WASHINGTON, D.C. (HawaiiNewsNow) - (*Snipped)
Congresswoman Colleen Hanabusa responded Friday to remarks made Jan. 3 by Fox News host Bill O'Reilly on social conditions in Hawaii, and his characterizations of Asian-Americans.
"Leave it to Bill O'Reilly to thoughtlessly insult 1.3 million people with one sweeping misstatement.

Good article. You tell him, Hanabusa!
He's such a jerk. IMO

In the business, they will "interview" a multiple of people until they get the low denominator who will give them what they want. Failing that they just use a plant for hire to give them they image they need.
Sad to say they usually find somebody who will say what they want to air and even sadder an audience who will ingest it.
O'Reilly and his kind make a fortune off this "turn" which is part two of the three part illusion.
enjoy.

Anyone who really cares what Fox "News" has to say should move back to the mainland, perferably a nice red state in the flat middle part.

He insulted Asian Americans by saying that they are generally industrious and hard working? Or did he insult liberals by insinuating that liberals aren't generally industrious and hard working?
Although I don't always agree with him I kinda like Bill. I'm sorry if that offends you.

Apparently Hanabusa went on his show Friday. Going to look for the video, or if anyone can post it, thank you.

A week after calling for an apology from television personality Bill O'Reilly, U.S. Rep. Colleen Hanabusa appeared Friday on his Fox News program to confront the conservative host about a recent report examining Hawaii's liberal values and his characterization of the islands' Asian population.
