Fox News talk show host Bill O’Reilly has ruthlessly criticized RT for its interview with former anti-war activist Bill Ayers last week, which has subsequently thrust the US media’s bias to the fore.

Anna, you don't need to defend yourself against a Bill O'Reilly Attack. He attacks everyone and Fox News is just catering to a "Right" of American politics which the whole thing Republican, Democrat is a scam. People then are polarized on either MSNBC or FOX, but it is all entertainment and not really journalism. RT should continue interviewing everyone on both sides of political issues and ignore childish games they play. If any American actually believes Anna doesn't speak English, their own intelligence levels are so low, it is beyond help. So don't answer their childish games. I think RT is above them.

There could hardly be a more reliable indicator that RT presents valuable news coverage than that it has brought up the ire of Fox (should be spelled Faux) "News."

Most of British and U.S main stream media are own by corporation which have strong links to the government. Unfortunately this means that news is censored and by doing so, defeat the object in broadcasting real news openly to the public. Most of RT news is uncensored and by doing so, exposes a great deal of controversy which often focuses to western governments. I've watched some of RT's broadcasts and some do cover some sensitive news which I know the media in the US and certainly in the UK would not even think about covering. The swine flue virus and the truth about the 9/11 attacks is only but one of the news I've watched on RT and in one particular Dutch news broadcaster. Conclusion is that Fox news and O'Reilly are not there to serve the need of the public.

I would like you to include in those useless medias, all the french medias (radios, televisions, newspapers and editions). The Canard-Enchainé could be the only one, not controled by the Neuilly-sur-Seine's mafia... Best Regards. Jean-Claude Meslin

Not many people over here think very highly of Fox news. Most people I know, turn up their noses in disgust.

Look I'm from the U.S. I have been trying to follow developments in global warming. I discovered RT by accident while trying to find information about the voices opposed to the theory of global warming - very hard to do when most media institutions, including the BBC, make it appear there is no real opposition to the theory. On this topic I believe RT has done a much better job then CNN, ABC, NBC and the New York Times in your reports. You have gone out, let primary people in the controversy discuss the topic. Now I consider you a very good addition to my online news day. Your reporters are intelligent, they ask questions with clarity and deserve respect as journalists. O'Reilly and other commentators are not reporters - they promote a political spin where truth is less important then making jokes and scoring points with their supporters. Talking with controversial people about their ideas is part of what journalism is suppose to be. Reporters like Anna deserve respect - and she speaks English much better then many people I know.

I wouldn't be bothered about what Mr. O'Reilly thinks; as he would say, he is a 'pinhead'.

I can't stop laughing. And I had to write this up: http://www.newscorpse.com/ncWP/?p=1503 O'Reilly watched this interview of Ayers but didn't recognize the language Churkina was speaking? Obviously O'Reilly speaks some twisted version of English that only he and his demented viewers understand. Thanks for the entertainment, and for providing a measure of journalism that O'Reilly never will.

Few times repeated lie is as good as a truth. The Jew control US propaganda machine knows this and they are using it consistently to misinform America, just like Hitler did when he was financed to power.

Fox News and it's puppet Bill O'Reilly is a symbol of American media , media filled with lies and propagandism. O'Reilly is an example of how low a human being would go for few more pennies. Shame on you O'Reilly!

Are there any major news {ENTERTAINMENT} networks that are not owned by billionaires? You get the same old garbage out of all the, so called, news networks whether they are CNN, BBC, FOX, NBC, ABC and on through the alphabet. This is not conducive to a free society or democracy. The MONEY MONGERS have reduced them all to low life entertainment and commercials. Money has become more inportant than their loyalty to their profession and their country. How pathetic. They are all sick.

O'Reilly is an idiot. Most thinking Americans know that and don't watch Fox. Even for fun of seeing a wacky guy. Keep up the good work, RT! Happy Holiday and healthy and successful 2010!

Walter Cronkite, David Brinkley, Chet Huntley...where have all the flowers gone, long time passing? Veritably, there's but one step from the sublime to the ridiculous (profane). The Russian reporter's articulation, choice of words, or syntax may not conform to the standard American employed by her US counterparts, but she's not a native speaker. On the other hand, today only a benighted person would spend any amount of time watching TV as a medium of enlightenment. I strongly recommend such trusted occupation as reading. I'd say this, though for the Orally man, he was OK slamming the Happy Holiday politically correct effete snobs in favor of Merry Christmas. Of course, there's no depth there, but he's somewhat better than Neanderthal Hannity. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

As an American, I can say that the large majority of Americans think O'Reilly and Fox are biased, untrustworthy, and downright annoying. Fox (& O'Reilly) get their main demographic from the less educated rural population, suburban republicans, and military families. Most Americans realize that O'Reilly is just a belligerent puppet who out-yells his opponents on world TV. Oddly enough, when Sarah Palin, O'Reilly's even dumber female counterpart - who thought Africa is a country - appeared on the show, O'Reilly was as gentle as a kitten. His version of "no spin" is clearly yelling at opponents and not letting them speak, while his allies get to be as verbose as they please on his show. Quite honestly, even though most Americans acknowledge Fox and O'Reilly for the propaganda-mills that they are, the fact that some people actually believe them makes me a bit ashamed to be an American. I really can't wait until I can get my one-way ticket back to Moskva.
