SUMMARY: On MSNBC's Countdown, Iraq War veteran Paul Rieckhoff, executive director of the Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America (IAVA), joined Olbermann in demanding an apology from Fox News host Bill O'Reilly for falsely accusing American troops of massacring German soldiers at Malmédy, Belgium, during World War II. Rieckhoff said in an interview with Olbermann, "I think he needs to issue an apology. We all ask that, all the veterans of our country ask that, and I think it's the responsible thing to do."
