Via Boing Boing: Bill O’Reilly mistakes Globe and Mail for Socialist Worker
Oopsie!1! Oh, I hope I’m the first Majority Reporter to post this in the comment thread.
The Glob and Male as a communiss rag… this particular columnist, too. Oh, that’s rich. Al will get such a kick out of it, too.
Better send it to his blog as well.
I’ve never been called “a douche-nozzle” before. At least, not that I know about anyway. The insult came from one supporter of the Fox News Channel.
But then I don’t think The Globe and Mail has ever been called “the far-left Toronto Globe and Mail” before. That’s what this great newspaper was called by Bill O’Reilly on the Fox News Channel on Monday night.
Reacting to my column, which cheerfully suggested that the proposal to bring the Fox News Channel to Canada should be acted upon promptly, so that we can all take a look, and get a laugh, O’Reilly gave us a Fox-style whacking. In his segment The Most Ridiculous Item of the Day, he quoted from my column (which called him “pompous”), dismissed The Globe as a lefty outfit and said, “Hey you pinheads up there, I may be pompous, but at least I’m honest.”
“Douche-nozzle.” Heh. He was called that and much, much more by a number of products of the American educational system whose primary news source is Fox.
