In this video a videographer takes a film of Bill leaving a Newt Gingrich fundraiser, which certainly seems odd considering the pains Bill O'Reilly goes to on his show to not specifically endorse a particular candidate. Now realistically, Bill can support privately any candidate he chooses. Heck, MSNBC actually comes out and SAYS who they support. If Bill in his off time wants to party for Newt, well he's ALLOWED to.
But I get disappointed when Bill is not only rude to the videographer (which he should be used to by now, he IS a celebrity of sorts) but he HITS the guy with his umbrella! This just makes it look like his actions are even more sinister! Not to mention unworthy. Keep it up Bill. I already don't like the way you interview people, but I guess since I don't watch your show, it's really not going to affect your ratings.
Update: I recently was made aware of Bill O'Reilly's take on what happened. He says he was coming from a White House Media Party, and not a Newt Gingrich fund raiser, which immediately changes this WHOLE thing. While I'm still not terribly impressed with Bill's handling of the situation, I suppose I can be a little more forgiving based upon the fact that Bill, in many ways, is a hated "face" of American conservatism. Perhaps that umbrella in the face was necessary. Who knows?
