Bill O’Reilly is dumb and despicable. Donahue will be remembered as an honest compassionate grown up who had integrity and courage. The hope for our country to rise up and do what needs to be done rests with the younger generations of people who hopefully will themselves become as strong and organized and passionate about justice as you have been and still are. My generation is too old and for the most part too steeped in the past to do much to stop the collapse. Organizing and persistence requires energy and strength. Thank you for all you have done day after day to help us all to wake up. 💡
It's remarkable how few mainstream media figures challenged the WMD-lie, bipartisan line when it was so obvious, and such an obvious stance to take given the abundantly available evidence at the time. Phil Donahue bravely bucked that trend, a canary in the corporate media coal mine.
Yes Phil Donahue was truly special. Thank you cindy for this compilation. We can only hope the psychopathic, ignorant, arrogant nutjobs in DC don't destroy the entire world as they seem determined to do. I still haven't figured out for what exactly?
Donahue on O’Reilly brings back memories. When September 11th happened I was a sophomore in high school. We spent the day watching Peter Jennings’ coverage on ABC News. When I got home for the first time I was interested in the news and happened to come across O’Reilly’s program and liked it. I became an avid watcher for the next seven years or so and during that time O’Reilly’s analysis of events became my own.
I remember watching this interview and his coverage of you and your protests and I thought you were nuts. I thought you didn’t understand your own son’s sacrifice for the country. I thought you wanted the terrorists to win. I sided with O’Reilly in this interview hook, line and sinker. Looking back I can see the effectiveness of the war propaganda during that time and how it had captured my thoughts and thinking. I also believed in “freedom fries” and that we were bringing democracy to Iraq. To question the righteousness of the war effort was to be a sympathizer with terror.
Interestingly, it was a guest that O’Reilly would later have on his show from time to time, Michael Scheuer the former head of the CIA’s Bin Laden unit that helped break the spell of the propaganda for me. Watching back this interview for the first time since I saw it live I’m reminded that the propaganda then used to justify the Iraq war is the same used now for Ukraine.
I would like to apologize to you Cindy for believing those things about you in my younger years. I appreciate now the courage that it took to take a stand at the time you did when the propaganda in favor of war was at its strongest.
Traitor Taters is great. Those fuckers didn’t know or care that they did the same thing in WWI with “liberty cabbage” to replace.sauerkraut. I’m just surprised the Russian mocking didn’t get that far with this “unprovoked” Ukraine situation.
That was nice of him; I wonder if that's why people carrying guns with them don't tend to get into arguments like that ; on any other other occasion I would just turn it off.
RIP, Phil Donahue. They don't make TV personalities like that anymore. He was a rare gem.
(And wow, what a slimeball Bill O'Liar is!)

RIP Phil Donahue. he, like you, faced off against so much malevolent sewage.

Thanks, Greg!
Bravo, it always good to read a person who has actually exercised their ability at rational thought and broke away from dogma. Very nice !
Back when they started that "freedom fries" nonsense, I coined my own, more appropriate ( in its' absurdity) phrase: "Traitor Taters".
Traitor Taters is great. Those fuckers didn’t know or care that they did the same thing in WWI with “liberty cabbage” to replace.sauerkraut. I’m just surprised the Russian mocking didn’t get that far with this “unprovoked” Ukraine situation.
Wonderful. Thank you for sharing. You are one tough mom, indeed.
Are you sure Donahue received the medal from Biden in person? I don't think he attended. He probably wasn't well.
Yes. I saw photos. Phil was in a wheelchair
Love you, Cindy. Always.
Donahue had several shows warning about vaccine side effects:

Tthey ALL pale in comparison to Phil Donahue.
That didn't age well for Bill. He bought all that bullshit hook, line, and sinker. Good on Phil for putting him in his place

Ahh, do not cross the Delilah's dressing up in Palestinian Women's clothing.
Recall, the September 11 and Neo-Jewish-Conservatives ruling the roost, and who the fuck owns the media?
Phil, amazing.

Richard got popped at Heathrow. That's another story not covered by the mauling mass mainlining media.

Would Phil be having on any Inbred UnUnited Queendomers on his show if he had one and was, well, alive?
Who the hell caused those "riots"?
