O'Reilly: Rape, murder victim was "wearing a miniskirt and a halter top. ... very predator in the world is gonna pick that up at 2 in the morning"

http://mediamatters.org/items/200608040004

While discussing the recent rape and murder of 18-year-old Jennifer Moore during the August 2 edition of his nationally syndicated radio show, Bill O'Reilly appeared to suggest that the clothing she was wearing at the time helped incite her killer. O'Reilly discussed several factors that contributed to the "moronic" girl's rape and murder, including that she was drunk and wandering the streets of New York City alone late at night. But in addition to those factors, O'Reilly added: "She was 5-foot-2, 105 pounds, wearing a miniskirt and a halter top with a bare midriff. Now, again, there you go. So every predator in the world is gonna pick that up at 2 in the morning."

According to news reports, Moore and a friend attended a nightclub in New York City on the night of July 26. After discovering that Moore's car had been towed late in the evening, the two girls -- for unknown reasons -- were separated, leaving Moore walking alone near the Hudson River. Moore was later raped and murdered, and her body was found in a garbage bin two days later.

From the August 2 edition of Westwood One's The Radio Factor with Bill O'Reilly:

O'REILLY: So anyway, these two girls come in from the suburbs and they get bombed, and their car is towed because they're moronic girls and, you know, they don't have a car. So they're standing there in the middle of the night with no car. And then they separate because they're drunk. They separate, which you never do. All right.

Now Moore, Jennifer Moore, 18, on her way to college. She was 5-foot-2, 105 pounds, wearing a miniskirt and a halter top with a bare midriff. Now, again, there you go. So every predator in the world is gonna pick that up at two in the morning. She's walking by herself on the West Side Highway, and she gets picked up by a thug. All right. Now she's out of her mind, drunk.

And the thug takes her over to New Jersey in the cab and kills her and rapes her and does all these terrible things to her. And the thug is so stupid, he uses her cell phone, and the cops trace it back to him and they -- and they arrest him and charge him with murder. He had a prostitute girlfriend with him, and she's charged as an accessory to murder. But Jennifer Moore is in the ground. She's dead.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

1. I guess he'd know about sexual predators...

and their various sexual preferences.

[bananarepublican]

79. If marijuan leads to the big H what does sexual phone harrassment lead to?

What do these comments of O'Doofus say about his belief in his own levels of self control? It seems as though he doesn't need a body guard but a public protector on staff.

[Atman]

2. Every creep in the world would nab her...and offer her a loofah.

Right Bill? Admit it, Bill, she made you hot. You had loofah lust running through your own heart. You just can't help yourself...you say monumentally stupid things before you know they're coming out of your falafel-hole.

[AlCzervik]

3. he is a sicko and a total perv.

[ComerPerro]

8. and he has the nerve to say that liberals don't care about sexual assault

victims.

[AlCzervik]

15. and it's another example of him projecting-he doesn't give a shit about

the victim because he was a perp. You know when Olbermann went to commercial last night i flipped over to Faux and there was a sub host on, i wonder if this has something to do with it.

[whistle]

4. There you go, the bi*ch was just asking to be raped, Bill O'Reilly

...would have stooped her if she had walked into his studio dressed like that!:wtf:

[MrCoffee]

5. Every time

I wear my miniskirt and halter top, i get raped and murdered. You'd think i'd learn my lesson by now.

[ComerPerro]

6. She was 18, so she had it coming, right?

[uppityperson]

7. was she eating a felafal? That would do it for OReely

what an asshole he is, narrowminded ignorant-on-purpose fool

[ThomCat]

9. This bullshit again.

I hope everyone here sees through this rape-justification crap.

Nothing she may have been wearing was a rapable offense. Nothing she may have been wearing grants legal permission for the commission of any crime. Nothing she was wearing justifies rape or murder.

Anyone who thinks that clothing causes rape is admitting that they are mentally unstable and don't understand the concept of everyone being responsible for their own actions.

Can we staple O'Reilly to a wall now? With a gag in his mouth?

[swimboy]

14. I'm going to try to get hold of a really big stapler.

:grr:

[rubberducky]

10. Bill-O makes my blood boil

He`s plainly making excuses for a rapist and a murderer. tells us a lot about his sick way of thinking.:grr:

[Xenotime]

59. Randi read some of his ugly writings from his book once...

and it was just as bad. It was very sick.

[tsuki]

80. Actually, it was Billo's talking book that she played. He was reading it

like he was giving a Factor Report. Sick.

[gratuitous]

11. Hard to believe the guy was charged with murder

I mean, when a young woman is practically begging to be killed by virtue of . . . well, just being a young woman is plenty of reason in Billo's febrile little mind.

