Media
Pundits Back Away From 9/11 Debate With Sheen
Charlie Sheen's challenge to media pundits to debate him on the issues brought up in his "20 Minutes With The President" letter has not been met after several news outlets expressed interest in taking part but later backed off when it became clear that the discussion would have to be fairly moderated. Bill O'Reilly was the only pundit to express an interest in debating Sheen but all has gone quiet on that front following Sheen's request that the debate be properly presented with each side having equal time. Earlier this month, appearing on The Alex Jones Show, Sheen responded to personal attacks by Meghan McCain, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and Bill O’Reilly, by challenging them all to a debate on neutral ground regarding the unanswered questions surrounding 9/11. Initially, CNN's Larry King Live show was eager to host the debate but could not find anybody whatsoever who would agree to go toe to toe with Sheen. E mails forwarded to us by Sheen indicate that Bill O'Reilly was initially interested and that ABC's Good Morning America was keen to broadcast the debate. However, as soon as Sheen outlined rules that would ensure a fair environment to discuss the issues, O'Reilly and his representatives went cold and backed away from the challenge, according to Sheen. (ARTICLE CONTINUES BELOW) But at least O'Reilly had the courage to respond, unlike every other debunker who attacked Sheen yet skulked away in a cowardly fashion when they were challenged. "We're not naked shouting from the top of a building 'come debate us', we're just issuing a very calm and reasonable offer to just sit down in an open and fair debate forum and hash this thing out," Sheen told The Alex Jones Show yesterday. Sheen characterized O'Reilly's brief interest in the debate as a "nibble" and added that an agreement has not been reached on the terms that were presented to the Fox News host's representatives. Sheen said that the reaction to his challenge was, "Inkeeping with how this very deceptive and dangerous machine operates." "As long as they've got the media under their control then this is the mountain that we must continue to climb," he added. Watch Sheen's appearance on The Alex Jones Show yesterday below. E mails exchanged between Sheen, his representative, and Bill O'Reilly's representative are reprinted at the end.
-------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Charlie Sheen I'll agree to BO on his turf if the following rules
are agreed upon: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Mitchell, Ron Good Morning America would love to do this. Seems
like completely neutral ground. Please let me know ASAP, and we will
start to make plans. From: Stan Rosenfield OK -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Mitchell, Ron Let me come up with some ideas. I don’t think
that going on CNN would necessarily be an option, though! (Sheen’s
idea on that radio show) From: Stan Rosenfield Ron, l have spoken again with Charlie and has definite interest in speaking publically with Bill regarding 9-11. Although he has no problem in discussing this with Bill, we would prefer to do this on neutral turf. Let me know your thoughts. Stan |
