Bill Creepy O'Reilly and Fox News Still Won't Apologize For Shawn Hornbeck Comments

It has been a couple of weeks now since the firestorm of Bill O'Reilly's comments about Shawn Hornbeck, but O'Reilly, nor Fox News, have still not offered a formal apology.

After being flooded with calls and emails of outraged citizens and professionals in the child abuse profession, The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children dropped O'Reilly as their planned keynote speaker for a fundraiser next month.

During a segment of his "I'm so great, huh?" TV 'news' show, O'Reilly said that kidnap victim Shawn Hornbeck must have had "fun" during his captivity and that's why Hornbeck didn't escape.

The CMEC ditched O'Reilly, but only after first defending him (they lost credibility too, in my opinion). O'Reilly has been replaced with America's Most Wanted host John Walsh.

What is even more disturbing is that O'Reilly wasn't saying this off the top of his head. As he has said himself, he 'carefully' prepares for his show for hours before it airs.

So, in sketching out what he'd say about Hornbeck that evening, his nutty and twisted logic compelled him to declare: "The situation here for this kid looks to be a lot more fun than what he had under his own parents."

"He didn't have to go to school...There is an element here that this kid liked about his situation."

Hornbeck, who was kidnapped at 11 years old and sexually and emotionally brutalized for four years, was found three weeks ago by police in Missouri.

Well O'Reilly you might as well have molested the kid himself, what a complete idiot.

What O'Reilly said is the equivalent of saying that a girl or woman asked to be raped because she dressed a certain way (he said that once too).

I urge everyone, for the sake of morality and decency, to be counted and send an email to Fox News and tell them you are boycotting all Fox products until O'Reilly makes a public apology to Shawn Hornbeck, the family and anyone else who has ever been a victim of a sexual predator.

O'Reilly, who has ranted for years about judges letting off child molesters with light sentences (which is a crime itself) can't say anything now because he has NO credibility (as if he ever did). The following evening, O'Reilly tried to back-off by saying the following (which just threw barrels of gas on the fire):

"After teaching teenagers in high school, it is hard for me to believe that a normal kid would stay in a horrible environment when escape was easy, especially if the child had confidence in his parents."

That's NOT an apology; it's just another affirmation of what he said before.

Anyone who buys his books or watches his show, shame on you. Watch Keith Olbermann (a straight-shooter) on MSNBC instead since he really went after O'Reilly (see video).

With all due respect to my readers, O'Reilly needs to be put in the dumps. Don't watch his show because by doing so you are voting for a sick man who still refuses to make the apology that any decent person would do.

But Bill O'Reilly, the hypocritical egomaniac know-it-all doesn't have to apologize.

He is somehow superior, or more likely, he is not sorry and still believes Shawn Hornbeck liked being terrorized and sodomized for four years.

Laura Ingraham and Bill O'Reilly Have Heated Exchange

On last night's Bill O'Reilly (barf!) show The Factor, sponsored by the Bush Administration Network (BANFOX), Laura Ingraham roasted Bill O'Reilly and the 'male anchors' at the network as being sexist by showing photos of a woman bathing in the sun, covering a story about a nude party and another story about female workers at a fast food restaurant who wear very short shorts.

She asked O'Reilly to stop doing it.

She also said she doesn't have any problems with gay people! What! Was that really Laura Ingraham saying that? You sure wouldn't hear that from the annoying blabber-mouth Ann Coulter (who has had so much plastic surgery she's almost unrecognizable).

Ingraham said she is comfortable around gay people because her brother is gay.

O'Reilly looked stunned while she went off on him. Do I say "good for her?" because I so dislike O'Reilly? Yes. Because O'Reilly is O'Really an egotistical maniac who is almost as hard to look at and listen to as George W. Bush.

Ingraham also said she thinks it's not an issue that Vice Prez Cheney's daughter Mary is openly gay and having a baby. Can you imagine what the right-right wing of the Republican party really think about that? That's a scary thought.
