Jon Stewart makes a fool out of Bill O Reilly

[CptStern]

During the December 2 broadcasts of O'Reilly's Fox News talk show The O'Reilly Factor and his Fox News radio show The Radio Factor with Bill O'Reilly, O'Reilly used a year-old video clip from The Daily Show to demonstrate what he claims is an ongoing "war on Christmas" by secular forces. However, O'Reilly falsely told his radio listeners the clip had aired the day before and left his cable viewers with a similar misleading impression.



oh what a moron

Stewart is hilarious in this segment

 

[Some_God]

I seen it too. Very funny.

 

[Glirk Dient]

Haha that was pretty funny. Oreilly is silly :bounce:

 

[OvA]

Jon Stewart is the best Journalist. Ever.

 

[CptStern]

...for a comedian

 

[OvA]

...for a comedian

Nope... Ever.

 

[CptStern]

name one journalist ..dont cheat now

 

[OvA]

name one journalist ..dont cheat now

Bill O'Reilly :naughty:

 

[DeusExMachina]

Jon Stewart's the only news source I even trust anymore.

 

[Sainku]

It's not like it is a hard thing to do.

 

[Glirk Dient]

Jon Stewart's the only news source I even trust anymore.

Wow...you trust a comedy show for your reliable news source when all they do is find things to make jokes about?

 

[GhostBoi]

Wow...you trust a comedy show for your reliable news source when all they do is find things to make jokes about?

Exactly, you know that they are joking about everything, so what you do is pick up the story behind it. With other news stations you never know when they are inserting their own bias.

 

[DeusExMachina]

I was joking myself though I do commit more time to The Daily Show then I do CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, and the like. At least I don't waste my time with prisonplanet eh?

 

[operative x]

Jon Stewart for president!

 

[CptStern]

Bill O'Reilly :naughty:

I said journalist ..not loud mouth idiot who wouldnt know a fact if it bit him in the ass ..please could you please pick someone with REAL credentials ..not one he picked from the back of a matchbook

 

[Sparta]

I wish the Weekly Daily show was on over here still

 

[Raziaar]

Jon Stewart is the best Journalist. Ever.

I think Colbert is funnier.

 

[pvtbones]

I think Colbert is funnier.

lets all just agree their great!

 

[Top Secret]

lets all just agree their great!

Let's learn English while we're at it!

 

[Greatgat]

Let's learn English while we're at it!

Oh, I knew that was coming...

Anyway Stern what about Peter Jenkins? He is/was a superhuman vessel of great intelligence. People (including me, yes) may not always agree with him, but at least when says something you don't agree with you don't want to throw a chair through a window in frustration.

 

[CptStern]

I dont watch all that much american network news ..oh I still watch some segments but usually I'll watch cbc or bbc world report, plus the web, and newspapers.

Jennings is an old school new school ..in the sense that when tv first started broadcasting news they used real journalists who had careers in newspaper for the most part. Jennings started his career when the news was starting to turn mid 70's with the rise of corporate take overs of media giants. But he still has journalistic integrity, much more so than an idiot like O Reilly (who has none) but wit the caveat that he's still bound by corporate editorializing of news. In other words he's alright :thumbs:

oh and he was canadian ..if that matters at all ..ya sure it does a bit (oops there's that nationalism again)

here's David Letterman making a fool out of O Reilly:


here's the video, 2nd one down:

http://www.cbs.com/latenight/lateshow/dave_tv/ls_dtv_big_show_highlights.shtml



transcript:

Letterman: How were your holidays? Good?

[laughter]

O'Reilly: I had a nice winter solstice, yea.

[long pause and laughter]

Letterman: Okay.

O'Reilly: You can't say - you can't say Christmas.

Letterman: You can't say Christmas?

O'Reilly: No.

Letterman: Why is that?

O'Reilly: Because it is politically incorrect and we did a lot of reporting on this and, uh, that was the big thing we were doing leading up to that. While you were in St. Barts, we were leading up to the Christmas holidays by saying 'Hey, how come we can't say Christmas?'

Letterman: I wasn't aware that you couldn't say Christmas. When did this happen?

O'Reilly: Sears, Kmart started it, said no more Christmas. It's all happy holidays or winter soltstice. I actually got a card from a friend of mine, it said 'Have a Blessed Winter.' I live in New York. You know what you can do with your blessed winter. You know what I'm talking about? Are you with me, Dave?

Letterman: I wasn't aware that this had happened.

O'Reilly: You weren't aware of the big giant controversy over Christmas?

Letterman: Well, I ignore stuff like that, it doesn't really affect me. I go ahead and do what I wanna do and you know I say Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year, Happy Hannukah.


................

O'Reilly: Okay, so let's stop with the lying and the this and the that and the undermining and let's get him. That is putting us all in danger. So our philosophy is we call it as we see it. Sometimes you agree, sometimes you don't. Robust debate is good. But we believe that the United States, particularly the military, are doing a noble thing, a noble thing. The soldiers and Marines are noble. They're not terrorists. And when people call them that, like Cindy Sheehan called the insurgents 'freedom fighters,' we don't like that. It is a vitally important time in American history. And we should all take it very seriously. Be very careful with what we say.

