Billy O’Reilly is such a jerk off. I never care what he has to say and I have never seen his program. The only time I see his ugly mug is when he makes some stupid remark that makes its way onto “Best Week Ever” or “Talk Soup” or those type of shows.

Bill O’Reilly is a douche. No one likes him. Seriously. Everyone hates the guy. And like ViolentMike said. The only time I ever hear about him is when he says something stupid and it ends up everywhere.

what a fuckin douch bag ill put him in a rear naked choke and snap his head off

how is this even a news show? there has gotta be something worse than katie couric getting fired and mma coming to cbs in the world. Bill Oriely’s show is boarderline entertainment tonight.
        BRITNEY WATCH!!!!!!

CBS has no integrity? I think FOX News has no integrity. They have one-sided debates about things they don’t understand and not just MMA.

as much as blowhard o retard hates the sport its not going anywere. talk show jerks like him just need to blab about something for there shows if they want to talk about being barbaric they should focus on them selves for lashing out at everything they dont like

yeah i hate the fact that they’re going to have “brutality and blood” on such a family friendly channel…I can’t wait for the next NFL season on CBS…that man is a cunt.

this isnt the first time hes bashed MMA…he had Dana and Rich Franklin on there one time bashing them calling them all kinds of things….Bill O Riley is a pu**y, in my opinion, if you dont like MMA then dont watch it you F**kin loser

MMA is better off not having to share fan bases wih Bill O’Reilly.

It’s one thing for the average person to be ignorant about mma. However, when your job is to report on a subject you should do research. I’m sure the only thing that these people have seen about mma are the 2 second video clips. O’riely himself said that they gouge, which obviously is not true and shows how unkowlegable he is. That is common knowlege for even a basic mma fan.

They slammed Couric more than they did MMA. The piece was just under 7 mins and they only hit on MMA for a fraction of the last 2 mins. The brutality of the sport is part of its appeal and a big reason why people watch it (at least its one of the many reasons I enjoy MMA). It is also geard towards young single men, which in fact do make up the vast majority of fans. I wouldnt go as far as to call it barbaric, but thats only an opinion, much like the many that put in these threads daily. Dont just try to find a reason to hate on O’Reily. He is a libertarian, and if you dont know what that means look it up. Bottom line, MMA was hardly even talked about in this video. And I know its not as ‘kick-ass’ as the shows ‘Talk Soup’ or ‘Best Week Ever’ (you know, shows for people who cant form their own educated opinion on anything), but if you go to Foxnews.com and look in their video archives, they have a quite a few good video interviews and stories about MMA. Bottom line- go put your soap box away!

Who gives a fuck what these old fuckers say. They have no clue about the sport. They would rather watch re-runs of I love Lucy. That is why CBS is trying to cater to the younger demographic because no one gives a fuck about old people who are gonna die in a few years. So just get it over with and die you old fucks.

I don’t hate Fox News like everyone here seems to, but it does seem odd that they don’t have a single defender of the sport to present an opposing view point.

It would be nice if they got someone articulate too. Put Kenny Florian on the show to defend it.

what an effin douche….

You misspelled Faux news mmamania.

Bill O’Reilly is a hateful, bitter old man and that is what he is known for.

This guy wouldn’t have a job if he wasn’t complaining about something. Turn the channel dude.

dana white should kick his ass for always being a biotch i cant stand this guy he just an old grump and he never likes anything unless its gay.

This O’Reilly guy is a moron. He says they gouge, which they don’t, and not all fights are a bloody mess. Heck, some end via submission in quick time. This guy is a knowledgeless baffoon who should do some quality research before he bashes it with unwarranted claims.

What these “fair and balanced” types forget is, they used to play boxing matches on primetime TV all the time. There were no PPV’s, so the “all american family” could watch the likes of Muhammed ALI or Joe Frazier for free. This is not only good for the network, it’s great for MMA as a whole.

i hear that one of the signs of the apocalypse is when Bill O’Reilly says something intelligent.

