As Big Bill O'Reilly continues

to make a fool of himself, (which isn't difficult), claiming to have been 'on the ground' in the Falklands, we hear from someone who was actually there with him.

"To begin with 'covering' is an overstatement of what we were doing. [David] Corn is correct in pointing out that the Falkland Islands, where the combat between Great Britain and Argentina took place, was a thousand miles away from Buenos Aires," Engberg wrote.
"Our knowledge of the war was restricted to what we could glean from comically deceitful daily briefings given by the Argentine military and watching government-controlled television to try to pick up a useful clue from propaganda broadcasts. We -- meaning the American networks -- were all in the same, modern hotel and we never saw any troops, casualties or weapons. It was not a war zone or even close. It was an 'expense account zone.'"
He also questioned O'Reilly's claim that he was quote "pretty much by myself because the other CBS News correspondents were hiding in the hotel."
"If he said such a thing it is an absolute lie. Everyone was working in the street that night, the crews exhibiting their usual courage," Engberg wrote. "O'Reilly was the one person who behaved unprofessionally and without regard for the safety of the camera crew he was leading."

Bill O'Reilly, one of the best from Bullshit Mountain, and he's a baldfaced liar, where the 'No Spin Zone' is almost as funny as, "Fair and Balanced'. Who believes this crap? Oh yeah, the sheep.
