“Apparently sparked by the PlayStation 3 launch, conservative pundit Bill O’Reilly took off after video game culture and digital technology generally in yesterday’s Radio Factor,” GamePolitics reports. “The controversial talk show host, who advertises his program as a ‘no spin zone’ offered the following spin on Apple’s iPod:”
I don’t own an iPod. I would never wear an iPod… If this is your primary focus in life – the machines… it’s going to have a staggeringly negative effect, all of this, for America… did you ever talk to these computer geeks? I mean, can you carry on a conversation with them? …I really fear for the United States because, believe me, the jihadists? They’re not playing the video games. They’re killing real people over there.

I concur Craigster. Chrissyone is not entertaining and disgusting too. What cretans.
Didn’t Olberman have sex with a black woman and then dump her and she’s threatening to plaster his emails all over the internet.

Nice hero loser.
Always Wrong would look up that loser Olberman. 2 idiots.
I think Bill might have been trying out some of Rush’s ‘stash’.
“Ditto”!!!
^_^
Bill O’Reilly while not always the most pleasant person is usually spot on. You libs are embarrassing to the human race.
Fox News rocks!
Sometimes it’s the messenger, not the message.
And sometimes it’s the batteries in the remote.
The libs will ruin the earth!
ChrissyOne,
You give females a very bad name.
TT-
Yeah, actually, I look for “The Honeymooners”!
Libs want to buy votes with empy promises. Replubicans try to create jobs, wealth, good feelings, etc. Libs = negative energy
Maybe they need it.
Always Wrong is true pure evil. An over the top bad actor. Don’t let this loser bother you people. He/She has to live with themself. Thank god you’re not that person. Creepy!
Creepy, very creepy. Scary, very scary. You are a Truly Disgusting Person.
Dispicable.
THIS IS HILARIOUS!
You people can’t be serious!
You aren’t too smart, are you?
HONDO- wow. THAT looks to me, to be very hard-hitting objective, undeniably reliable source material.
Whew.
I must admit, VERY COMPELLING.
MDN word- “evidence”!
HAHAHAHAHAH!!!!
Personally, I wish we had a true public servant back in the oval office.
CLINTON (Bill).
I don’t care who sucks his pecker.
Hell, I’ll do it.

MW: ‘mans’ (laughing *way* too hard to think of anything)
looks like Letterman might be worth watchin tonight.
I know, Easterners, you’ve already seen it.
“I don’t own an iPod. I would never wear an iPod. But I WILL bend over, grab my ankles, and spread ’em for your $$, you Premium Member podcast-playing iPod users!” – Bill O’Reilly
Poor old Bill O’Rly. Biting the hand that feeds you won’t take your falling ratings higher. Maybe he should, as he so often and eloquently puts it, just “SHUT UP”!!!
Bill O’Rly is a raving lunatic detached from reality, just like those “computer geeks”.
MW: ‘became’ as in ‘Bill O’Rly became a sad joke’.
MacMan,
Was this a stupid, hypocritical thing?
I’m not sure, but who in the fuck is hin?
The wonderful thing about America is that all can share their views, but the level of immaturity in these posts is truly outrageous. The passion is fantastic, the views – in most cases – not so much.
I highly doubt Bill believes in half the things he’s saying, and even if he does – who cares? He certainly isn’t influencing the younger generation or anyone I know.
Freedom allows people like Bill, Rush, Jon, Stephen and everyone else, as far as that goes, to have a dissenting or – sometimes – moronic opinion.
I don’t agree with his thoughts on iPod use, but I do think it was partly misconstrued, and I also don’t care realy what he thinks.
If nothing else it’s all great entertainment for all of us. Right?
You all have missed his point. Bill O wants geeks to kill more people. Real people.
I really fear for the United States because, believe me, the jihadists? They’re not playing the video games. They’re killing real people over there.
Jonohan has had the best post here by far.
“Maybe if the jihadists had video games they wouldn’t be shooting real people.”
Really. Dropship (literally, heli-drop) a bunch of wiis
Olberman isn’t well liked at work:

Democrat liberals suck!
