Bill O’Reilly and Kirsten Powers Yell Over One Another About ‘Passive Racism’

Bill O’Reilly has brought up his disgust with the violence in Chicago time and time again. On tonight’s O’Reilly Factor, he accused mayor Rahm Emanuel of “passive racism” for allowing the violence to continue when it would never be allowed in Beverly Hills or the rich parts of New York.

Kirsten Powers, an analyst, couldn’t believe what she was hearing and challenged O’Reilly, demanding to know if he was really implying that Emanuel could have a secret hatred of people of color that was lending itself to the terrible conditions in Chicago.

O’Reilly and Powers argued back and forth with O’Reilly’s voice rising so much that she had to ask him not to yell at her. Watch above.
