Check out this hilarious video of Bill O’Reilly flipping out at his teleprompter. The video, which has been making the rounds on the internet, is absolutely classic and should put to rest any who doubt O’Reilly’s douche-ness.
After the jump, check out Colbert’s even funnier spoof of the meltdown.
Acclaimed UK musician Tricky, known for both his solo work and his collaborations with legendary trip-hop crew Massive Attack, says hip-hop is to blame for Britain’s “gun and knife culture.” In an interview with Uncut, the 40-year-old lamented hip-hop’s negative influence, saying ”the music fuels violence and is in part to blame for the rising levels of crime in [...]
