). Interestingly, O'Reilly can't even read the RCP critique correctly and managed to mangle the numbers to say exactly the opposite of what they actually say.
Hill stayed on point, and O'Reilly refused to budge. He eventually resorted to that old standby, BillO Projection Theater:
O'Reilly: You believe what you believe, but I think you came in with a preconceived notion. And so did the professor.
Hill: No, I came in as a trained social scientist reading a study.
O'Reilly: You came in with two examples. I rebutted.
Hill: Yes, with fallacious information.
O'Reilly: No, it's not fallacious. Real Clear is very clear about how they did it.
Hill: No. But they're wrong.
O'Reilly: You say they're wrong, they say they're right. Let the audience decide.
Hill: Audience, please look at the study and read this for yourself. You'll see.
O'Reilly: OK! I want them to!
Hill: And if it turns out that my interpretation is correct, would that then make the Tea Party racist?
O'Reilly: No.
Hill: Well then you're saying I can't win! Even if they agree with my interpretation of the study, you're still right!
That's right. Why liberals think it will ever be any different on O'Reilly's show -- or any Fox show, for that matter -- is beyond me.
