If someone watches Fox news on a daily basis I'm not interested in getting them into Bitcoin.


Stewart already touched bitcoin once.

How about reaching him?

Colbert and Stewart report on what the news reports, and O'Reilly is considered the news, and is one of their main focal points.

The plus is that he has a lot of viewers.
The negative?


Such a nice guy  Smiley

The negative is that all of his viewers are braindead inbred psychopathic fucktards without a clue and no desire to get one.

Fox is a parody news outlet whose viewers are illiterate imbeciles waiting for jesus and who loathe education, science and technology.

Bitcoin would make their heads explode.

I really think that if he gets enough emails he will say something, and if he says something everyone will have a little segment to talk about O'Reilly talking about it.

So if a bunch of faux news viewers see a report on bitcoin (even on the unlikely chance its in a positive light) what's the upside? The amount that it would actually draw into bitcoin would be so tiny since many 65+ year olds have trouble with the computers and those internets, let alone the billclams or pitgoins or whatever they're called...you know those computer dollars

Feeling generous?

I don't watch Fox News but isn't your statement as overly generalized and prejudiced as you believe all of their viewers to be?

Spending time on Fox News or their viewers has a worse return of investment than setting up a GPU mining rig.

o'reilly has the number one news show, with average 409k viewers in 25-54 demographic. so the attack on his viewers is an attack on the majority...do you really think that you are better than most people? hint: you aren't.

he is always balanced, great show

I love OReilly. He's the funniest dufus ever. It's hilarious to watch him struggle with understanding even the most basic facts in any subject. Him trying to get his head around bitcoin would be like watching a dog attend a math class.  Cheesy

He is probably "struggling" with how to spin reality.
OReilly is not dumb, he knows plenty of "basic facts on any subject."

I don't like him, but he is really good at what he is trying to do.

I'm a quasi-techie and only first learned about Bitcoin in early 2012 when the price was sub $20. O'Reilly is not new to talking about Bitcoin on his show. I'm eternally grateful for the seed that was planted that day. Had I not then watched his show; one of the only times I've watched his show ever; I would not likely be here (bitcointalk.org and financially free) today.

Somewhat unrelated; O'Reilly is a pretty entertaining watch, and Stossel has some good stuff on occasion. I don't watch any TV and rely on other to point to interesting tidbits.

Disclaimer: I was at an older family member's home and was casually watching. I am not a regular Fox News watcher.

ah, just like the rest, Dumacrats don't present facts, just half-truths and character assassination, FOX news is NUMBER ONE in the rating for a reason, they provide BOTH sides, I've watched those "other" "news" stations and all they do is complain about how they want to push their ideas on others and if those others don't change- they boycott, they bash, they lie ...etc.... smart people hold back emotions when debating, but for Dumacrats it is just 'hurry up and call them racist' and we can stop their FREE SPEECH .... obama called Bush unpatriotic for raising the debt by 5 trillion... only obama has raised it over 9 trillion dollars ,....thanks for transforming America into a third world nation, debt doubled, gas prices doubled, did you paycheck double? if you can say yes then you can comment on my right to FREE speech... good luck America...

Aside from the point: Real Libertarians don't watch Fox News. To their credit, they take a pretty neutral stance on a lot of issues. They don't impose their personal beliefs on others or sign them into law. On a political level, they don't really give a fuck about pot legalization or gay marriage or most social issues - they just defer those votes to individual states and rely on the constitution for everything else.

Thank you, so few don't get this. Most people bucket everything into there own (usually wrong) version of a left-right divide, and then when you try to discuss anything with them will just assume every negative of their version of the "other side" and throw that at you. This is true of both sides. In general the libertarians I've spoken with are neutral on these left-right issues and focus primarily on not letting anyone (themselves, large governments, etc) impose their will on others. At the same time in general the lefties are much more likely to assume/throw at me a pile of false positions that I nor most people hold.

o'reilly has the number one news show, with average 409k viewers in 25-54 demographic. so the attack on his viewers is an attack on the majority...do you really think that you are better than most people? hint: you aren't.

he is always balanced, great show

I only watched O'Reilly once, couldn't care what his political views are but if he has a viewership why would anyone be against him discussing Bitcoin???

It's sad but it seems to be more common for people on the left these days to want to shutdown everyone not on "their side". This is true from not wanting faux news to discuss bitcoin, to calling those don't fully buy into global warming science "deniers" to shutdown all discussion (even if you assume the science is right there are still many flaws, but if you don't listen you'll never know them), to many other examples.

Anyone who reflexively says "we don't need those ignorant right-wing faux news watching a**holes" needs to look in the mirror to see what is wrong with much of the world today. From this thread there are many here.

I am sure a whole bunch of people here will say I have this backwards, but I've never seen any thread calling to block bitcoin from being discussed on MSNBC because they hate those ignorant backwards liberals, but you see this all the time the other way....

The only thing that will happen if this idiot mentions bitcoin would be to trash talk it for spamming his email. Just like he did to Stephen Colbert.
