Context

So, here's what Bill-O said:

"I couldn't get over the fact that there was no difference between Sylvia's restaurant and any other restaurant in New York City. I mean, it was exactly the same, even though it's run by blacks, primarily black patronship. There wasn't one person in Sylvia's who was screaming 'M-Fer -- I want more iced tea."

When Media Matters posted the clip on their website O'Reilly accused Media Matters of taking his quotes out of context. Which lead to many stories on the subject. Bill-O currently maintains the position that if you listen to his entire broadcast hour it puts the quote in context.

Bill-O is certainly good at his job.
