Bill O'Reilly has his own made up war stories. I wonder if Fox will[W:237,343,676]

Re: Bill O'Reilly has his own made up war stories. I wonder if Fox will cover[W:237,

No, that is just a part of it. I posted that part because it states that O'Reilly was sent home the next day for not doing his job correctly.

Yes, you are desperate...like calling Buenos Aires a war zone...1200 miles away. LOL

That's all you got? He called it a war zone when it wasn't? Big deal. What Hillary 'sniper fire' Clinton said was far worse and you are not only silent about it, you will vote for her for president. Hard to take you seriously on this.

Re: Bill O'Reilly has his own made up war stories. I wonder if Fox will cover[W:237,

I listened to Bill O on Kurtz's show, the man is totally ticked off at the accusations. His voice was quivering. If someone was trying to trash me I'm sure I would react the same. Guess CBS has agreed to release the film coverage during the time in question that this Enberg character has challenged. O'reilly went on to say that he didn't recall seeing Enberg anywhere around when the coverage was filmed. When he left the hotel Enberg was still there and when he returned Enberg was at the hotel. I guess the guy in charge of CBS at the time is going to be a guest on Bill's show too. I don't watch Bill O as I don't care for his style but am going to watch Monday!

As I've said Enberg was on CNN's Reliable Sources and they played O'Reilly's answer from Fox's MediaBuzz and Enberg flat out called him a liar, there were five CBS Crews there and they all were out in the streets.

Actually, he was congratulated by CBS.

I guess he went digging through his boxes of archives in his basement and produced multiple congratulations from the CBS brass for his coverage.

You haven't been reading. He said he was in the Falklands, said people were shot, he had a gun pointed at him, his cameraman was bleeding, the other CBS crews were not out covering the riot, etc. Other crew members who were there dispute that.

And, really, Hillary has nothing to do with this, bringing her into the conversation makes you look like you have no argument left and are trying to start a new one.

Not sure if this was posted
CNN Jumps on Bill O’Reilly ‘War Zone’ Story | Mediaite

Now being under intense scrutiny, what else will come up?

CBS' Eric Engberg says Bill O'Reilly DID lie about Falklands coverage | Daily Mail Online
O'Reilly, 65, blasted the left-leaning publication Mother Jones and called journalist David Corn 'an irresponsible guttersnipe' and a 'liar' operating on 'the bottom rung of journalism in America'.

Engberg however insists O'Reilly behaved unprofessionally and has accused him of lying about being the only reporter on the streets during a riot.

Well, that is his memory of the events. Maybe his memory isn't completely accurate. I suppose if his camera man steps forward and says he was never injured, then you might have something. As of now, you got nothing but manufactured liberal anger.

And, really, Hillary has nothing to do with this, bringing her into the conversation makes you look like you have no argument left and are trying to start a new one.

LOL right. What Hillary 'sniper fire' Clinton did is far worse than what O'reilly is accused of doing. You don't care about one and are enraged about another. The difference in your attitude is purely political. You just aren't honest enough to admit it.

Yeah ... his style is irritating. It's not for me either.
But as of now, how it seems to be going, he's not backing down and it could backfire on Korn and that gang if it turns out that all they have is their own spin on the events.
Korn is more than capable of doing such a thing. I've watched him for a long time.
And if it comes down to the definition of war-zone and such then the sides will forever remain apart ... this will fade while still being repeated ... and that may have been the plan anyway.
But if O can be shown to have actually made stuff up then he's nuts for taking his defense this far.

So what pbrauer? They were out in the streets but not all in the same location? Makes sense they would not be all in the same place huddled together. Also makes sense and logical that not all journalists would spend the same amount of time out in the field. If they were staking out an area that was uneventful, logic says they wrapped it up early and went back to the hotel. This is more about being at the right place at the right time.

You should be aware that O'Reilly's show is prerecorded, so you will not see anything that disagrees with O'Reilly's account.

I saw the interview. Enberg really had nothing to add whatsoever. O'Reilly said Enberg was in the hotel when he left and in the hotel when he got back. If he drew the conclusion that Enberg never left when he actually did then that is just him drawing an erroneous conclusion. Big deal. It was 30 years ago. Not sure why I should believe Enbergs memory over O'Reillys.

No, you just can't stick to the topic at hand, because you are running out of excuses.

Maybe Bill's memory isn't completely accurate..huh?

Well I went from fire him to at this point undecided.
Will wait and see if anything else pops up.

I have been sticking to the topic. The problem is, there is really nothing here. Look, O'reilly claims to have helped drag a wounded camera man to safety (or some such thing) Now if that camera man step forward and claimed no such thing ever happened, the O'reilly has a credibility problem just like Williams and Clinton. (See how the stories are connected yet?) Until then, all we have is manufactured liberal outrage.

As for Bills memory, I can only speak from experience. Ask me and my friends about events of 1982 and you will get different versions. That doesn't make any of us liars, it just makes the events in question a distant memory. But you go right ahead and let your leftist anger and hatred for O'reilly govern your actions. I will wait for facts.

He claims he was the only reporter covering the riot. That has been disputed.

As for all your blather about "leftist anger and hatred" give it a rest.

Start judging things on their merit, not your political bent.

It's worth a read as it involves Corn, Engberg, and O'Reilly ... the whole ferkakta mess.

i'm not even going to get into that. So here's a unicorn that's just as real as the idea that she's never lied
