O’Reilly said his team looked into the birther story last year and “found out it’s bogus.”

O’Reilly: “If you’re going to ask for the firing of every irresponsible commentator in the country…”

Cohen: “Except for you Bill…”

O’Reilly: “…look, anyone can be fired. What I’m telling you is it never ends…the marketplace takes care of it. Lou Dobbs’ ratings are not very good. CNN is having a very, very hard time.”
