Bill O'Reilly, coward

From the Media Matters Website. It's on, bitch!

Well, Mr. O'Reilly, you have attacked me publicly on numerous occasions, and you refuse to face me. You, sir, are a coward -- by your own definition of the term. You are "hiding under your desk" (to paraphrase your August 26, 2003, claim about a "coward" who declined to appear on your show) rather than allowing me on your program to discuss your insults. You are "gutless," to borrow the phrase you used on January 10, 2003, and February 8, 2001, to describe people who would not appear on your program. I attach additional examples of your pejorative descriptions of those who decline invitations to appear on your broadcast.

Thhwap (hits O'Reilly with glove) GOOD DAY...SIR.

Should you continue to refuse this offer, it is only reasonable that the American people will conclude that you are not only -- as you would put it -- a "coward," but a hypocrite as well.

Sincerely,

David Brock
President and CEO
Media Matters for America

Side note to David - if this goes the way it usually does when questioning wingnuts, I think Zell Miller has a pair of dueling pistols you can borrow. Be careful though -- they shoot farther to the right than anyone thinks, and I don't trust O'Reilly to wait the full ten count.
