O'Reilly Goes After Joe Klein: 'Mr Klein Is Scared' Of Me (VIDEO)

Fox News host Bill O'Reilly has been vigilant in responding to any critics who accuse the cable news network of betraying their "fair & balanced" slogan with their coverage of the Obama administration. O'Reilly's latest target is TIME magazine columnist Joe Klein.

Klein recently wrote that "Fox News peddles a fair amount of hateful crap. Some of it borders on sedition. Much of it is flat out untrue."

O'Reilly reacted harshly to this on his show last night, labeling Klein a "coward" and telling his audience that Klein is "scared" to face the bombastic host:

But even though he has plenty of space, Klein fails to illustrate his point, providing no examples of what he says is untrue. So I, being a fair kind of guy, gave Klein a chance to come on the factor and see if could provide backup - to make his case specifically rather than irresponsibly. A TIME publicist told us 'Mr. Klein is unavailable.' Sure, truth is, Mr. Klein is scared.

O'Reilly believes that "the increasing hysteria" over Fox News demonstrates how powerful the network has become. "This is now the network of record, and the left doesn't like it."

WHO WANTS TO BE ON THIS SHOW......­..........­......? IT IS EASIER TO MOTIVATE PEOPLE TO HATRED THAN IT IS TO IMBUE THEM WITH WISDOM

I've got news for you, Bill-O; plenty of people (and some animals) are scared of you. Go out and take a walk tonight. You'll see.

[Angry23]

It's true. Sometimes I check to make sure Bill isn't under the bed before I go to sleep, or hiding under my daughters' cribs.

[miksmaster]

...get out of there! The call is coming from inside the house!

[imfedup]

If it weren't for name-calling, they'd have no words at all.

[nexxtep54]

Bill-O the clown scares me too, and I live out of country.

[jimmygee]

Bill. Trust me there is no one and I mean no one afraid of you. With you over bloated self serving ego the only one that may be afraid of you, is you.

[BambooHarvester]

billo get his rocks off going after Juuuuuuuuuuuuuuuz's !

[miksmaster]

O'Reilly,

Your rude and won't allow guests to even answer the questions! What kind of show is that? I use to watch you and can't stand you now!

[seawolf77]

Bill O'Reilly coundn't scare a Shirley Temple on Halloween.

[joyce2]

Did anyone watch Beck on the Maddow show(sp) he would not answer questions and claimed anything he did not want to answer was a gotcha question LOL And B O complains about people not wanting to come on his show at least this woman gave Beck the courtesy of listening to him even though he was being very disingenuous and dishonest.

[TN]

It's only a gotcha question, when your've done something wrong. Beck must be dodging every question regarding the c rap he says.

[Wendy Johnson]

WHEN was Beck on Rachel? I want to watch that one!

[miksmaster]

I don't think he was. We would know about it.

http://www.relfe.com/media_can_legally_lie.html about faux noise and how they can embellish about any news they want to.Fox claims not to be a news station but an infotainment station only

This says it all and I have watched o"reilly and he does not give his guests time to answer and shouts them down when he does not agree.That's not fair and balanced that is being a bully. And after watching him try to ambush people that is just what he is a big bully.JMO

[skullman]

I've got news for you Billo, nobody is scared of you. Al Franken expiosed you as the fool that you are.

[caviler]

The network of record? Umm... yeah, in Orwell's Oceania Faux would easily pass for the network of record.

As for being "scared" of Billo, I'm scared of him in the same way I'm scared of babies with leaky, poopy diapers. Clearly they are unable to control themselves but that doesn't mean I have to let them crap all over me.

[pissedmichael]

Oh please. To be scared of something, you have to respect it first. O'Reilly is simply not worthy, except in his own mind, of course.

[nini516]

Bill O' should go outside and speak. He'd raise the temperature 20 degrees with all that hot air!!