Celebrity Death Match:
Lucy Ricardo vs. Gina Carano

These shows always mix opinion and fact. Its stupid but oh well. We know what we like and we know what the sport of MMA is. Let to dude ramble about whatever he wants. I dont need his approval and neither does MMA.

FOX …… standards…..Honeymooners….integrity…. Ralph was the first to use an uppercut on TV, on a woman! As for FOX when a two cartoons mock your morals you’re officially a joke.

O’reilly’s gotta be the biggest tool in media. This dude really beleives his own hype, like people out there actually giva a shit about what comes out of his pie hole.

Dude..O’reilly..my man..go to F’in Pennsylvania plow your field and churn some F’in butter, you Amish F$@!

I’m happy about the fact that MMA will get to be seen by a much wider audience and it’s about time that it’s becoming much more mainstream. Hopefully it will let people see how much skill, intellect and sportsmanship is involved in this sport.

However, being in “prime time” (between 6pm-10pm) will open up a whole other can of worms. Parents will not do their jobs and inform their kids that this is for real and should not be done in the schoolyards. Parents are morons these days and don’t monitor what their kids are doing. Kids will see this and think its cool and go to school the next day trying head kicks, armbars, chokeholds, etc. and the controversy will only get worse.

If they keep it on the major networks but leave it until after 9 or 10 at night with a disclaimer before hand, we will avoid the uproar that is bound to happen.

I let my 8 yr. old watch occasionally, if it’s a fight I’ve seen before and know that it’s not too bloody or brutal and always explain to him that it is for real and that it really hurts when these guys get hit. Not to mention that choking someone out is really dangerous. He knows that if he wants to try this stuff then he has to enroll in the proper classes first (BJJ, karate, boxing, etc.)

I hate this guy. Anyone this ignorant about MMA just rattles me. It seriously gets to me, because I’ve come to love this sport over the past several years, and then people like this start talkin’ out their asses. I hate how many times he said the word Brutal. Now I know it can be at times, but the way he said it over and over you know he doesnt like the sport. Man, go play in traffic or something.

All the haters can say what they want. The fact of the matter is its too late. CBS isn’t the only broadcast channel looking too add MMA to its stable of programming. Bill O’Reilly is a prehistoric relic from a bygone era. His opinion is about as releveant as Jackie Gleason’s in todays world.

bill O’reilly should change his name. he has no right to carry the irish name with his pansie attitude and his stupidity. what a fucking GOOF

STFU! u ignorant douchebags this video got me heated

Bill O’Reilly should step in the Octogon. Try to understand something before you judge it.

Bill is now on my hit list

I’m not sure how an MMA match between two consenting adults is brutal. You know whats brutal? Sexually harassing your producer. Biggest hypocrite on TV.

They’re right. MMA is brutal. It’s not for everyone. If they don’t like it, they don’t have to watch it. I don’t like him, so I don’t watch his show.

The irony is that CBS used to be full of family friendly shows like Touched by and Angel and they all got cancelled. The networks just want to give the people what they want so they can make money. It’s as simple as that. If enought people are offended at MMA, then they won’t watch and it will get cancelled. I’m still amazed that enough people watch his show that it doesn’t get cancelled.

FOX has ZERO CREDIBILITY. everything they broadcast is fabricated. i’m surprised that its not obvious to the whole planet.

bill is a pinhead
:D

I thought Fox was supposed to be fair and balanced, lol where is MMA’s side of the story. If you’re going to have these people saying how violent it is, why don’t you have people from the Las Vegas athletic commission telling them how no one in mma has been seriously hurt, unlike boxing. I’m tired of this crap.

Bill O’Reilly may have some retarded views but i love the way he smashes on liberals and democrats its halarious they are all scared to go on his show because they KNOW if they go on none of their opinions matter its all about FACTS. There is only one time i can ever recall a democraft/liberal actually winning a debate and hes had plenty of them come on its just so sad how democrats fail so hard when they are put up against someone who comes wit it.

