|

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that most premium members on Billoreilly.com have started a petition to get Mr. O'Neill heard on his show. We feel there has been some biased and us viewers want him to be seen. _________________ Support your Troops and your Country

After trashing the SBVT ad, last week, he did mention he wanted some of them to come on the show. And now, he takes a poll?
I've also noted, in the same show, he stated he felt they were financed by the RNC and was going to look into it and get back. A week later, nothing. When he said there was a discrepency on what a juror in teh Scott Peterson trial said to her brother, he had a tape of it and an expert on over the weekend, saying that the reports and the brother were dead wrong.
O'Reilly just keeps going further and further down hill, I'm afraid. _________________ Clark County Conservative

Good idea but if he doesn`t respond in a positive way you should consider petioning to cancel your membership. |

How does one sign the petition?
I'm a Premium member, but certainly not for much longer if he doesn't give the Swifts a fair hearing! _________________ ~ Echo Juliet ~

Could it be that BIll is using a ploy here?
I mean, perhaps he wants it to look like he is being forced into
this screaming and kicking so as not to look to eager/partisan.
He knows full well the book isn't out there yet.
I wonder if he is just not playing up to this?
You know he must have some idea how big this thing could get.
I can't imagine the mail he has to be getting on this book.
If he smells something that he can "grow" you know he will
play it for all he is worth. I hope I am right.
Only time will tell. |

I'm not a member of the O'Reilly premier membership, but I've e mailed him twice, to his website, and to Fox news, to delve a little deeper into the issue. So far, he's only taken a superficial look ... he needs to look at little harder at what the "swifties" have to say. |

It would be great if you are right, but I am not holding my breath. I have been very dissappointed in BO recently and the swift vet issue has been the last straw. _________________ "And no pair has been more wrong, more loudly, more often, than the two Senators from Massachusetts, Ted Kennedy and John Kerry"

Very disappointed in O'reilly
Premium members should communicate that to Bill. _________________ Share the passion: http://www.MLSnet.com |

I also am not an o-reilly premium member, but I did write him an email expressing my disappointment in how he handled the story, basically dismissing the Swiftvets as another partisan 527 like MoveOn.
To any vets reading this, thank you for your service. _________________ ===============

HI ALL!!
I think all of us are feeling diappointed in BOR these days. I don't think he has given the swiftboats a fair shot!! Some of the word on the premium member boards is that BOR is either trying to be "to FAIR", not to look or favor the right, as complained by most. The other possibility is that he is dodging the O'Neill interview in hopes to get some of the bigger interviews (Kerry) on the show. Or he is getting hard time from some FOX execs. Not sure though, this is all a matter of opinion. A lot of us have been emailing BOR and we will see what happens. If you want to sign the peition go into the Premium Members Home. Go to Discussion boards and it is under the "TV Show Feedback" section. It will either be on the first or second page.
BOR has been throwing softballs to the liberal loonies in his interviews these days and we want to know whats up!! _________________ Support your Troops and your Country

RM-
That's why I write him everyday. I question the same character that he claims is deficient in others when they don't do the right thing. Clearly he is scared if Swiftvets come up short. It's called playing it safe. I call it something else. _________________ The war against terrorism is not that Americans might die rather that we would alter our way of living.

Chris Matthews' Hardball, on MSNBC, has around 471,000 viewers.
By contrast, Bill O'Reilly's Factor, on Fox, has about 2,051,000 viewers. _________________ Share the passion: http://www.MLSnet.com |
