More Ridiculous O’Reilly “News”!

by Megan Gamble | 7 Comments

Bill, we meet again.  Dear readers, I am sorry to be posting the name of this offensive man again so soon, but I really couldn’t pass this up.  Turns out that Bill O’Reilly is going to personally boycott the whole of Minnesota because Al Franken ” will be officially seated in the U.S. Senate.”  (You heard it here first!)  O’Reilly’s boycott attempts to have some teeth by promising to not shop at Minnesota owned businesses, but let it be known that ole’ Bill is a big softie who will also not allow himself to enjoy “beautiful snowy landscapes” and his “beloved Mary Tyler Moore show reruns.”   Best of all, he will hereon out refer to the Great Lakes as “the Four Great Lakes and one I consider inconsequential.”  Ha!

    Let’s all call on our cable companies and other fox outlets to help O Realy boycott MN 100%. Get him off the air in MN.

    When the Republican convention was in town, Bill O’Reilly visited. Other than that who has ever heard of him being here before? I just hope he has informed his doctor not to use any of the life saving devices manufactured by 3M and Medtronic. He will have to also inform his chef to not use a bunch of food products from flour to turkey. Just think up a nice list and send it to him.

    The actual funny part is that the whole nation seems to be boycotting buying anything because of economic fears, what’s Bill’s boycott going to do on top of that?

    Right….except it is an April Fool’s joke. It works pretty well because the dude that cooked this up (Steve Young) knows none of us watched O’Reilly’s show last night.

    I am fortunate enough to be unable to afford anything but the basic satellite package, which does not include Fox. I suppose it is a double edged sword because I cannot see Maddow or Olbermann either. I guess I still have access to the most comprehensively accurate news in cable, Comedy Central.

    Joke or not, what is true - and equally incomprehensible - is that it’s plausible.

    Here’s what we do know:
    1. O’Reilly may not have declared a boycott on everything Minnesotan last night, but he did hint at the possibility of a boycott of all things Spanish on his Monday show - that’s an entire country. “Unless Spanish Prime Minister Zapatero condemns this action, I won’t travel to Spain.”
    2. The subject of tonight’s Talking Memo: “giving crazies air time.”
    3. None of the above are April Fools’ Day jokes.*

    *For serious.