But Mel Gibson deserves our sympathy and understanding, you vampires!

[dogday]

12. Those halter tops just scream Rape Me!

Don't they? :shrug: WTF This is so ridiculous :wtf:

This girl could of been wearing slacks and a blouse and jacket and it would not of mattered.....

O'Reilly is a horse's ass

Here's to him

[MrCoffee]

18. Wait a minute...

You don't rape and murder every woman you see in a halter top and miniskirt? Didn't you know they want you to? That's why they wear those. So you'll rape and murder them.

[bumblebee1]

21. Gee, instead of being an 18 yr old dressed in a mini skirt

and halter top, what if she'd been a middle class housewife or maybe a nun? What if this housewife was kidnapped from the parking lot of the local supermarket?

[Horse with no Name]

33. Well we ALL know that rape is ALL about sex

:sarcasm:

[elehhhhna]

13. He finished by observing "Hey! I'd hit it!" ASSHOLE

[PleadTheFirst]

55. Please tell me you're kidding

Did he really close a segment about a raped and murdered girl by saying "I'd hit it"?

If he did, then he is even sicker than I had ever imagined.

[elehhhhna]

63. Only in my imagination. Funny that it's believable though, huh?

[PleadTheFirst]

65. Completely believable

Not a far stretch of the imagination, really.

[elehhhhna]

64. Only in my imagination. Funny that it's believable though, huh?

[Deja Q]

16. Looking like a slut is one thing. Rape is wrong, period. No justification.

At all.

[readmoreoften]

81. A halter and a mini skirt are standard fare for clothing in NYC.

It was also 100+ degrees last week. 90% of the 18 year old girls in NY wear seductive clothes when they go clubbing.

[DemocratSinceBirth]

17. Predators Should Be Punished Severely

Predators should be punished severely and victims should never be blamed, but people need to be aware of putting themselves in dangeous situations.

There's places within ten miles of my home that I wouldn't walk alone at night in.

[Crankie Avalon]

19. Boy this pervert just loves to titillate himself...

...savoring every detail, using this "commentary" of his as some sort of cover for the chance to wallow in his own lust. :puke:

[cookiebird]

34. Notes

for his next badly written book

[CatWoman]

20. would it have made a difference if she was wearing a falafel?

[Mad_Dem_X]

22. Gah, what an a**hole

He wouldn't be saying that sh*t if the woman were someone that he knew, like his wife or sister. :mad:

[MrCoffee]

23. His wife and sister wouldn't wear the halter top/minskirt combo

They wear the burka. modesty, you dig?

[Marie26]

24. Creepy, creepy O'Reilly

He's identifying with the rapist. :scared:

[Oversea Visitor]

25. So when

Man use DICK HEAD as brain it is the woman fault.

What a lame excuse and a shallow mind. :puke:

[Warpy]

26. If a 90 year old nun gets raped

It's because she went out alone to take out the garbage or bring in the mail.

It's because it was a hot day, and she had a window open a crack.

It's because she's a little forgetful, and didn't lock her front door.

This whole blame the victim thing is beyond insulting. When men do it, they excuse rape as a way of keeping women oppressed. When women do it, it's a way of trying to convince themselves that rape isn't a crime of control and violence and that if they're careful, it will never happen to them.

Rape is a crime and rapists are criminals. Anyone like O'Loofah who tries to excuse that fact by blaming brutalized women is beneath comtempt.

[louis-t]

27. Burkas, burkas for everyone.

[MrCoffee]

36. Burka Bill

He wouldn't be able to keep his falafel-covered hands off the ladies if they all wore burkas. The entire Repuke party apparatchik would walk around with chubbies all the time.

Which is why I propose that all DU ladies wear burkas and show up at the RNC nominating convention! that would be hilarious. They'd need that podium to hide the bulge.

[baldguy]

52. Otherwise, they're just ASKING for it!

[Crankie Avalon]

28. An eighteen year old wearing a halter top and mini skirt during summer...

...how dare she!!! :eyes:

[Horse with no Name]

29. So I guess if she was blonde WASP in Aruba

she wouldn't have "deserved it"?
The double standard astounds me.
(I sincerely hope this came out like I intended.)

[Arkansas Granny]

30. If this had happened in Aruba instead of New Jersey, would she

still be a moron?

BOR is a POS! Would he be happier if every young woman wore a burkha? Even that would not protect a woman from rape.

[Radical Activist]

31. Bill is asking for it.

Anyone that obnoxious on a regular basis is just asking for a good ass raping.

