Glenn Beck & Bill O'Reilly?

Question

I perfer Bill O'Reilly - he speaks his mind and says what he means, even if he is a conservative Libertarian.


Glenn Beck is correct on some issues, but is a total hypocrite on many other issues.
Glenn Beck "claims" that he is not a politican - bullcrap, since he is a political commentator with his own show on a nation wide cable news network. Also, I'd like to point out that even though Beck supposedly denounce fear mongering, every other one of Beck's show segments is about how Iran is the next Nazi Germany and how Iran is going to take over Europe. Wes, Iran is a threat - but they are a third world country with a small population, no infastructure, sub standard millitary, virtually no allies, and has an economy 3x poorer than Mexico. Saying that Iran is somehow the next Nazi Germany ...that is hypocrisy and fear mongering at its pinnacle.

What are your thoughts? Which conservative commentator do you prefer?

Answer 1

I saw O'Reilly chasing a giggly Beck down a dark street once around 4-am. They were both in speedos and coated in teriyaki sauce. I figured it was just best to leave well enough alone and stick with The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.

Answer 2

O'Reilly a Conservative? Not by a long shot! He's a shameless self-promoter who found a gimmick, playing to the frightened and ignorant. He assumes the role of 'protector of children,' then hides behind them whenever his populist nonsense is challenged. He denounces "Hollywood" after building his career by gushing over celebrities. He rants about morality and demands that his version of it be shoved down everybodys throat while holding himself to a far lesser standard. He creates "traditional values' that have never existed, except in his own imagination and always linked somehow to Catholic doctrine. He deliberately and knowingly distorts history. His politics (again, anything but Conservative) shift like blown sand to appeal to the mood of his dimwit audience at any particular time. In short, he's a mean-mouthed coward who will say anything that will produce ratings and the fattening of his wallet.

Beck is a pathetic nebbish from the sticks, where his primary audience resides, who portrays himself as being so fragile that he can't bring himself to enter a theater showing an "R" rated movie. His whole act is about fear, fear and more fear.

Answer 3

O'Reilly tends to take off on a tirade without all the facts,...or plain wrong. He has made some glaring historical references, and just kept going. To me,...if you are quoting incorrect facts, dates, and outcomes the point of the argument is lost. His botching of the story of the Malmandy massacre during the Battle of the Bulge was just a silly thing to do,..and to try and spin it as a " you were not listening" was just wrong. He screwed up,...and should have just admited so instead of trying to say that we did "not understand what he was really saying."

Answer 4

I hate both of them. O'Reilly is a hypocrite. He say his show is the no spin zone but he spins every issue he reports on. He talks about all the rappers for their lyrics but he's on tape sexually harassing a woman that worked for him.

Answer 5

Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity

Answer 6

Bill O'Reilly....love him or hate him he is one smart man. He tells it like it is and most of the time I totally agree with him. We need more of him.

Answer 7

Rush. He has a sense of humor and admits he is first an entertainer.

Answer 8

BILL O'REILLY

Answer 9

They're both harpies.
