Yes, I am sure YOU would know that he pulls the plug on everyone when he gets in deep water, right? Since you watch the show so much and know this. 😆

You don't need to watch his show regularly to see him commit this act, I watch a few minutes of his show every now and then and I see him pull the plug on people when he's being out-debated all the time. Of course, he uses the excuse that they're "avoiding the question" because they're attempting to give an in depth answer to his question beyond the "yes or no" answer he tries to trap them with.

In-depth answer? You mean stupid run around to avoid answering?
Bill O'Reilly got wasted. He might as well have gone on Ultimate Fighting. My fave moment:
O'Rielly:With the hurricane and Iraq and all these tragedies all you and that French guy Colbert ever do is add insult to injury
Stewart: Well, we may do that sometimes but at least we don't add injury to injury.
I mean last time he was on, at least O'reilly tried to be civil, but this time it was a Jon Stewart beatdown not seen since he got crossfire canceled.

No. Bill O' Reilly knows that if people actually start to get in-depth on HIS topics and HIS questions, he can't do anything. So he tries to trap them.
When they don't fall for it he either talks over them or cuts them off. They try to give him an answer. If it's one he doesn't want, which is most of the time, he cuts them off.

Lol have you ever even watched the show? Maybe he did that a long time ago..but he hasnt done it in a long time. He never cuts people off, that is just stupid to say that.
my fave bill O'reilly lie:
the poverty rate under bush is lower than it was under clinton at this time.
explanation:
when clinton got into office, the poverty rate was 15%, it then went down under clinton and was at 12% in his 5th year, going down. when Bush got in, the poverty rated started going up, until at his 5th year in office, it's at 11% and going up? See, this is what's called spinning the nose spin zone and lying out your ass.
Bill O'Rielly looked foolish. Comments about Colbert being french (which I assume were attempts to be funny) and dodging questions by doing what? Talking more about the french.
When confronted by the fact that no WMD's were found in Iraq, O'Rielly's response," Don't buy that Leftwing Line" then he ....once again talked about Franch.
That was a stunning display of an inability to think on your feet and having anything intelligent or relevant to say.
But I'm sure it impressed O'Rielly's fans.
