Bill O'Reilly's Ombudsman

As is almost always the case, Bill O'Reilly's dishonesty speaks for itself.  Two months ago:

Next Thursday we'll begin a new feature on "The Factor" called "The Dhue Point." We've appointed FOX News anchor Laurie Dhue to be your ombudsman.

That means if you have a question, comment, beef or any other musing about "The Factor," you can write to Laurie, and she may well take up your cause.

...Laurie will pick the "Dhue Point" missives, and she promises to be tough on me.

And yesterday:

O'REILLY: First of all, there's a couple of things going on with "The Dhue Point" everybody should know, because we depend on your questions to Laurie. No. 1, there are pinheads who want you to try to embarrass me. Those people come from the far-left precincts. Ignore them.

DHUE: Yeah. I'm getting an awful lot of email saying I'm too easy on you.

O'REILLY: It's all coming -- it's all coming from the haters on the far left. Just throw it in the garbage. But the regular folks who really enjoy this program, what we want you to ask Laurie is why we do things, why we do them. All right? Or "we didn't really like that."

Let the mocking begin...
