In case anyone wonders, Fox News’ own Bill O’Reilly spent some time in the media trenches working with Known Lefty Ideologue Dan Rather after the CBS anchor took over from Walter Cronkite, whom O’Reilly eulogizes in this clip ... or at least he uses Cronkite’s memory to bash the liberal establishment.

The opposite of love isn’t hate; it’s apathy.

Accordingly….

The opposite of covering Bill O’Reilly’s senseless babbling isn’t challenging it; it’s ignoring it.

When will progressive commentators learn this? Like Inherit the Wind said, who gives a shit what O’Reilly thinks? He’s irrelevant.

Faux News sure has been spending a lot of time covering Walter. Do you think they are trying to package themselves as hot dog,apple pie,freedom,flag lovin,Walter Cronkite type people.Far from the truth, and people have to call them out for their deception.
