Bill O'Reilly loses his cool in an "interview" with Geraldo Rivera


It's almost like watching two drunk frat boys argue about college football

It's not really the content that surprises me, but more the finger-pointing, raised voices, and inability for these two professional television journalists to sit still and speak reasonably while on television. Did anyone see this live? I'm wondering if I missed anything else in this interview. These two have to have a history somewhere for them both to act this way. While I'm not at all a Geraldo Rivera fan club member, O'Reilly became a talk show host who wouldn't allow his guest to talk and it's almost disturbing how quickly he got worked up after his views were challenged. He refuses to listen and while there are two voices, you can tell that O'Reilly is only hearing his while Rivera at least responds to O'Reilly's comments. Was it because Geraldo said "Irish drunk?"

There are some people who always have to be right and somehow, even when they're wrong, they're still right. There are people who argue, but forget to listen. As a result, there is no solution, but yet, these people feel satisfied. I am not friends with those people.
