O'Reilly threatens caller for mentioning another talk show. What's next?

Last week, Bill O'Reilly threatened to turn over the personal information of a caller on his nationally syndicated radio show to "Fox security" because the caller mentioned MSNBC's Keith Olbermann. O'Reilly indicated that Fox security would pay a "little visit" to the caller and, in fact, Fox security reportedly did contact the caller via telephone.

So, it has come to this: O'Reilly is now threatening to call security when he disagrees with callers.

You can listen to the clip here, and you can send it to your friends here.

Help spread the word about O'Reilly's attempted intimidation of callers.
