidential interview, he really has no right to complain about a liberal talk show giving a
comedian an easy interview.
