Bill O'Reilly Blows Up On Camera [video]Posted: 3 months ago by ImNotBlue Before he had the number one cable news program, Bill O'Reilly hosted "Inside Edition." In this clip, O'Reilly gets a bit frustrated with the teleprompter not working. Hilarity ensues. Comments: 16 Score: [-] 102 [+].
<1>Posted: 3 months ago by ImNotBlue: I post this story, knowing full well that some people will now eagerly post some really ignorant things about O'Reilly. But even as an O'Reilly fan, the clip is funny.
As someone who has worked in television for almost 12 years now... things like this are not uncommon. It happens. People get frustrated (like I'm sure they do in any job), yell, shout, and whatever. But in television... someone's probably recording it.
And one more thing, I know a few people who currently work for FOX News and specifically O'Reilly. I have never heard them say one negative thing about anyone there. O'Reilly is apparently very nice in person, and (despite what this clip might show) treats his staff very well. Oh and no, they're not all Republicans... or any other such nonsense.

False!
CBS (apparently, according to sources) have taken it down due to copyright.
Also, O'Reilly humorously commented to TVNewser (the site I linked to) about this video:
O'Reilly tells TVNewser: "That video was just me practicing for my conversations with Geraldo."

It really depends on what you believe.
If you believe what you watch and see... you believe one thing.
If you believe what people who hate FOX and O'Reilly for either political, financial, or personal reasons... you'll believe something else.
It's really a question of source. Score: [-] 0 [+]. Posted: 3 months ago by hOOsker:
Sorry, didn't find him very funny, but did confirm my thoughts on how big of a d**k O Reilly is. Score: [-] 44 [+]. Posted: 3 months ago by bingo: ImNotBlue seems to be a fan, and thats fine, lots of people are or he wouldn't have a show.
I don't like him at all. I don't think he is necessarily ignorant, but I do think he is a big ass. He's mean and rude to his guests.
This gave me a tickle. Score: [-] 44 [+]. Posted: 3 months ago by ImNotBlue:

Well, a lot of people have that impression of him. Mostly because they've only seen a few clips of his program... or outbursts like this.
He does have a tendency to yell, or at least raise his voice... however, mean and nasty isn't really all that common.
I understand your opinion, and am not going to try to change it... but I do believe that if more people would have a different (if not favorable) opinion of him if they watched the show for a length of time. But I understand if people don't want to do that.
To me, O'Reilly is like hardboiled eggs. The first time you try them, they're a little hard to understand and appreciate... but after a while, you get used to the texture, and start to like it. I didn't like O'Reilly for a long time... until I started watching... then my opinion changed. Score: [-] 0 [+]. Posted: 3 months ago by PulsisX:
