As usual, Leftists can dish out the abuse wholesale but cannot take even mockery back. O'Reilly did a mocking imitation of Helen Thomas (above) as a crow and said she was like a wicked witch. Much indignation flowing from the Left:
"Bill O'Reilly can't deepen my low regard of him. I expect little that is fine, decent or humane from him. When he attacked Helen Thomas, a veteran journalist, on his Comedy Hate show that passes for news at mainstream media, I shook my head in disgust.

Thomas is a White House press correspondent and has been a journalist since 1943. I won't repeat any of the derogatory things she has said about GWB and Cheney. I think O'Reilly was right to mock rather than criticize or abuse her -- as her own behaviour is a mockery of any pretense at journalistic impartiality and objectivity. Respect has to be earned.
Amusing that the Leftist writer above describes Thomas as a "veteran journalist". Half truths are a common tactic from the Left. If a full description had been given (such as: "Veteran journalistic enemy of conservatives") a quite different impression of O'Reilly's actions might have emerged.
