I saw it and as I stated on another post every news report I've seen not just O'Reilly's has reverted back to the croc and the baby thing, as if its even relevant to Steves death. Looks more like an effort to diminish the good work he has done than to report his death. Probably because thats what the masses want to hear.

I guess it was becuase of the whole baby thing then, Not a smart move by Steve pulling that stunt, and he deserved to take some flak for that. But i agree with most of you, that one incident should not ruin all the good work he did.

Still no reason to want to shoot O'Reilly though Basswipe. Now you're sounding like the idiot. And i get called a radical on here!? You've officially taken over that claim with you're comments.

I think he meant Irwin's WIfe should be allowed to shoot O'Reilly...

Oh so thats ok then?

He also encouraged her to do so.

Hoping someone gets shot because you disagree with them is pretty crazy.

O'Reilly is a tool who wishes he was Howard Stern or Imus.

He is a pathetic excuse for a shock jock that can't even stick to his guns (see his rampant support for Iraq and now his back peddling running away scared)

What you need to do is see the show before saying I've taken over as board radical.But you're right he doesn't need to be shot.But I'm curious as to how O'Reilly would react after say his wife was killed in a tragic accident and someone like himself insulted the intergity of his dead wife before she was even laid to rest.It was sickening to watch that fool O'Reilly lastnight.He does conservatives(myself included) no favors by professing to be one.

As far as the baby incident goes Irwin made no apologies for how he believed he needed to raise his kids.All his kids were exposed to wild animals many more times after the "baby incident".We might not agree with what he did but it was his choice and his right.

O'Reilly needed to shut the **** up and honor the man for what he was:a good human being.

Maybe O'Reilly was the only report you saw on the subject but I didn't see him saying anything worse than most other News shows.

o reilly is a real POS......you should expect this stuff out of him.

I remember around the same time as the jack mehoffer incedent, he had to settle out of court with one of his co-workers that slapped him with a sexual harassment suit......one of those deals where he pays some insane amont of money as long as she shuts up, and there is 'no public admission of wrong doing'

shame on you BW for watching that channel......let alone that program.
