1. O'Reilly covered civilian protests in Buenos Aries

Buenos Aries is 1300 miles away from the Falkland Islands.

A comparison to this within the United States would be thus:

Bill O'Reilly was in New York City doing his show during Hurricane Katrina. If Bill O'Reilly claimed he survived covering the horrors of Hurricane Katrina reporting from New Orleans, it would be similar to claiming he covered combat in the Falkland Islands from Buenos Aries.

Of course this comparison is not completely accurate since New Orleans is actually closer to New York City than Buenos Aries is to the Falkland Islands.
