Bill O'Reilly Tells Donald Trump He Need A Fact Checker

Bill O'Reilly thinks Donald Trump needs a fact checker.

O'Reilly said critics eager to paint Trump as a racist would cite the fake crime statistics as evidence.

"Oh, c'mon! Radio shows?" the Fox News host rhetorically asked.

Trump quickly distanced himself from the Sunday tweet, which he has yet to delete from his account.

Trump the graphic from the Twitter user @SeanSean252, whose Twitter bio doesn't list him as an expert in anything in particular, though it does note, "If you are not Conservative?" O'Reilly shot back. Trump has had multiple other retweets that generated controversy, including one that featured Nazi imagery. "I know it might not be politically correct for you to talk about it, but there were people cheering as that building came down - as those buildings came down".

"Yeah, yeah", O'Reilly replied, "but why do you even want to be in that zone?" I look out for every honest politician, I don't care what party they are in. Don't do this. Don't put your name on stuff like this. The figures Trump retweeted inaccurately stated that 81% of white homicide victims are killed by blacks. "This was a retweet. Yet you tweeted it was 81%".

Trump made it clear he takes no responsibility for the accuracy of information he broadcasts to his 5 million followers.

The two proceeded to talk over each other.

"This bothered me, I gotta tell you", O'Reilly tells Trump in the clip. You know what? Fine. Trump asked O'Reilly, adding that "this came out of radio shows and everything else". "All it was was a retweet".
