billoreilly-kidz.jpg O'Reilly claims that the left wing loons took his vile rant against Shawn Hornbeck out of context. It's a typical response from a man who claims he protects children, but actually attacked an abused one and has no way left to defend himself. There are over 1000 comments on Oprah's message bd now. Bill, you're the despicable one and I'll go on your show any day and debate you about your original segment on Shawn. I will be contacting The Factor. Yea, I know...It's pointless..

Media Matters:

Bill, loved you on Oprah, but you got hammered on some chat boards. They say you owe Shawn Hornbeck an apology for insinuating he wanted to stay with his abductor. What say you?"

Well, Heather, I say the far-left loons who took my analysis out of context are despicable. These people haven't done a single thing to protect kids from danger in this country. Our reporting on the Hornbeck case has been dead-on accurate.

We have introduced Child Sexual Abuse Accommodation Syndrome to a world that badly needs to understand that concept. These vile individuals who have attacked us are doing so for political reasons, and I condemn them in the strongest terms.

Here's the video of what he actually said that was so offensive. It was soooo disgraceful that he got cancelled out of speaking at the National Center for Missing Kids dinner. Are they left wing loons too? I've made several calls to the producers of Oprah's show to ask them about O'Reilly's appearance. So far they haven't returned my calls..

Can you help us out?
