Bill O'Reilly: MSNBC Hosts Might Commit Suicide After Midterms (VIDEO)

Bill O'Reilly issued a "viewer warning" for children not to watch MSNBC after the midterm elections because some of the network's staff might kill themselves on the air.

Speaking to Juan Williams on Monday's "O'Reilly Factor," the Fox News host said that he was interested to find out what the reaction to the midterms -- where Democrats are widely predicted to suffer major losses in Congress -- would be in the Democratic party and amongst "liberal commentators." He then turned to MSNBC, where he jokingly said some people might be so distraught that they would be driven to extreme action:

"I am going to issue a viewer warning right now for children to not watch MSNBC, because some people may commit suicide, alright? They may set themselves on fire over there, and it would be gruesome to watch that."

Wait till everyone realizes what and who they voted for. I think the reverse will happen when they see there will be no jobs They shipped them all overseas. They're Business profile is to get rid of as many employees as possible. they will get rid of all the Health Care Plans as they won't spend the money. The Banks still will not give any Loans. They got what they paid for. A Congress who is working for Corporate America. They're all Fools!

Bill, I won't condemn you for your silly joke as others have, but I will say this: Dream on. Your little victory is significant, but by no means devastating. We still have the Senate and, most importantly, the White House.

Teabaggers are prone to anger, outrage and violence; O'Reilly was just projecting the over-the-top emotions of himself and his followers. Didn't John "Agent Orange" Boehner weep on TV? Moderates will commit no such outrageous act as he has suggested because they are much more in control of their feelings and reactions.

O'Reilly is not a teabagger, he saw a parade and he jumped in front of it.

New name for John Boehner, the Grim Weeper.

It took till the bottom of the 2nd paragraph to explain he was joking. What a bunch of bull this story was. I saw it live he was laughing as he said it and clearly joking

This was meant as a joke ! You should be able to take a "joke" if you watch those clowns on msnbc. Of course, no one wanted or expected those msnbc guys to "set themselves on fire" but fully expected them to break down and cry and whine like a bunch of sissy girls when their "guys" lost.

Come on children, don't be so sensitive. Bill meant this as a joke. Anyone who watches msnbc needs to develope a sense of humor watching those clowns. No I didn't think the msnbc guys would actually harm themselves but I did expect them to cry and whine like a bunch of sissy girls.

Actually they will not but Jon Stewart's prediction will probably come true with the hate on both sides.

Yes Bill, it is real funny saying some people might commit suicide -- want to say which ones, will their wives, children, parents, gandchildren think it is funny -- and I guess since your Catholic you wouldn't let them be buried in your cemetary (I am Catholic so dont jump on me for being a bigot)

Just another example of the dispicable, divisive garbage that comes out of Fox. Never anything positive, never anything constructive. Just lies upon lies and more of the same vitriol.

Makes me sad.
