For purported facts on Zarqawi, O'Reilly trusts Stephen Hayes, who "stands behind his reporting," though the Senate Intelligence Committee disputes that "reporting"

SUMMARY: When a guest on The O'Reilly Factor questioned Bill O'Reilly's assertion that a hospital that treated a wounded Abu Musab al-Zarqawi was "run by Uday Hussein," O'Reilly replied: "No, that's Stephen Hayes, and he stands behind his reporting, although he did make a mistake. ... He said that Zarqawi's leg was amputated, and it wasn't."
