Get the popcorn! This is going to be awesome.

On his Fox News program, Bill O'Reilly called Mel Gibson's recent anti-Semitic comments "inexcusable," but said it is "more important" to discuss the "point where the media and individual Americans start to enjoy the suffering of rich and powerful people." Guest Geraldo Rivera later suggested that O'Reilly refer to "that schmuck from MSNBC," apparently MSNBC host Keith Olbermann; Rivera added that the "schmuck from MSNBC" is a "lowlife." Rivera also asserted that Comedy Central hosts Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert "make a living putting on video of old ladies slipping on ice and people laughing" and that they "exist in a small little place where they count for nothing."

As if these two schmucks have a prayer of surviving a battle against Keith Olbermann, Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart with a shred of their dignity intact!

Jon Stewart's and Stephen Colbert's response:
Hard Rain

Colbert puts Stewart On Notice for not apologizing to Geraldo

Jon appears on Colbert Report for being called out





PS: Keith Olbermann responded to the Faux News paindits' collective idiocy, of course.

WOW -- Stephen Colbert was a guest of "Papa Bear" last month (why did I only now hear of this!?) and guess what else?

Seth MacFarlane later made a guest appearance on Countdown with Keith Olbermann to discuss that prolly-never-gonna-happen-again appearance...
