Hollywood star: Who voted for Bill O'Reilly?

Courtesy DC Media Girl, here's an interview with George Clooney. The debonair filmmaker, whose new film on the Murrow-McCarthy confrontation suggests he has political attitudes, took the opportunity to respond to an attack from right-wing foamer Bill O'Reilly, but resisted comparing him to red-hunter McCarthy.

"No one ever elected O'Reilly to an office," he says. "He's never had our vote or our proxy to use against us... Plus, the media is so fractured these days that nobody can hurt you like they did years ago because nobody has as big an audience. There used to be three networks. Now there's hundreds and hundreds.

"Besides," he adds, unable to resist a tweak, "I don't believe McCarthy was ever accused in a deposition of telling a female employee she should use a vibrator."

I'll leave you with that image.
