Bill O'Reilly Removed from NCMEC Speaker Gig

Hell Yeah, Good for You Olbermann

Bill O'Reilly Removed from NCMEC Speaker Gig

Bill O'Reilly's execrable statements made shortly after the recovery of Shawn Hornbeck and Ben Ownby have come back to haunt him again. After O'Reilly's statements, Keith Olbermann pointed out the fact that O'Reilly was scheduled to be the keynote speaker for a fundraising event held by the Florida branch of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

Today, the following announcement was posted on the NCMEC website:

In response to the numerous e-mails and inquiries we have received, we are providing the following update regarding the Collier County, Florida branch fundraising dinner scheduled for March 9, 2007 in Naples, Florida. Bill O’Reilly, host of The O’Reilly Factor, will not be a speaker at the dinner. The dinner will be held as scheduled. John Walsh, host of America’s Most Wanted, will be the keynote speaker.

We would like to thank everyone for their comments and e-mails.
