Bill O'Reilly on Sarah Palin email hack - Boing Boing
by Simon C. Ion at 2:34 pm EDT, Sep 20, 2008

Looks like Bill O'Reilly skipped the First Amendment section of Journalism 101. He thinks owners of websites that posted Sarah Palin's hacked emails should be prosecuted along with the hacker who broke into her account. When a Fox news anchor attempts to explain why the websites can't be prosecuted, he refuses to accept it, arguing back with bad analogies, which the news anchor handily demolishes. It's fun to watch.

Watching Miss Kelly argue based on a reasonably correct interpretation of the facts is nice. Watching Mr. O'Reilly arguing back is not nice.
I get the impression that Mr. O'Reilly is intentionally missing the point in order to make a bigger show... kinda like Steven Colbert.
