Bill O’Reilly went on FOX News via telephone to tell his side of the story. He got into a confrontation with an Obama staffer because his poor little camera got blocked.
O’Reilly: Some guy comes over, he’s about six foot eight according to the press reports and he stands in front of the Factor camera. So I asked him fairly nicely, “you’re blocking our shot sir, you need to move a little bit.
…so I had to gently remove him from that position. No scuffle, I just moved him from the spot.. I might have called him an SOB, that’s possible, nothing more than that. No one on this earth is going block a shot on the O’Reilly Factor. It is not going to happen.

How does O’Reilly gently move a 6ft, 8in. man while cursing him out? BillO lost it. And, my God, his ego is insane.
John Dickerson was there and described a crowd that didn’t suck up to the Factor Man.
When the popular Fox News entertainer arrived at the Obama event in Nashua, people turned to him but not always approvingly. “Hey O’Reilly,” yelled a man. When O’Reilly turned he got a single-finger salute. A few people approached Bill to shake his hand but the overwhelming sentiment was unfavorable. “O’Reilly hatemonger,” yelled a woman…
He also describes the whole O’Reilly saga and at the end even Dickerson thought O’Reilly was a joke:
I have a confession. During the shoving, I found myself yelling at O’Reilly to grow up, which was thoroughly unprofessional, except that I have little kids and I think it’s important to discipline misbehavior immediately. If I don’t dare to discipline, they’ll grow up to be like, well, Bill O’Reilly.
No Trackbacks To “O’Reilly says he called Obama’s staffer an SOB!“
More brown-short tactics from The O’Fascist Factor.

Looks like Billo has committed the criminal offense of battery (harmful or offensive touching). No problem with the SOB speech as 99 percent of words cause no harm, but battery is battery. When is the trial or will Billo cop a plea?
Laura Ingraham is in for BillO tonight. Her voice alone would be enough to move any size man out of the way.
I think it’s only fair that Mr. Orally be the one to scream, “Don’t tase me dude!” while being dragged out like so many in Code-Pink have had to deal with under these fascists.
I see the doctrine of pre-emptive strike is still at work at Fox Propaganda.
What, no comment from the Secret Service?

