Olbermann exposes O'Reilly on Malmedy While O'Reilly was debating Wesley Clark on his FOX show, Bill once again was short on the facts. It proves my theory once again that some talking heads will say just about anything to make themselves sound right. Video-WMP Video-QT (Full rough transcript) Olbermann: The bodies at Malmedy were not found until a month later. There were 84 of them, all, American soldiers. More than half showed gunshot wounds to their heads. Six had received fatal blows to the head. Nine were found with their arms still raised above their heads. The fact that O'Reilly got these horrible facts completely backwards -- twice -- offended even his own usually compliant viewers. From his program Wednesday night...Wrong answer. When you're that wrong -- when you're defending Nazi War Criminals and pinning their crimes on Americans, and you get caught doing so -- twice -- you're supposed to say 'I'm sorry, I was wrong'... and then you should shut up for a long time. Instead, Fox washed its transcript of O'Reilly's remarks Tuesday -- its website claims O'Reilly said "In Normandy..." when in fact he said "In Malmedy..." The rewriting of past reporting -- worthy of Orwell -- has now carried over into such on-line transcription services as Burrell's and Factiva. Whatever did or did not happen later, in supposed or actual retribution... the victims at Malmedy, were Americans, gunned down while surrendering -- by Nazis in 1944 -- and again, Tuesday Night and Wednesday Night -- by a false patriot who would rather be loud than right. "In Malmedy, as you know" Bill O'Reilly said Tuesday night, in some indecipherable attempt to defend the events of Haditha, "U.S. forces captured S.S. forces who had their hands in the air and were unarmed and they shot them dead, you know that. That's on the record. And documented." The victims at Malmedy in December, 1944... were Americans. Americans with their hands in the air. Americans who were unarmed. That's on the record. And documented. And their memory deserves better than Bill O'Reilly. We all do.

Speaking of another bill.........Bill &!#^&^!^#! O'reilly......he's claiming that the left is using the marine killings in Haditha to promote its agenda. Next he will be claiming that liberals dressed as marines and committed the crime themselves. He's a self absorbed a_hole...is anyone listening anyway? Although his viewership has been in decline for the past year, he is still the most popular whatever he's called........talk tv spokesperson? Nice...huh?
