Bill O'Reilly Defends Ellen DeGeneres, JC Penney Against Conservative "Witch Hunt"

by at .

It's a witch hunt.

That's what Bill O'Reilly has to say about the movement by One Million Moms - a conservative organization, from which no member agreed to appear on Fox News last night - to pressure JC Penney into firing its new spokesperson, Ellen DeGeneres.

The group takes issue with Ellen being an openly gay celebrity, as O'Reilly Factor guest Sandy Rios defended its actions by saying "people that believe marriage is between a man and woman and children should not be exposed to propagandized homosexuality."

O'Reilly response? That's fine. Don't shop at JC Penney then. But to actively push for a private company to fire an American citizen based on her lifestyle? That's just wrong. It's McCarthyism. Watch the segment below and then express your opinion:

Should JC Penney fire Ellen DeGeneres?

    All we are missing on this thread is TJONES.. lmao Neways Bill did good for once. Come on ppl you cant try to get a person fired who didnt do shit. Hell if we could fire ppl for all the shit they do off the clock noone would have jobs even the million moms. And is that a rip off from the million man march? Sounds like it! lol They are very dumb to think they would get their way and not come off as a bunch of insane harpies. Next time, set your sights on someone who actually did something.

    Congrats Bill. I am really surprised but yet happy that you have taken the stand you have on this. So what if she is a lesbian. So what if she has married her partner. Ellen has done nothing but good with her fame and should not be condemned nor should JCP for her private life.

    I finally found where this originated. Imagine my surprise when on the Santorum victory having someone calling me Reed's b*tch. I see you made a friend. That's all I'm saying for now.
