Bill O’Reilly’s anti-gay ways

Now, after years of documenting his bile, Media Matters has launched a crusade against the Fox News commodity O’Reilly:

"Fox News and O’Reilly use the topic of same-sex couples and their families to promote his show and incite fear of the LGBT community. Never was this practice more clear than when Fox used footage from Rosie O’Donnell’s cruise for gay and lesbian couples and their families to promote an upcoming edition of the Factor. The promo raised the question: “Is the media celebrating gay culture?” You can probably guess what the answer was.
…
It’s time to tell O’Reilly and Fox News that enough is enough; if anyone should “relax on all this gay stuff,” it’s Bill O’Reilly. I hope you’ll take a moment to contact Fox News and The O’Reilly Factor today and make sure your voice is heard."

  • Here is an example letter you can write to fox and O'reilly:

    I respectfully request Fox News to stop broadcasting homophobic opinion. Homophobic ideas from sources people trust create a dangerous situation for gay and lesbian individuals. If ignorant people actually believe that gay people are bad, and those people are inclined towards violence, it will be easier for them to incite violence when people like Bill Oreilly confirm their ignorance. Here are several examples of homophobia that I find offensive:

    * O'Reilly criticized the inclusion of a lesbian couple as 'cutest couple' in a high school yearbook, saying: "I think private behavior belongs in private settings. ... I don't think it belongs in the high school yearbook." However, he said he would be OK with a heterosexual couple being cutest couple "because that is the norm of society."
    * O'Reilly suggested that allowing green cards for same-sex partners would lead to rampant immigration abuses.
    * O'Reilly called the San Diego Padres' decision to host a gay pride night and a children's hat giveaway promotion during the same baseball game "dumb," "almost unbelievable," and a "mistake." He said it was "insane" to "cluster" gay men and lesbians during a "hat giveaway for any kid under 12," later adding: "You're putting it in a kid's face at a baseball game." O'Reilly also said: "This is social engineering by the Padres.

    I could go on and on, but I believe my point has been made. In the future I would prefer to see news casts about the struggles gays and lesbians face in this country. For example on tax day, you could discuss how gay couples pay higher taxes than heterosexual couples. You could talk about how gay teens are much more likely to commit suicide than straight teens. You could discuss the overwhelming evidence that gay people do not choose to be gay, but are gay, just like heterosexual people do not choose to be heterosexual.

    If you would like more suggestions, please feel free to contact me.

    Thank you for your time and your follow up to this important matter.

  • I honestly would not be surprised if Bill O'Reily is an in the closet homosexual.

    Think about it... how many anti gay conservative politicians have gotten caught doing exactly what they shun?

  • O’Reilly, O’Reilly, O’Reilly.

    I think it wonderful that someone has finally decided to launch a crusade against him.

    But at the same token, he's been bashing African-Americans and Latinos for years, and no one has taken any mass scale joust against his racial, religious, and sexual tyranny.

    If you don't believe this man is a racist, check this:

  • Stone him, no. That would be bad. I'd like to see him committed though to a mental institution.
