The Falafel Police

The security arm of Murdoch's mafia is apparently now acting as Billy O's private police force. "Halt, or I'll beat you with a loofah! Say, you have spectacular boobs..."

Media Matters - Olbermann on O'Reilly's "Fox security" threat: "Bill thinks he has his own police"
From the March 3 broadcast of MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann:

OLBERMANN: Bill O'Reilly is now threatening callers to his radio show, at least one of whom mentioned my name. Our third story on the Countdown -- oh, here we go. First, it was the warnings to NBC chairman Robert Wright, then the phone calls to NBC president Jeff Zucker, then the petition to get me fired and Phil Donahue brought back, then the erroneous ratings information he gave out. Even in that context, though, this is pretty special. Ted Baxter telling uncooperative listeners that he'll turn their phone numbers over to Fox security, and that Fox security will in turn contact the local authorities. Bill thinks he has his own police.
