Goldberg Calls Out Fox News Hosts ‘Pretending To Be Journalists’…On Fox News
This conversation just couldn’t happen anywhere else. This was a, for lack of a better term, “fair and balanced’ look inside the very network airing the discussion. O’Reilly didn’t shut his mic or shout him down – he countered some points, agreed with others (it should be noted, he does sometimes shut mics and shout down). Keith Olbermann and even Rachel Maddow have never had similar discussion about MSNBC and liberal bias. Just look what happened to Dana Milbank, and he only criticized Obama before he was shown the door at Countdown.
Instead, O’Reilly, the top-rated cable news host for 106 months and running, embraces dissent and disagreement. It’s what makes him #1. And what happened two segments later? He had on Glenn Beck – for a serious, and at times fun, discussion about Obama, Beck’s radio days and more. Why? Because he knows good TV.
Here’s the complete Goldberg segment last night (he talked about Dan Rather as well). We tried to embed from FNC but it didn’t work. The key part of last night’s segment:
