You are just learning this now?
Yes, I am. I know he's an entertainer, but I never expected Bill OReilly to LIE on the air - and now we're accepting FOX' own admission that mixing fact/fiction, and not telling viewers, is just part of OReilly's daily protocol. Now I'm hearing any FOX voice can just mix in "I witnessed..." with "I saw pictures of..." and that's a-okay with the network!
So when Megyn Kelly gets caught lying about something, or Shep comes out with the next bombshell watergate, we don't know what's truth and what's "made up for entertainment purposes".
FOX fuckked up bigtime in this case, by smiling and patting OReilly on the back for getting caught in nearly a dozen major wartime credibility lies. They screwed up. Cause now ALL of their people are painted with the same brush - They can lie to viewers for decades, and even mock others who lack the same made-up experience... and FOX will support them. Wait til Megyn Kelly asks Michelle OBama why michelle didn't spend 20 years in the Navy seals like Megyn Kelly did lol.... "Oh, but I saw it in pictures..."
FOX screwed up.