In regard to the male, non-O’Reilly talking head and his statement that American culture had values back in the day, let’s look at other cultural shifts since his beloved I Love Lucy was on the air: Black people can now go to school, eat lunch, ride buses, etc. with white people; senators are no longer conjuring and falsifying evidence of communist sympathy to imprison people; there were no Miranda rights; there was no Title IX. There’s probably a lot more, but I’ve made my point.

at least he doesn’t like rev Jackson :)

IF THEY CONSIDER MMA BARBARIC, WHY ISN’T BOXING CONSIDERED BARBARIC ALSO???

MMA IS THE FASTEST RISING SPORT B/CUZ ITS EXCITING, ENTERTAINING, AND WE GET TO SEE FIGHTS THAT WE WANNA SEE. MMA IS SUPERIOR TO BOXING PERIOD.

Oreily once said only potheads watch the daily show.

Nielsen research showed, statistically, that watchers of oreily are less educated and poorer than daily show watchers.

Oreily is dumbass and I question the intellect of any fox news viewer and/or oreily viewer.

It’s funny how these old right-wingers, compare modern MMA programming with old-school I Love Lucy programming.

These fools are just upset their day is over.

I wish bill would fuck off.

Its been said many times here but I will re-say it. Bill O’Riley is a douche, racist (if you have not heard the story look it up about him going to Silvia’s in NYC and his comments about it afterwards) and I have to agree with Keith Olbermann, Bill O is truely slowly slipping into senality. Fixed (or Faux) News has been this way for a long long time. Their treatment of anything they dont like (whether it be MMA or atheism) is they bring on a bunch of people who are against it and no one to discuss the other side or no one who is even willing to play devils advocate. News stations are supposed to be fair and balanced, obviously they are going to sway a little more towards their viewership (Fixed News to Republics – MSNBC to Democrats) but their facts should be at least correct and fair.

MMA on Prime Time cable will be really testing the waters so to speak in my opinion. If the ratings are good which as long as all the 18 – 25 Males whom MMA relies on so much turn in, they will keep showing it simply because it brings them viewership. Bill O can sit there and bash CBS all he wants for puting MMA on prime time but I would much rather see MMA then any of the fox atrocities whether that be Americal Idol, rehashed movies made to look new series (Night Rider & Terminator) or whatever else crap they decide to show (granted all station do have their fair share of BS shows)

I’m so sick of these far right know it all’s telling us how we should live our life. What place is it of any of their’s to say what should or should not be on tv? I understand that the values of each generation differ greatly, and I even accept the fact that many if not most people will view this sport as a brutal bloodfest, but get with the reality people: MMA is a marketer’s dream. No other sport has been able to so quickly capture and entire age group that crosses the demographics of race, income, and political preference(sometimes). So I guess my point is that regardless of your opinion Bill, stick with the facts: two men get into a cage/ring and try to show their mastery of any number of various combat disciplines, and many millions of people will pay money to watch this “brutality”.

Here’s what I don’t understand:

The I do not hear the people who complain about mixed martial arts complaining about boxing. I do not hear them complaining about kickboxing. I do not hear them complaining about wrestling.

So why is it that they complain about athletes doing all 3 at once? What is it about the aggregate of legitimate sporting activities that makes the result illegitimate?

There’s just no logic to it.

Hey O’Reily and other dumbass critics why don’t yall set up an interview with mma legends Bas Rutten and Randy Couture I bet they’ll prove you wrong and being a bunch of misunderstood assholes for critisizing mma.

What do you expect from FOX news which is basically a puppet for the most conservative bastards in this country. They are just jealous because CBS’s ratings are going to sky rocket now…LOL.

i don’t understand why people complaining and criticizing about how dangerous mma is. what about these soldiers going to war getting shot, blown up, and dying and nobody saying anything wrong with it, just because they are serving for the country but it seems to be more dangerous than mma. there’s no guns and bullets or weapons involved in mma, i don’t see mma as a very dangerous sport.

The report lost credibility when “gouging” was mentioned.
No credible MMA organization allows this.
Do your homework before going on air.

