It isn't so easy to make twice. It wasn't corrected it was skirted around. Like I said if it is that easy for you to get over the mistake that resulted in a commentator on television telling his audience of members that victims of war crimes were in fact war criminals, then that is up to you.
Was it an easy mistake to make twice over the course of a year even after the first "mistake" was pointed out? Was it such an easy mistake for Faux News to alter the transcript of the interview only to change it back after the edits was documented and broadcast by real news agencies? If it were a true mistake, O'Reilly should have no problem apologizing for it. Instead, he pretends like he was right the whole time so that he does not look like the fool that most of us can see him for. Your inability to understand facts and willingness to excuse him for egregious misstatements shows very clearly the reason why O'Reilly can get away with lying about almost every topic he opines for. The people who watch him care more about being "right" than being truthful.
From http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/: Cable News Ratings Ratings for Wednesday, June 21 25-54 Year Old demo 8pm ET Bill O'Reilly 425000 Paula Zahn 217000 Nancy Grace 171000 GoKillYourSelfMann 103000 Here are the ratings for May 8: O'Reilly 435000 GoKillYourSelfMann 176000 Grace 130000 Zahn 105000
That is not really interesting or relevant to anything. I am not a advertising exec, so I don't really care what the ratings were. I'm sure that American Idol beat all of those. Is that relevant as well? Why do you care? However I do find it interesting that when Bill's "mistaken" preposition, or sexual harrassment comes up, he's already paid for that and corrected the mistake. Yet some vermin bait and provoke a statement by Olbermann who does apologize for it, and you still try and use it against him. Your lack of objectivity is plain.
One curious thing about Krazy Keith's ratings - he lost half his audience in 2 days. On Monday he drew a 211K and on Tuesday it was 195K. But on Wednesday it was down to 103K.
It looks like Krazy Keith found his missing viewers. Ratings for Thursday in 25-54 demo O'Reilly 408K Grace 185K Olbermann 159K Zahn 149K
It's hilarious to me that gwayneco is obsessed with O'Reilly's ratings while he proudly pimps a president and a war whose numbers are both in the basement.
Gwayneco....The Media Research Center? Wouldn't it have been easier to just post something from the Republican National Committee's official website? Please....let this ridiculous thread die the squalid death it has earned!
Considering Conservatives are the ones in power, you would figure they would be the bigger target. Also the "media research center" is just a conservative interest group so I wouldn't exactly go too far in defending them as the voice of neutrality and justice on this matter.
If it's easily fact-checked, then why don't you post the facts rather than tripe from a purely partisan website?
The MRC is simply listing whom he has picked. It would be the same list of people had the NYT did it. Of course, the NYT would rather reveal our national secrets.
