Think Progress » O’Reilly Producer: ‘We Saved Christmas Last Year’
Waters is delusional when he says that O’Reilly “saved” Christmas and Christmas lights in Great Barrington. The town never banished lights. They only chose to turn them off two hours earlier than they had previously. Additionally, there is no indication that O’Reilly’s outrage had any effect on changing the town’s policies. It only resulted in “angry, even obscene e-mails from across the country.”
This isn’t the first time The O’Reilly Factor has taken credit for things he had no measurable effect upon. In 2005, O’Reilly claimed that his “reporting and some reporting of others” led to lower gas prices. That same year, he falsely claimed that his French boycott “hurt France.”
Will Bill O’Reilly save Hanukkah this year? What about the “War on Kwanzaa” this year?
