O’Reilly: & Newsweek magazine, by a way, has legitimized him by giving him a columnist position. I talked to a editor by email, & I said I can’t believe that you’re — that’s like hiring David Duke. Again, I use Duke too much, but I have to — a level of hatred coming out of that website is unprecedented. Isn’t it?

Markos responds here with some friendly & hate-free emails he got from O’Reilly viewers.

C&L’er Bill W writes:

Somehow Newsweek shouldn’t have hired Kos because of what oar people say in a comments or post in air user blogs, but of course he’s okay with air hiring Rove who has been involved in sc&al after sc&al. Who’s more like David Duke? Kos, or a guy behind a robocalls that said McCain had an illegitimate black child? I’m just sayin’.
