And Bill O'REilly just can't stand it.
O’Reilly attacks ‘Simpsons’ as ‘pinheads’ after Fox “#1 with racists” jibe
By David Edwards
Tuesday, November 23rd, 2010 -- 9:18 am
Fox News' Bill O'Reilly got his revenge on The Simpsons Monday but didn't deny the charge that his network is popular with racists.
On Sunday's episode of the long-running cartoon series, a Fox News helicopter carrying a network executive reads, "Fox News: Not Racists, But #1 With Racists."

How do you manage to get "revenge" on a cartoon? Only on FOX, eh?
On Sunday's episode of the long-running cartoon series, a Fox News helicopter carrying a network executive reads, "Fox News: Not Racists, But #1 With Racists."
After the Fox News executive steps out of the helicopter into the head of the Statue of Liberty, the aircraft goes into a tailspin and crashes. The pilot can be heard saying, "It's not fair, we're unbalanced."
The executive conducts a secret meeting where his team plans a new health care scare that will send their ratings through the roof.
Gawker called The Simpsons episode one of the most anti-Republican ever.

I didn't see the show but, now that it's pissed off O'Reilly, and Gawker amongst other conservative douchebags, I wish I had. And the beauty of it all is that there's not one damned thing O'Reilly and FOXnews, or Gawker fot that matter, can do about it. The Simpsons is so popular and such a reliable money-maker that they'd sell their mothers into a Mormon harem rather than lose it.
I'm sure they'll re-run the episode (or maybe not) soon. I hope I get to see it.

| Not the first time they've taken a swipe at the very network which airs them, but probably the best! |
