From the February 5 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor:

ERIC BOLLING: It was blowing my mind that Hillary Clinton, who spent the last 25 or 30 years using Wall Street as an ATM to finance her various campaigns is trying to tell Bernie Sanders and the American people that she can't stand Wall Street. Here are the numbers. $21 million Wall Street has donated to her election -- to the current campaign. $44 million over the course of the last 25 years--

GERALDO RIVERA: This is the artful smear. 

BOLLING: Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, JP Morgan, Wells Fargo, they've all donated to the Clinton Foundation--

[...]

RIVERA: That is what she has labeled, correctly, the artful smear. Why? It is not a question -- I don't deny that this candidate has taken hundreds of thousands of dollars in very lucrative speaking fees from the likes of Goldman Sachs, but people like you cannot point to one example of where she has rolled over for Wall Street. Give me one example. 

BOLLING: Okay. Fair enough. 

RIVERA: Was it pay for play? Was it pay for play?
