Debbie Schlussel: HOprah Watch: O'Reilly Suck-Up Sequel Edition
Well, now we know why Bill O'Reilly was so eager to get on Oprah--and so eager to pander to her and sell-out by calling her a "traditionalist" (when she's the queen of progressivism). That was back in October.
Today, O'Reilly is on Oprah, yet again--this time being hailed by HRHSBotU (Her Royal Highness Supreme Being of the Universe) Oprah as the king crusader against child molestation. You see, O'Reilly desperately wants credibility with the airheaded, liberal women who watch Oprah. They are a far bigger base to which to sell books, etc. than his own much smaller FOX News base.
Anatomy of a sell-out. Not that he ever was a real conservative in the first place. He wasn't. He sold out whatever he was before to appeal to FOX News' audience. And now--with a yearning to "grow" his audience--he's selling them out for HRHSBotU and her audience.
That's showbiz. But it sure ain't principle.
It's good to be tough on crime. But not good to be soft on HOprah when she's opposed to everything you pretend to stand for. And when the things she promotes on her show--like sexualizing teens--are part of the reason for the increased child molestation.
I guess O'Reilly forgot Oprah's much-publicized show on "Rainbow Parties" and "Tossed Salads". Or her equally graphic show glorifying the teens who bragged about wanton sex and oral sex with hundreds of men they didn't even know.
Hello . . .?
Oh, and don't you just love how she excuses honor killings and assorted rapes and molestations of women in Islamic countries? But, yet, she's America's new moralist against molestation. Stop being a hypocrite, HOprah.
