History of O’Reilly boycott threats:
China, April 2001
Red Cross, March 13th, 2002
France, March 21st, 2002
Canada, June 2002
Pepsi, August 2002
Talking Points rarely endorses boycotts. The current boycott on French products is an exception because that country is actively working against the USA. But we know the boycotts are very, very serious. They hurt people — sometimes innocent people. And they should never be entered into lightly.
Interesting. Did the gov’t of France get hurt by the boycott? Did the people? Hmmm.
Coming up next: Bill O’Reilly plants a French passport on a suicide bomber in Iraq! Hilarity ensues! Stay tuned!
