Tim Graham Doesn’t Get It

8:06 am EST June 19th, 2009 | Media | 6 Comments

Media Research Center’s Tim Graham thinks that – ho-ho! – he’s got Huffington Post by the tail because in a story about Bill O’Reilly’s serial use of sexy images to denounce sexy images, Huffington has a few stories with sexy images. Of course, the problem is, as far as I know the HuffPo has not made it one of its major goals the eradication or shunning of this material. In fact, based on what Arianna Huffington herself has said on these issues in the past they’re okay with them. But what Fox News does, and particularly O’Reilly, is try to eat their cake and have it too.

Often O’Reilly will discuss how disgusting it is to “exploit” some “young women” to sell a product or whatever and in order to display his disgust they roll b-roll footage of scantily clad poledancers. It’s hypocritical. That, of course, flies right over Tim Graham’s head.

    I’m not sure I could tag a current topless photo of Lindsay Lohan under ‘sexy images’, but I guess to each his (or her) own.

    Good find, News.

    If it weren’t for this kind of titillation and at the same time denouncing said titillation, their viewership would hit the deck.

    Just trivia: the saying is “have your cake and eat it too”. You have used the “Unabomber reversal” which was recognized in the Manifesto by Ted Kaczynski’s brother and led to his identification. Hmmm.