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

[audience applause]

O'Reilly: Give me an example.

Letterman: How can you possibly take exception with the motivation and the position of someone like Cindy Sheehan?

O'Reilly: Because I think she's run by far-left elements in this country. I feel bad for the woman.

Letterman: Have you lost family members in armed conflict?

O'Reilly: No, I have not.

Letterman: Well, then you can hardly speak for her, can you?

[applause]

O'Reilly: I'm not speaking for her. Let me ask you this question.

Letterman: [referring back to O'Reilly's phony "War on Christmas"] Let's go back to your little red and green stories.

[CptStern]

Hope you had a happy Jesus day Stern. May baby Jesus bless you and watch over you forever and ever, and instill in you happiness wherever you go!



Muahahaha.

 

[CptStern]

nope, no jebus. No praying or endless repetative chants that no one in modern times understands, or midnight mass, or grace or baby jesus or the 3 not-so-wise men. He didnt make an appearance this year ..but annual gift giving man did and he left behind a whopper of a credit card bill ..thankfully I paid cash for everything :E

All you have to do, is say, "Save me Jebus!"

 

[CptStern]

I'd rather say "Save me aqua-man!!"

 

[JNightshade]

That made me laugh so much. Jon Stewart is so funny, and Bill O'Reilly is just so despicable. It was like Kwanzaa came early

 

[Pauly]

Bill O'reilly is horrible! I watched his show last night and he showed the clip of him on david letterman and talked about how there is a culture war that the young people only look up to entertainers... blah blah. I believe that people are influenced by a popular entertainer (only some) and it won't really change thier opinions too much oreilly is blowing it way out of porportion!!!!

 

[Sulkdodds]

Bill O'Reilly is a big blubbering vagina.

/me nods

 

[OCybrManO]

he showed the clip of him on david letterman and talked about how there is a culture war that the young people only look up to entertainers

He doesn't have any room to talk. Bill O'Reilly, himself, is nothing more than an entertainer. He most certainly is not a reporter/anchor. You need a shred of credibility for that job. Instead, Bill O'Reilly presents his "information" with the personality and presentation of an older, crankier, crazier, and less witty version of Maddox. The problem is that he doesn't think he's just an entertainer. He thinks he is being objective. He thinks his reasoning follows logic. He thinks he's really performing a public service. Obviously, he is delusional.

 

[DancingSoda]

Jon Stewart's the only news source I even trust anymore.

That's sad.

If you seriously intake your political ideals from a lackluster comedian that images himself as a total biased (that somehow remains leftist friendly) simpleton, you really deserve to have your ballot torn up and thrown in your face if you ever attempt to vote.

Jon Stewart is a moron. Bill O'Reilly is a zealot. However, at least Fox News is real.

 

[Solaris]

HA HA HA LOL

Fox???? Thats the best ever.

 

[DeusExMachina]

Wow, nice job reading my other post shortly below the one you just quoted. gg.

Oh that's sarcasm by the way. In case you couldn't get that through your head either.

And no, Fox isn't real. No news source is. You wanna know who I trust most with delivering me news?

No one. CNN is probably the only thing I'll take a few bits from but other than that, everything is bullshit. Left wing/Right wing propoganda.

hahahahahahahahahahaha ..fox"news" isnt real virginia, it's not a credible journalistic entity, it just pretends to be one so that they can forcefeed joe-patriot what he wants to hear: "america is great, war is good, we're doing really well, dont worry we have the evil-doers on the run"


there's nothing "fair and balanced" about fox"news" ..it's an industry wide joke

 

[DancingSoda]

Wow, nice job reading my other post shortly below the one you just quoted. gg.

Notice how I said "If you seriously take the show as realism."


Oh that's sarcasm by the way. In case you couldn't get that through your head either.


You then go on to say you dedicate most of your time to the Daily Show. Doesn't sound that sarcastic to me.

And no, Fox isn't real. No news source is. You wanna know who I trust most with delivering me news?

CNN is just as biased, if not the biased network in existence.

hahahahahahahahahahaha ..fox"news" isnt real virginia, it's not a credible journalistic entity

And I'm sure someone that gets most of his information and world culturism from MTV, Comedy Central, and various leftist forum boards like yourself knows the real news?

You're doing exactly what you accuse Fox of, genius.

 

[CptStern]

is that what you think I think is unbiased... cnn? is that the limit to your spectrum? fox = right wing, cnn = left wing anarchists? CNN is a corporately owned entity and as such has a fudiciary responsibility to their shareholders which often comes out heavily as heavy handed editorializing ...fox"news" doesnt even try to report accurately or even hide the fact that they're heavily biased, they just push right-wing ideology and often openly mislead the viewer

And I'm sure someone that gets most of his information and world culturism from MTV, Comedy Central, and various leftist forum boards like yourself knows the real news?

wow you seem to know me pretty well ..in what? ..the 1 day you've been here ...you wouldnt happen to be from florida but are a southerner at heart now would you?

Does anybody else think that dancing soda is just ghost logging in under a different name?