Agree, but damages?
man, i wish the left had nutjobs like oreilly, then maybe the news could be as entertaining for them as it is for us
Shouldn’t he be arrested for physically harassing a presidential candidate?
“I gently had to remove him from that position. No scuffle, I just moved him from the spot”
The amount of force doesn’t really enter into it. If the man was, even gently, moved against his will then it’s only fair that O’Reilly be given over to Mr. Yoo.
He’ll be scrapping for syndication space with Maury and Jerry in a couple of years. Pathetic. I guess assaultive, rude, and wild-eyed is the journalistic standard of Faux.
O Factor automatically owed shot. Criminal mentality. Thug.
Bill O like Tweety should be ignored.
Paying them attention simply plays into their hands…eggs them on…increases their ratings.
His family must be sooooo fucking embarrassed!!!
Here’s hoping there’s some unedited tape out there waiting to surface. If that does happen, Billo might just end up with egg on his face. We’re talking Real Entertainment…
dugg it
Bill is scum of the earth.. Every time he opens his mouth I think of his character in V for Vendetta - the fat propogandist arrogant blow-hard.
So, who cares what O’Reilly thinks, says or does. Frankly, the echo machine/faux news are as irrelevant as they were in Nov. 2006.
dogeatdogi @ 14:
For the past 70 years.
What is a tabloid opinion hack like O’Reilly doing on a campaign trail anyhow? SHouldn’t he be attempting to get up-skirt photos of Britney?
Ha! Notice, the anchor says, “let’s go straight to the source on this, and talk to the host of the Factor himself…” (but not the staffer).
Yes, FoxNews, where “straight to the source” means hearing Bill’s side of the story.
Fair and Balanced™!
“I might of called him an SOB” haha Classic… I live the O’reilly comedy hour… Great Television.
When is someone going to knock Billo’s dick in the dirt? I would pay to watch that. What a puss that pathetic moron is.
Excuse me. I don’t care who you are or who you THINK you are…you are NOT a loud to put you hands on anyone. Period.
So this “oh I GENTLY put him aside…” is total crap. You and I both know he was pissed and shoved the dude.
THB (Taser Him Bro) next time security.
When you unspin the spin from the spinmeister, it reads like,
I kicked his ass and called him a mother fucking cock sucker!
This is ridiculous, what does it take to get Falafel-boy arrested?
Sweet Jesus I hope the Secret Service both had to restrain Billo and that it’s on camera.
I wonder how he moved the big guy ? He must have hit him in the falafals with his loofa .
I Am A Banana @ 24:
Okay, so let’s say it was gentle enough to be called a caress. I’d consider that sexual molestation. So which is it, Bill? Did you assault him or did you molest him? If I gently put my hands on a woman’s breasts because they’re in the way of my camera shot, it’s not assault, right?
I believe a lot of judges would call that assault and battery. I hope to hell he presses charges.
This is beautiful… These people are losing it.
maybe we can get the networks to re-establish “Queen for a Day”.
billo’s audition at this caucus proves he is a pissy-sissy bully girly-man.
Truthseeker @ 25:
Not even close. More like: “I quickly realized that the guy was professional, so I could get away with (what is technically) assault on a man who could easily kick my ass, and I could even toss in a few SOBs. After all, I couldn’t lose. Either he’d remain professional and not hit me so I’d look like a big man or he would hit me so I’d have a great story.”
Why can’t Obama hire some Blackwater guards? Does their immunity apply here, too? That would be cool.
Billo strikes a blow for pompous egomaniacs everywhere! Let no man think his award-winning* program is beholden to the laws of man. Heh, heh, heh, mere mortals, how insignifant you are next to the power of Billo!
*trailer trash viewers choice 2002+
We can only hope that the unhinged nut job billo does this more often and more violently!!
He is a violent man and a threat to society!! He does not belong in civilized society. Maybe a little water boarding would do him well!!
According to what bill says, it sounds like he “gently” lifted the 6′8” guy up and sat him down at a different location. How do you gently move a man that large if he doesn’t want to be moved?
JTM @ 33:
No blackwater, Obama just needs to call his homeboy Marsellus:
“What now? Let me tell you what now. I’ma call a coupla hard, pipe-hittin’ niggers, who’ll go to work on the homes here with a pair of pliers and a blow torch. You hear me talkin’, O’reallybilly boy? I ain’t through with you by a damn sight. I’ma get medieval on your ass.”
Funny how all these right wingers always go for the assault route, yet they are always accusing the “violent” liberals. Funny in a sad sort of way seeing these nut-job right wing hacks projecting in such manner.
“No one on this earth is going block a shot on the O’Reilly Factor. It is not going to happen.”
We will either have to prove him wrong or wait for alien (devine?) intervention.
Can’t wait for the video of both!
And what’s up with guys like Geraldo and ORiechly and their over the top machismo? Youve got North and his “war stories” shtick, Geraldo was running around afghanistan with a 45 trying to plug Osama and Riechly is “gently moving” campaign staff at a rally? Is Fox pretending to be a news outlet or a wrestling federation? Just put on capes and be done with it. Hemmingway you ain’t.
dadams @ 32:
Hey! Don’t insult the pissy-sissy bully girly-men. A) Without them there would be no republican party. and B) We welcome those that are enlightened liberals.
O’Reilly is 6′4″ or 6′5″ tall himself… who knows if the other guy was really 6′8″ ?
The Obama aid should have just moved, when asked politely, the first time… no doubt he was just being a dick.
Not to be out done by Huck getting Chuck Norris on his campaign, McCain now has Wilford Brimley, on his. Wow! I’m impressed! Ah, no I’m not. But it is funny as hell to me. The only person I know less about than Chuck Norris would most likely be Wilford Brimley.
I’m thinking BillO is loving it that everyone is talking about him. Thing is, he probably thinks everyone is calling him macho for moving the guy and getting his camera shot. He is probably clueless that we think he’s a total idiot.
He was probably looking to generate news rather than report it. Classic tabloid reporting.
Martin @ 40:
For falafel a backhand to his liver-spotted face was the correct response.
Martin @ 40:
No Billo is a dick.
Martin @ 40:
I am pretty sure no one can out-dick BillO. I think he claimed the “dick” championship a long time ago
Martin @ 40:
I’ve found a good spot in a crowd of people and I’m supposed to move because some asshole doesn’t like his spot?
In this case, O’Reilly wasn’t even where he was supposed to be so the guards could have dragged his ass out even if he touched no one. In any case, someone being an asshole isn’t an excuse to put your hands on them is it?
He should know.
pissed off patricia @ 45:
Just ask the women he’s paid to keep quiet.
Who gives a fuck. Jesus christ what a waste.
I really hate that guy. What a blowhard and a jerk. He makes Tweety and Woflie seem like kinda decent guys, which is ironic because I hate them, too.
Oh wow. Billo was nice this time. *rolling eyes* Why is Billo still breathing? There really ought to be a law against it, because it’s effecting global warming.
Billo was booed at one of Hillary’s events she campaigned at today in New Hampshire.
Martin @ 40:
When has Billo ever been polite, Early Frost?
ladies and gentlemen, we have an on the air confession that lufa boy committed an assault
why isnt this fucker in jail???
