Bill O’Reilly attacks homeless vets… for not watching FOX News
Posted on February 1st, 2008 by robertgreenwald

Bill O'Reilly refuses to apologize for his repeated assertions that there are no homeless vets.  Watch it here.

Bill never served in the military, and he makes more than $9 million a year. It is unsurprising that he's out of touch with the plight of the 200,000 homeless veterans living in America.  So we found them, we videotaped them, and we brought a few to O'Reilly's doorstep in NYC.

Then he refused to even let them in the building, and proceeded to mock them on national television… for not watching FOX News!

Homeless people frequently don't have cable, Bill.  Something you might learn if you talked to them.

America's veterans do NOT deserve to be insulted and humiliated any longer.  Sign the open letter demanding an apology from O'Reilly, and pass it on to your friends.

    IF OBAMA'S PRESS CONFERENCES CONTINUE TO BE SO ENCHANTING, SOME REPORTER NEEDS TO THROW A SHOE AT HIM.

    Bull$hit O'Reilly mouths off once again. Mr. O'Reilly, homeless vets DON'T HAVE CABLE TV.
    And to the right-wing neo-cons who post here..you think the Bush/Cheney circus are doing the right thing for our vets, huh? Have you been to Walter Reed Army Hospital recently? Do you know what PTSD is, or do you believe in the Tom Cruise 'cure'?

    Bill O'Reilly? Where does the buck stop with this idiot.

    Fox is owned by News Corp. On its board sits
    Mark Hurd
    Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
    Hewlett-Packard Company

    Next time you are thinking of buying a Hewlett-Packard product, think of the homeless vets and spend your money elsewhere.

    In the meantime drop Mark a letter and ask him why he supports Bill O'Reilly.

    Holy crap. Uh, no shit they didn't see it, they're HOMELESS VETERANS. Basic cable is out of the question when you have no place to keep your TV at even if you HAD one.

    O'Reilly is carving out a nice little niche for himself in Hell.

    My God, it's typical Fox-journalism to accuse homeless veterans for not watching Fox closely enough. They are HOMELESS! Homeless people rarely carry around a TV just to watch Fox.

    An other great example of Fox' great journalism is when Bill O'Reilly uses a bad movie that Robert Greenwald's made just to make him look bad and stupid.

    And of course, everyone who doesn't agree with Bill O'Reilly is a far-left loon.

    Bill Oreilly is purely entertainment and he knows that. He is not there to be nice he is there for ratings. The people who watch him the most are the people who dislike him the most and he knows this. Otherwise if he was anything else he would have no job.

    This is stupid... Are you people just writing to hate on bill or did you lidten to what he said. Look at the people protesting! They don't know what bill said! How can you protest about something when you don't know the facts. Nevermind the reasons. They showed up mad and didn't know why! Alos I've been active duty for over 11 years now. Most probably 80% of the people I saw that left the military wanted to be out no matter what it may bring. A major factor for them leaving (sad as it is) was the abilty to take drugs (primarily pot). Now as for the past generations there must be something done to repay them for what they did for us (Vietnam/Korea) The current generation has had ample opertunities to get their lives in order before getting out(many military programs are in place for this). It's a shame, but pity for them (this generation) is hard for me to muster.

    Buck-you sure do have some very low standards to qualify somebody like O'Reilly as an intellectual journalist.Lying and distorting historical facts-yelling and cutting off mikes of guests who disagree with his opinions smack in the face of any kind of journalistic integrity.Some people sure are easy to please.
  • buck
    Bill Oreilly is more patriotic and intellectual than all of the mental midgets using this website. He is a true journalist. I think you people are very subversive...
  • Grayson
    Don't kid yourself. The reason Fox News is attacked is because it is not incredibly biased towards the Democrats like the other liberal stations would want. The other reason is that Fox News is killing the other stations in ratings, including CNN.

    Democrats, "Do as I say, not as I do."
