Dear [Person]:
Stating that kidnap victim Shawn Hornbeck was “having more fun” with his kidnapper than his family is reprehensible in every sense of the word. Blaming the victim, especially in this case with evidence suggesting sexual abuse, is beyond vile. You should speak with mental health professionals and physicians to get a truer understanding of the mental trauma kidnaping inflicts on eleven-year-old children.
The only decent thing you could do, besides resigning, would be to use your “Talking Points Memo” to offer a heartfelt, sober retraction of your entire segment and issue a similar apology directly to Shawn Hornbeck and his family.
For the record, that [person]’s email address is oreilly@foxnews.com

Just ignore O’Reilly he is nothing but a bully. I would like to see him as an elected offcial try to pull the crap he does on his TV show. He is ignorant and plays to an ignorant viewing audience.

I am also glad that WTKK took that right wing nut job Sean Hannity off the air. now if we could only get rid of O’Reilly.
…but this is sick.
