Hell Freezes Over...[ Hillary Clinton on O'Rielly ]
#13
The problem with going on O'Reilly is that he has a record of shouting down his interviewees and occasionally cutting their mikes when he starts losing the argument. I bet the candidates insisted on some stringent rules that didn't allow him to do that.

I dislike O'Reilly and some of the other Fox commentators because they do the exact opposite of the Daily Show. Even though O'Reilly and Jon Stewart are both comedians (though O'Reilly doesn't realize it), O'Reilly's schtick is abusing and using unfair means to belittle his interviewees and cut off their explanations, whereas Stewart generally uses pretty civil debate tactics and allows his conservative interviewees to have their say.

I think it's pretty funny that the closest analog to a supposedly serious Fox News program is a comedy show.