[Infomaniac]

57. My eyes! My eyes! Ewwwwh....n/t.

[MrCoffee]

58. Put some kind of warning label on that, for the love of everything holy

You can't blind side people like that. The 8th Amendment should kick in with that pic. Ugh.

[badgerpup]

75. EEEEEK!!!! Who's got the brain bleach and the brillo pads?

I need them next please...my eyes are bleeding and my brain just melted.
:puke: :puke: :puke::puke::puke::puke:

[Gregorian]

32. That's right! Even O'Reilly would be tempted.

And the weird part is, his argument is actually affirmation that it's again the man's fault. Because of that miniskirt, what man wouldn't be tempted to raper her? You know? Obviously O'Reilly sees it that way.

What a dipshit. I cannot believe there is room for goons like him on public airwaves. He is infinitely more offensive than Janet Jackson's breast.

[Janice325]

35. Well, well

Maybe this will get Bill O. "Worst Person in the World" (again!!) on Olbermann's Countdown.
When is Bill gonna just have one big ole meltdown??? Not soon enough for me.
What an asshole.:puke:

[wryter2000]

49. My thought exactly

I can hear Keith O's keyboard keys clicking as we "speak."

[Ganja Ninja]

37. While O'Reilly's criticism borders on the lecherous ...

I have to agree with one thing. An 18 yr old girl thats 5'2", 105 lbs, drunk and alone on the streets a 2:00am is asking for trouble. Of course she doesn't deserve it but she might as well baste herself with steak sauce and jump in a crocodile pit.

[gully]

39. Why didn't the cops know that? She had no choice - her car was towed.

She wasn't being ignorant about anything that many young people aren't ignorant about - drinking and partying before setting out to drive home. The cops were remiss in their duty to "protect and serve" by letting this young kid walk home alone at 2am.

[Ganja Ninja]

43. I don't know the details of the case but if that's true then the cops

negligent and should have arranged for a cab for her and she was a victim of circumstance.

[Marie26]

40. I wouldn't be surprised

if O'Reilly was making up most of the details himself.

[LostinVA]

82. "She was asking for trouble"

By writing that, you are also blaming her... don't you understand that? She didn't "ask" for anything. She was a drunk, scared kid wondering WTF to do.

[gully]

38. And he's calling a rape/murder victim a moron.

If she was stupid - what were the cops who set her loose alone on the street at night?

Makes - my - blood - boil!

[Mandate My Ass]

41. Wow, he even knew her height and weight

and exactly how much flesh was showing. Sounds like loofah man was really only sorry he didn't get to her before the rapist/murderer did. It also sounds like he wishes the scum hadn't used the victim's cell and gotten caught. His hatred of women is appalling.

[Democrat 4 Ever]

46. My lletter to Billo -

I guess you would know what every predator would do with an 18-year old girl at 2 am in the morning - since you have such a sterling (insert massive doses of sarcasm here) in knowing what a predator would do to a female. Got a falafel on ya?

Sir, you need to climb down off of your soap box and get yourself to a rehab facility immediately.

The crime belongs to the rapist and murderer not some young woman. You have raped and murdered this poor woman and her family all over again with your stupid comments.

Everyone in the world knows you hate women (what's matter, along with all of the Fox employees, has your wife cut you off?) but this is a new high in despicable shtick - even for you. By the way, do you have to register as a sex offender? Inquiring minds want to know.

Oh, and one more thing?

OLBERMANN ROCKS - O'LIELLY SUCKS

[Mandate My Ass]

54. good on you

I was also appalled thinking what that poor girl's family would go through if they heard that.

You ripped him up one side and down another. WTG. :applause:

[MrPrax]

42. Hey Bill --

Maybe you can champion "Department for Virtues and Prevention of Vice" patrols for American urban centers.

These guys seem up to the job, Bill

[PleadTheFirst]

44. Jennifer Moore was from the town where I work

Harrington Park NJ is a small town, and although I don't live here, I know a lot of the people here. I never met Jennifer Moore, and never heard her name before this small suburb was infested with FOX new crews looking to get interviews outside the local coffee shop.

FUCK that piece of shit preadatory monster Bill O'Reilly and his ilk. A young girl is dead, and you blame HER?

Good christ, what the fuck is wrong with my country.

[zbdent]

45. So, drunken slut Jenna Bush

is okay to be raped, if she's in New York at 2am?

[jedr]

47. Being stupid isn't punishable by death;

So this girl made some poor choices.....so she deserves to die?????.....Bill has made a few poor choices, should this be his punishment? I'll let him be the decider.

