UPDATE: Watch Huffington Post's Editor Roy Sekoff talk about O'Reilly's blow-up on Fox News:

Chicago Sun-Times' Lynn Sweet reports from New Hampshire:

The incident was triggered when O'Reilly--with a Fox News crew shooting--was screaming at Obama National Trip Director Marvin Nicholson "Move" so he could get Obama's attention, according to several eyewitnesses. "O'Reilly was yelling at him, yelling at his face," a photographer shooting the scene said.

O'Reilly grabbed Nicholson's arm, said "move" and shoved him, another eyewitness said. Nicholson, who is 6'8 said O"Reilly called him "low class."

Secret Service agents came after O'Reilly pushed Nicholson and the agents flanked O'Reily.

UPDATE: John Amato has video of Bill O'Reilly's call into Fox News about the incident. "I gently had to 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." Watch the video here.

Photos/video of the incident by Off the Bus correspondent Joshua Cinelli:


Hillary Clinton also tangled with O'Reilly today. Marc Ambinder reports:

Clinton took her first question from a woman who said that Bill O'Reilly, who stood about 40 feet away from Clinton's left, asked her about Clinton's troop withdrawal plan from Iraq.

"Bill O'Reilly!" Clinton said, gesturing to the talk show host.

The crowd started to jeer, but Clinton raised her hand: "Oh no, no no -- he gets at least some credit for being here."

And she launched into a five minute disquisition on Iraq.

O'Really should get just as much respect as he gave Susan Sarandon when she appeared on his show or the young man he told to shut up. Just that much—no more, no less. One should be treated as he treats others. I think that rule might be in that old book that O'Really claims to honor so much. Of course that book is not my book so I don't pay any attention to such niceties.

If he cared about the Constitution he would be trying to get the so called Patriot act repealed.
No one has stepped on and destroyed American freedom more than the neoCONS supported by the likes of O'ReallY?
Restricting Freedom and spying by the government on its citizens are NOT American values...Red Communist china or the old Soviet are more neoCON then the Constitution..

What this intellectually bankrupt creep knows about the Constitution you can fit into a flea's navel and still have room for what's left of the California National Guard. He probably just wanted to know if Obama and his family use knives and forks at dinner like "regular people". I can't believe he has an audience.

No, NO old fartly said he did it because his brain was constipated.

Remeber when that guy in Vail grabbed the VP by the armm to talk to him? Why was it OK for him to commit an assult, but not O'reilly? Please explain the difference. Is one right and one wrong?

For the record, I don't watch O'Reilly, or much of Fox news at all, but I do enjoy pointing out obvious signs of hypocricy by the people who comment here, so chalk another one up.....

Fascist 'O'Reilly' and the 'Constitution' should never appear on any page, book, or library together.

"..."I had no choice, ladies and gentlemen, but to uphold the Constitution," O'Reilly says"

i think i threw up a bit in my mouth a bit when i read this quote.
billo doesn't even know the difference between the declaration of independence and the constitution. when a youngster asked him a question about the constitution billo confused the two and then tried to obfuscate his way out of it.

Mr. O'Reilly, once you have placed your hand on another individual against their will, that is called "Assault" and that is a crime. If you'd really like to uphold the Constitution, please ask Fox News promoted candidates Rudy Giuliani and John McCain why they take our tax dollars to fight unconstitutional wars?

O'Lielly has no idea what is in the Constitution, but being a typical Rethug coward, he hides behind it just like he used to hide behind his Mommy's skirts.

But, thanks to him and all his loser supporters for helping kill the GOP. O'Lielyy - the face of the dead elephant party.

The Constitution protects the right to a good camera angle? And entitles him to commit assault and battery? Jeez, what a sociopath.