Lucky for us, networks and advertisers aren’t looking for the gray-haired, tightwad, and dried up old bag demographic.

i’m so tired of news shows like this!
all of them, no matter the network, have one-sided talks.
they don’t debate. debate implys they let another person state his/her own veiws. these “news anchors” say their opinion and if anyone disagrees with them they simply try to talk over them, ignore them, or insult them until it looks like nothing more than a mudslinging match; and for that reason, non of the people like bill deserve the time of day.
nobody has had a real debate about the merit of mma. they call it barbaric and degrade the sport’s integrity without ever having seen an mma match, they only continue to mudsling and condemn the sport.

So a network loses credibility when it airs shows rife with violence. I wonder if the news available on Fox (and anywhere else, for that matter) with its endless parades of rapes, murders, shootings, bombings, and so on. What is the redeeming social value of that? In MMA, at least, the purpose of watching is to enjoy the competition and athleticism, and not to have some sort of odd, fetishized craving for the random acts of violence we see constantly headlining our nightly news programs. Even funnier is the appeal to “family friendly” shows like I Love Lucy, with its ever-present theme of domestic violence.

Bill O’Reilly wouldn’t know “culture” if it fucked him in the ass. His own show is hardly a testament to our culture as Americans, and is in fact an embarrasment for most of us, who wince at the fact that he gets ratings at all, some of it from people who take him seriously and who aren’t just scouring his shows for blooper-reel material to feature his stupidity.

And as a final aside, I think O’Reilly’s promotion of hare-brained thinking, fear-mongering, and virtually everything else he stands for is infinitely more dangerous to our society than any sport could ever hope to be, aside from possibly NASCAR.

I wish O’Reilly would do us all a favor…find the highest building he can and swan dive off…he is a perverted bigot racist and his opinions mean dog shit! I wish we could get him in the octagon with Babalu and tell him to get him in a rear naked and not let go! This time I think he could get away with it and no one would give a frogs fat ass!

My biggest problem is that he is talking about primetime. The first show is on tonight after poker in the dark. Yes, the show will be on prime time television very soon, but as a competitor in mma, I find O’Reilly’s characterization inflammatory. If he would watch an mma show, he might change his opinion. I won’t hold my breath, but it just might happen.

I don’t know which is more brutal MMA or watching Bill O’Reilly drone on for 1 hr.

O’Reilly n’ Group should stick to reporting on the brutally corrupt world of politics.

I actually agree with O’Reilly most of the time, but he made me laugh by saying, the gouging, brutality, etc… lol
They never mentioned how controlled it is by the athletic commission, etc…

Just 3 people in there 60’s who kno nothing about MMA whatsoever.

Your right Bill the times have changed and we want mma on network tv. Your old ass needs to get with the program we “barbaric” viewers now need you to go choke on another bottle of pain killers then right a book for kids because I love your moral rants being blown to pieces by your own douchery

Billy O’Reilly is the biggest tosser ever lyke
All he can do is ge tother old farts to agree with
He is just afriad of what he can’t understand

AND he proved he doesn’t even try to understand it, “Gauging”, do a little research Bill ya ya old git

Bill,

               Do you really think that Russia gives a
rats ass what CNN thinks they are doing in Georgia. Their
Georgia, not ours, Atlanta is a nice town.

I have been wanting to say something, but I wanted to wait until after the elections. One of the biggest mistake the American public made was electing Mr. Obama. I am not a bigot, and I wouldn’t care if, Mr. Obama was purple with yellow poka dots, he is a mistake the American public has made. This man will make America into a Socialistic country and take our freedoms away.

When this happens, I don’t want to hear any complaints from anyone. I’ll probably laugh at the American publics stupidity, especially the news medias.

Mr. O’Reilly thank you for opening our eyes to trouble our country is in.

For all of our Congressmen and women; to all of our Senators may I say – “The Constitution of the United States of America needs to be protected and upheld” – I am LCpl Jim A Rogers,
USMC Ret. Your a— is the grass and “We The People” are the lawn mowers. I VOTE!
