Faux News Retractions for Billo

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2015/03/fox-news-forced-to-backtrack-again-over-bill-oreillys-reporting-claims/

snip:

Fox News has admitted, in answer to questions from the Washington Post , that host Bill O’Reilly did not witness any bombings in Northern Ireland or murders in El Salvador. The network said he saw only photographs of such atrocities.

In other findings, Billo was not at Gettysburg, Iwo Jima, the founding of the Beatles, or the explosion of the Hindenburg. Oh the humanity, he only saw pictures of those too.

for f**x newz to say sorry.

I could write I was at the holocaust then, since I read "Diary of Anne Frank" in 6th grade.


Why isn't he being reprimanded ? and/or suspended.

He is a disgrace to any program. He should be fired or replaced.

Isn't Fox newz demographic avg age 70-75? I had read that their audience is shrinking even among the die-hards, bcs of this.
