I’ve mentioned my distate for Bill O’Reilly several, several, several, several times before and his latest screaming actions and rants about The Insurgent, a “anarcho-syndicalist/marxist/crazy” publication on the UO campus, and how UO President Dave Frohnmayer should be fired, is absolutely asinine.
For those who don’t know what the hell I’m talking about, the Oregon Commentator is actually covering the whole thing just as well if not better than the Campus Daily Newspaper. But long story short, the Insurgent ran some offensive images of Jesus, people are mad, Bill O’Reily still doesn’t obviously understand the constitution or the rights of a student press on a public campus, and thinks President Frohnmayer should be fired for not taking action even though Frohny is absolutely correct in not taking action against the paper — though he really can’t do anything anyway. The quote of the day is right here: “Bill O’Reilly doesn’t know the First Amendment from the back of his own hand, which is a shame because he takes full abuse of it.”
A good wrap up of everything that’s been going on can be found here.
On a related note, my site is the #1 result for Bill O’Reilly is a moron, so at least I’m accomplishing something.
Update: The Oregon Commentator has a link to a PDF here but since they have limited bandwidth, I’ve gone ahead and mirrored it here.

Thanks for the link, Jake. You should see the O’Reilly bots going nuts in the comments over there. Damn bunch of crazy nutters they are.
I don’t give a rip about Bill O’Reilly. I didn’t even like the Insurgent. The Commentator, amazingly enough, was a great read, mainly that they balanced being old-school Republicans with sobriety-challenged college students.
