Orcinus —
... capable of fighting fire with fire than they reckon. O'Reilly and his crew may not like it when bloggers start camping out on their lawns and demanding answers to insultingly partisan questions, shouted aggressively, as they try to get to their cars. Jesse Watters, what's your address? In the meantime, here's John's now-classic guide for dealing with O'Reilly. We recommend frequent if not constant repetition of the words, "Andrea Mackris." UPDATE: Amanda Terkel chimes in on tonight's BillO report. As noted above, there was a lot edited out ...

Fox News Crosses the Line
BlondeSense —
Amanda Terkel at Think Progress was harassed and ambushed by O'Lielly's producer. O'Lielly was the one who intimated that what a woman wears or how much she drinks determines whether or not she should expect to be raped and Amanda merely called him on it. Now he thinks Amanda should apologize to rape victims ? Crazy. Here's the story.

O'Reilly airs ambush of liberal blogger
Michael Calderone's Blog —
... because he'd spoken on The Radio Factor once about what another woman was wearing on the night she was raped and murdered. Terkel, in her opinion, didn't find that relevant.
So last night, O'Reilly aired the ambush -- without addressing how the producer found Terkel -- and called her a "villain." However, O'Reilly then claimed that she was merely being used by NBC Universal chief Jeff Zucker, who he believes is behind some larger smear campaign.
Terkel responded after on ThinkProgress.
Why Is O'Reilly Attacking Amanda Terkel for Highlighting His Rape Comments?
Open Left - Front Page —
... O'Reilly's outrageous comments about the rape and murder of Jennifer Moore in the context of his recent appearance at the Alexa Foundation for rape victims. O'Reilly clearly said--and there's audio proof--that Moore and women who dress in a certain way and consume too much alcohol basically bring rape upon themselves. But did O'Reilly bring up those atrocious comments on last night's show? Hell no!
According to Terkel, "Here are the two things that O'Reilly conveniently left out of his segment:" ...

O'Reilly calls Amanda Terkel a "villain" for highlighting his ugly rape comments
Majikthise —
Last night conservative TV host Bill O'Reilly called Think Progress blogger Amanda Terkel a "villain" on the air for obliquely noting the irony that, he was been invited to headline a benefit for a non-profit that benefits rape survivors. Terkel didn't even mention the much more ironic fact that O'Reilly was invited to a benefit for the survivors of sexual assault despite having been forced to pay over $2 million to settle a sex harassment suit brought against him by his former producer, Andrea Mackris in 2004. ...

Bill O'Reilly wins Media PUTZ of the Week for yet another stalking, this time across a state line
BuzzFlash.org - Progressive News and Commentary with an Attitude | Fight Ignorance: Read BuzzFlash —
... According to Terkel, O'Reilly and his minions tracked down her home address, waited outside her apartment, and followed her car on a two-hour ride to a small town in Virginia. You are going on vacation with a friend, a brief getaway and you get accosted by a stalker who crossed a state line to commit his act. So in a story that goes back to a woman who was attacked, raped, and murdered, and to retaliate for literally repeating what O'Reilly said on the air, their revenge was to accost a woman two hours from her home on vacation for a piece she wrote three weeks before , and ...

... Instead of denouncing the highly unprofessional conduct of your minion (otherwise known as producer Jesse Watters), you proceeded to use highly edited footage of said minion's ambush of knowledgeable and fact-conscious blogger Amanda Terkel to cast her as a villain. How in the world could someone (like a highly partisan talk show host with the most fragile of egos) take someone (like a highly ethical writer) and cast her as a villan? It's a very simple and well-known tactic to some people (like talk show hosts who must defend their fragile egos at all costs). It's known as ...
