The Six Hundred Pound Lemming

I'll admit it, folks. I've been giving Mr. O'Reilly a fair amount of credit lately. I mean, I've pretty much had to. This, in that, yes, the fellow has clearly been giving a much more balanced presentation these days (yes, especially when you compare him to some of the others at Fox). The only problem (well, maybe not the only one - the MAJOR one) is that he continues to to have this illusion that Fox News, as a whole, has been fair. So, no, in that regard, he hasn't changed a single iota....................................................................................Of course, what I find even more ludicrous is the fact that he's still using those same old talking-points of his, those flat-out distortions, etc.; "Fox has just as many liberals as conservatives", "The network is just as hard on Republicans as it is on Democrats", etc.. And the fact that rarely has a guest on that'll challenge him on it (even Fox's so-called "liberals" capitulate to him). Nobody, for instance, ever points out to him that only conservatives have star billing/their own shows. OR that most of the stories that they cover place liberals in a vulnerable spot, force them to go on the defense, etc.. And, yeah, what about all of those political "analysts"; Karl Rove, John Bolton, Dick Morris, etc.? - nobody challenges him on that stuff, either..................................................................................I don't know, folks, the entire thing seems a little too convenient to me. And as for Mr. O'Reilly himself, while, yes, he can be doltish at times, I would think that even he has to know (on some level, anyway) that this is utter nonsense. Either that, or he IS paranoid. Obviously that's a real possibility, too.
