Joe Scarborough on OReilly racism

[Alaskan20]

Rick Sanchez and Keith bathtub boy are now where?  Unemployed.

[PoliticalGoodtimes]

Some Humans can run resturants, some Humans can't! Color shouldn't matter at all.

[surfer390111]

Bill the Clown.

AKA Scumbag

[Onemellowfellow]

i agree atlallone. I've only known in my 35 years alive in america, one actual african american. MEANING: one man born in africa who moved to america and is now an american citizen. I do have alot of american friends who happen to be black, but none of them were born in africa except the one dude i mentioned earlier. we're all human and each culture of human has its morons. black culture gets people like tyson and jesse jackson, white culture has bill oreilly and george bush administration etc.

[imaplayjason]

Black is a color Africa is the continent from which African Americans originate

[heywoodjablohme]

Easy question to answer.

Bill-O is a dinosaur douchebag.

An irrational religionist drug warrior moron against freedom, property rights, free speech, and now racism.

VOTE LIBERTARIAN

[swim73088]

he honestly thinks its the 1950's.

how can he not possibly realize what he said makes him look like a jackass. if he just apologized and admitted he was wrong then the ordeal would be over. no...even though they have what he said word for word he blames liberal media bias and cnn...wtf?

[libofsharaku]

hahahaha bill is a from a different era

[marcloaf]

Man 35 years ago O'rielly would be on tv wearing a white sheet if he could,burning witches in the streets if that was allowed and praising Jesus all at the same time.

[zeppis2]

o'reilly is an stupid ass, racist mother fucker probably his mom got banged by a chinpanzee then by his dad and sperms combined and gave birth to this dumb fuk.

[johnstja]

I don't like O'Reilly, but I don't think that he meant this to be insulting. It probably just showed his ignorance.

[avibard]

I can't stomach more than 30 seconds of this drivel. O'Reilly is a hack just as Joe Scarborough and his water girls Mika and Willy are too. Who could watch this crap every morning? Really?

[andysnadden]

This peice would play better if Joe would say "african american" rather than "people of color" and "ethnic neighbourhoods".

[atltallone907]

wouldnt work better to me.... i hate being called african american.... i beleive he is saying people of color because he is assuming more than just black people live there. There are also latins

[andysnadden]

He's not refering to the whol neighbourhood. He's refering to the people running that particular restaraunt, and they were african american. If you dont like that word, you can say "black", but "people of color" is an old school word with old school associations. Not really the right choice of word when you're trying to chew out another person for being racially out of touch.

[DameDiabolique]

Personally, I like being called African American. I mean what else is there to call us. Yes we are all Americans and we are all humans but come on, we are not all exactly the same. I think that people need to embrace Multiculturalism instead of trying to be ashamed of who they are. I was not born in Africa but my ancestors are from Africa so that makes me African American. I also have nothing wrong with people saying "black" or "people of color" either. I don't see anything racist about them.

[DebbyNJ]

@DameDiabolique Good point but...One of my closest friends is black. I'm white. My great grandparents came from Ireland on dad's side and Canada on mom's. I feel no connection to those country's. I am an American. Period. And no one thinks to call me Irish or Canadian American. Yet my friend, who tells me she feels no connetion to Africa, is automatically refered to as African American because her skin color is darker than mines. We think this broad labeling is very odd at best.

[hazemaze420]

he says no one was there screaming get me some M F-ing Tea. it just show he has a racist world view and thinks black people are dirty, loud people who he is surprised they can even run a restaurant. he is truly a F*cking Dumb S*it tampon vampire.

[shortyd999]

I believe that he ment to show that all people(blk people for example) are not the sterotypes that you see in the media(music videos, police videos and etc) but the delivery of his msg came off as racist. I dont think he's racist, i just think he doesnt understand

[esc0]

I agree, it's just that he knows that the majority or many of his listeners are conservative whites so he needed to speak in a way that they wouldn't automatically turn him off.

[wolfstormk]

You do not know if a person is a racist until they open their mouth and speak. He can only hide it for so long.

[mikeltod442]

kill o'reilly.....fuck it

east coast avengers all the way!!!

[cygnalsux1]

As much as I detest this sorry-excuse-for-a-jouralist, I think that he was trying to prove a point to his racist throng. Fact is, O'Reilly is not as smart as he thinks he is. He blindly thought he would explain to his viewers that there is less of a need to 'fear the darkness' as in times past, not recognizing the abject racism in his comments.

O'Reilly is and forever will be a simpleton of epic proportion.

