Bill O’Reilly absolutely ripped into George Will over the book he wrote about Reagan’s life. And it got UGLY…
Watch below:
Dayaaammm. O’Reilly straight up called George Will a liar, while Will blasted him for misleading America and doing the work of the left in his “extreme recklessness.”
That had to be one of the bloodier conservative on conservative fights I’ve ever seen.
Who do you think won?
UPDATE!!
Here’s a portion of the column that Will wrote about the book that got O’Reilly so upset:
Donald Trump is just one symptom of today’s cultural pathology of self-validating vehemence with blustery certitudes substituting for evidence. Another is the fact that the book atop the New York Times nonfiction bestseller list is a tissue of unsubstantiated assertions. Because of its vast readership, “Killing Reagan: The Violent Assault That Changed a Presidency” by Fox News’s Bill O’Reilly and his collaborator, Martin Dugard, will distort public understanding of Ronald Reagan’s presidency more than hostile but conscientious scholars could.
Styling himself an “investigative historian,” O’Reilly purports to have discovered amazing facts that have escaped the notice of real historians. The book’s intimated hypothesis is that the trauma of the March 1981 assassination attempt somehow triggered in Reagan a mental decline, perhaps accelerating the Alzheimer’s disease that would not be diagnosed until 13 years later. The book says Reagan was often addled to the point of incompetence, causing senior advisers to contemplate using the Constitution’s 25th Amendment to remove him from office. Well.
