He’s also adding the number of people who said that “it can’t be shut down, but could be condemned by Frohnmayer” to the number of people who said “fire Frohnmayer,” and calling that 60% of people who support his position. The problem with this is it misrepresents the response to the poll, which is not scientific or representative anyway.

Talking Points Memo
A miracle in Oregon?
“Earlier this week I said I was praying for a miracle that one American newspaper would take my side in the University of Oregon controversy, where a radical student publication printed vile illustrations of Jesus. That hate speech violates academic standards, in my opinion, and the publication should be denied college funding. I also said university President Dave Frohnmayer should be fired for poor judgment and lax leadership. I didn’t get the miracle I asked for, but something even more miraculous has happened. In a poll sponsored by the student newspaper, 38% said ‘Bill O’Reilly is right, fire Frohnmayer.’ And 22% said the paper should be condemned. So 60% of those who voted understand that hate speech is irresponsible. The Jesus pictures are clearly obscene and designed to injure Christians. Nobody in their right mind thinks the University of Oregon would allow a KKK student-run newspaper to receive student funding, but they will kick $20,000 a year to a Marxist anti-Christian hate sheet. That’s unacceptable at a publicly funded university. Alumni should stand up the way students have and withhold donations until something is done. This whole thing is miraculous to me - the students are much smarter than the faculty, and much braver as well.”