[Pr1mroses]

MSNBC can attack Bill all day all they want, but the bottom line is... Bill is not a racist. His words were taken completely out of context. Why don't they be fair.

[GrassrootsWorldview]

Why would you take one moment of your time to defend someone who is a direct asset to mass murder? BLOOD FOR OIL = the Truth. Wake Up Ameria!

[badtown88]

Not everything is taken out of context. O'reilly is a fat, abusive corporate whore.

[cinesimonj]

If you watch the entire clip, you'll realize they are being quite fair. In fact they were beyond fair: Bill O'Reilly holds others in the media world to an insanely high standard(a good dollop of his ideology informs this standard, hence very few will ever meet with his 'approval') - if anybody falls below his standard, he attacks with venom. Yet he routinely falls below the same standard he has set(let alone common decency & professionalism), & attacks those that point out the double standard.

[kingsman565]

LOL! Bill O'Reilly: Sure I like black people. How much are they? I'll buy one off you.

[Srhandel]

Joe should talk he lives in Pensacola, FL. isn't that a totally redneck area??

[thaprofessor12]

yeah. madonna can sell the most records in the world but people know that mariah carey has a better voice. it's something like that. fuck the ratings.

[runnmd]

Who gives a shit about ratings? Soccer is the most popular sport in the world, but I don't like it. American Idol gets great ratings. That doesn't make it good. Way to miss the point.

[runnmd]

That's pretty funny. He busts on Al Sharpton after having dinner with him. I'm sure those at Fox News don't want his audience to know they're friendly.

[ver506]

O'reilly has better ratings because all conservatives only have Fox news network to go to to get the news they're looking for. Independents and liberals have all the other news networks to go to.

[DCdorian]

who actually listens to billo? everybody at Fox Noise are just worthless anchors PERIOD

[teflonmagnet]

these guys are so envious of o'reilly's success...scarbrain can't produce a show that is watchable so they must malign the bigboy...sad.

[GstateBALLER925]

yea ok whatever you say, idiot. keep rationalizing your bullshit. your on a roll.

[teflonmagnet]

just look at the ratings disparity between the 2. get it? no rationalizations needed when the facts are so patently clear.

[GstateBALLER925]

bro, oreilly is a primetime show, this is in the morning. its like apples and oranges. you cant compare two shows at different times of the day.

[teflonmagnet]

now who's rationalizing? but you're right...you can't compare the two.

[GstateBALLER925]

im not trying to rationalize... yes oreilly gets more ratings, i know that, the whole world knows that, but that doesnt mean he has a better show. for all we know, he could have viewers that are complete idiots and they will just watch whoever they think is louder or more entertaining. i used to watch him for that reason myself. but all i know is you cant say hes better because of the viewers, because we dont know the reasons for why they watch him.

[teflonmagnet]

hey, this has been fun, but your argument against o'reilly is degenerating into fantasy. people watch o'reilly because his show is partially personality driven, well-paced, and it contains the most trenchant and informed political commentary around by a wide assortment of punditry (left/right). other shows (olbermann) exist (parasitically) solely to attack o'reilly. bill must be doing something right, right?

i'll give you the last word.

[GstateBALLER925]

its not a fantasy, because you cant prove it otherwise. oreilly viewers are an average age of almost 70 years old, and olbermanns are not even in their 60s. i think that speaks volumes, and olbermann adheres to the younger crowd, and oreilly just to people that want to watch some blowhard clown shout at ppl and point fingers and cut their mics. thats not reporting, that is pointless comedy. and dont say he must be doing something right... cuz thats just your assumption that hes a good anchor.

[GstateBALLER925]

plus, his left/right punditry is idiotic because he doesnt even give the left side the same amount of respect or speaking time as the right, just as long the left side does not tell him what he wants to hear, or spit a different ideology that he disagrees with. olbermann may not have a fact paced show, but its a newscast where you get information and you can make an informed decision when you discuss topics with someone. watching oreilly you just learn how to yell and scream. very stupid.

[cupocity303]

YEAH that explains it. A idiot who is out of touch with the progressive world and culture makes a stupid comment and yeah everybody is just hating on him because he gets the most viewers.

I don't care if the whole world watched O'reilly Factor when it's on, a idiot is a idiot, even if most watched

Most of the people that tune in to the Oreilly factor arent even fans, they just wait on Billo to say something stupid so they can write him a Email and tell him that he is stupid simple as that.

[CANDYPERFUMEGIRL31]

Good for Joe criticizing Bill O'Idiot. Most of the righties are trying to defend his ignorant comments.
