Bill O’Reilly needs to settle down.<\/p>\n

Mother Jones has written a scathing piece alleging that the Fox News talk show star fibbed about his coverage of the Falklands War in 1982 while he was working for CBS News.<\/p>\n

O’Reilly has lashed out — savagely — against Mother Jones and one of the co-writers of the piece, David Corn. He said Corn will end up in the “kill zone. Where he deserves to be.”<\/p>\n

Corn took the “kill zone” remark badly. Mother Jones editors have demanded an apology. They won’t get one. O’Reilly called it a “figure of speech.”<\/p>\n

Oh, that Bill. He’s such a kidder.<\/p>\n

I’m still waiting for O’Reilly to prove he actually prowled the battlefield in the Falklands while covering the brief conflict between Great Britain and Argentina. He hasn’t done that. Instead,\u00a0O’Reilly has lashed out with a barrage of pejorative terms to describe Corn, Mother Jones and — as is his modus operandi<\/em> — all those on the “loony left” who have criticized\u00a0his work over many years.<\/p>\n

Let’s get to the issue at hand, Bill: Were you on the battlefield — or not?<\/p>\n\n