[MrCoffee]

51. Lucky for falafel-boy

that being stupid isn't a capital offense

[Beaverhausen]

48. I hope someone forwarded this to Keith

He'll have a field day with this one.

[RedStateShame]

53. "Bill O'Reilly, Today's Worst Person in the WOOOORRRLD!"

I never get sick of hearing that. That and the term "comedian Rush Limbaugh."

[LynneSin]

50. Perhaps she should have been wearing anti-rape clothes

:sarcasm:

[Johonny]

56. Everyone is stupid

And the thug is so stupid, he uses her cell phone, and the cops trace it back to him and they

To Bill everyone is a moron or stupid. Hey I know another guy that learned the hard way that phone calls can come back to bite them in the...

[BattyDem]

60. What he's really saying is ...

"Every woman who refuses to wear a burka gets what she deserves!" :eyes:

[WinkyDink]

61. Being dead wasn't enough of a punishment, I guess.

The poor girl needs to be ridiculed and blamed.

[AngryOldDem]

62. Go back to your cave, Bill.... n/t

[boolean]

66. Fuck him

I can't stand this fucking gasbag. The sooner his viewers (average age: 71) die, the better.

[progressivebydesign]

67. Her friend got taken to the hospital and Moore got lost..

O'Reilly is a venomous pig. Yes, being stranded in the middle of a city, drunk, and lost, will definitely increase your odds of being attacked (it's something women have to live with, sadly). But to make it sound like it's her fault for being murdered and raped? What a pig. A better use of his oxygen would be to try and understand WHY women cannot go anywhere, do anything, and wear anything, without 1) being at risk 2) being blamed for the actions of others.

A college girl in my old hometown was abducted and killed in a similar scenario. She left a nightclub, drunk, and walked home in high heels, at 2am. The killer also abducted another girl the next day. She was working in an auto parts store, he followed her, staked out her house, and abducted her and killed her, too. She was not... drunk, out at 2am, dressed in nightclub clothes. Do you think that O'Lielly can comprehend that there is no excuse for what happened to any of those girls???

[maveric]

68. Would O'Reilly rape a woman just because she's dressed that way?

Its never the rapists fault,right Bill?
O'Reilly should be flushed down the toilet like other POS's.

[Warren DeMontague]

69. What is this, blame the fucking victim month?

18 year old rape victim. Husband who gets doused with boiling oil...

etc... etc...

Jesus fucking Christ.

[NewJeffCT]

70. I don't care if she was naked & screaming "fuck me"

in the middle of the street. It does not give somebody the right to rape her and/or kill her.

[grannylib]

71. I bet that pervert gets off just thinking about it...even when he's NOT

actual predator.
What a sick fuck.

[blue neen]

72. Blame the victim, blame the victim, blame the victim.

O'Reilly is trying to compensate for his own sick, perverted mind.

[opihimoimoi]

73. Yeah, the nerve of the Perv...blaming the victim....jeeeees

[Danascot]

74. Does O'Leiely have an ALIBI for that night?

Maybe not this case 'cause apparently they have the perp but his obsessions and warped atitudes on women and sex makes me think he's got some skeletons in his closet ... or bodies in his backyard.

[lumpy]

76. O'Reilly should be pulled off the air

for degrading this young woman. He is a filthy beast. Outrageous.

[ismnotwasm]

77. What a disgusting creep

A rapist is going to rape no matter what the condition is or apparel the victim has on. Same with serial or sexual murder.

So is o'reilly thinking the woman would be any less dead or raped in a nuns habit? That there aren't women getting raped every single day in what he evidently considers appropriate attire, in a non-intoxicated state? Every single GODDAMN DAY.

How does explain the those rapes, the ones where a women is minding her own business, maybe just getting off work-- one who had done everything she can think of to ensure her safety, and STILL gets raped, and sometimes murdered? Is it still her fault? For existing? For going to work?

For being a woman? That's what it boils down to, this blame the victim bullshit. It her fault for being female and all the --she should have more responsible, safer, watching over her shoulder every minute, never drink, never leave a drink out of sight, never party, dress like a lady rape apologists can kiss my ass in advance.

God I wish we could take back the night.

I'm sure Mr. Sexual harassment personified ignores rapes where he can't twist it around and blame the victim. Bad for ratings. No one wants to talk about murder/rapes of 50 year olds.

And this idiot finds some dead young women story to spew his personal brand of poisonous bullshit.


Fucking puke.

[NMMNG]

78. How classic--blame the victim.

I suppose fat cats like him should never wear their Rolexes or Armanis if they don't want to be robbed. :eyes:

[helderheid]

83. .
