Another Former Colleague Refutes Bill O’Reilly’s ‘Absurd’ Falklands War Stories

Evidence is starting to pile up that Bill O’Reilly embellished his “war reporting” chops.

Left-leaning magazine Mother Jones documented Thursday a number of alleged inaccuracies in the Fox News host’s accounts of covering the Falklands War. Over the weekend, a former colleague of O’Reilly’s, retired CBS correspondent Eric Engberg, backed up Mother Jones’ report, saying O’Reilly had fabricated and exaggerated portions of his story.

“The only danger that we were in was we were staying at the Sheraton Hotel, which was this massive, modern tower overlooking the city,” he said. “We were in no danger whatsoever.”
