Fox News star nutter, Bill O’Reilly, has had a nasty blast from the past run wild online. It’s an old clip of O’Reilly completely freaking out and hurling abuse over some minor technical hitch while he’s trying to record some fake spontaneity.
This is something that really has to be seen to be believed :
And note the calm, though tense, voice of the producer, counting the Rage King in. Obviously he’s dealt with prissy, temperamental and obviously disturbed ‘talent’ like Bill O’Reilly before.
Some background from Raw Story :
The bombastic Fox News host is known for taking the left to task for its bad language. In February, he played a montage of mostly-liberal celebrities cursing on television and complained, “If someone does that on my program? Believe me, they’d get scolded.” He added, “They’d never dare do it here. You know why? Because they’d be called on it. And they’d be humiliated in front of millions of people.”
In the newly revealed clip from Inside Edition, where he was a host before joining Fox News in 1995, O’Reilly runs into a problem with his teleprompter. “I can’t read it, there’s no words on it,” he complains. “I don’t know what that means, ‘to play us out.’”
After twice blowing the rehearsal of his closing line, O’Reilly finally erupts, screaming, “We’ll do it live. Fuck it! … Fucking thing sucks!”
What else can you say after viewing that clip?
What a total arsehole.
No wonder, then, Rupert Murdoch loves him so much.
