The veterans I talked to for FOX ATTACKS! "Non-Existent" Veterans are homeless. But for some, including Bill O'Reilly, it seems that these vets are not homeless enough. gregmonk5 Who paid these actors...i mean homeless vets to get the bluetooth head sets, the nice hair cuts, the sharp dresses.... hmmRaziorizzoWhile I am not denying that homeless vets do exist , I noticed , while watching the video, the a couple of people you described as " homeless vet" had a clean shirt and tie on. That just made me wonder.CoachFogg Was that a homeless man with a blue tooth ear piece for his cell phone! Yea he must be poor. what a bunch of BullS%^&.TylerNull Of all their baseless tactics, posing as a homeless vet is one of the NeoLibs most despicable.StankinlincolnNotice how you didn’t see any ‘Homeless’ Veterans in this video? Once ‘Homeless’ yes but not ‘Homeless’. BravewNewFilms is a propagandistTo those who say that these vets are not homeless, I have a question: HOW HOMELESS DO YOU WANT THEM TO BE? Should these men be wearing dirty clothes that stink of urine? Should their faces be grimy, their hair greasy and knotted? Should these vets be mumbling gibberish to invisible voices? Should all of their possessions fit in a shopping cart? Should they be living in tents or, perhaps, under bridges? Then will they be “homeless” enough for you?Do these veterans have too much self-respect for you? Really, how the fuck do you want them to dress? How bad should their personal hygiene be until they satisfy your definition of "homeless"? These vets are trying to get work, make a living, get some education, and have their own place to live, just like you and me. Several of the vets I spoke to were coming from or going to work. They need to dress well and look presentable, just like you do when you’re at work or school or trying to find a job. Then, when they get back to their room at US Vets at the end of the day, they get changed into more comfortable clothes,...

original description

If you were around the FOX building in New York City today, you might’ve noticed that an impromptu press conference had broken out right in front. That’s because a group of veterans tried to deliver our 17,000-strong petition to Bill O’Reilly demanding an apology to homeless vets, and FOX wouldn’t let them in the door.Two weeks ago, after hearing BOR’s second denial of the existence and significance of America’s 200,000 homeless vets, I took a trip to U.S. Vets in Inglewood, CA to see if I could find any of the homeless vets that BOR claimed he couldn’t find. I found them and talked to them. That night, BNF launched a video, FOX ATTACKS! “Non-Existent” Veterans, along with an open letter demanding that O’Reilly apologize for his factually-challenged statements. To date, over 96,000 people have seen the video and over 17,000 signed the letter. So today at 3pm ET, five vets, Carol (executive director of the Fitzgerald House, an organization that provides transitional housing for homeless veterans), documentary filmmaker Dan Lohaus, and field producer Robin went to the FOX building to deliver the petition, along with a reporter from the Daily News and a local TV crew. But it wasn’t so easy. FOX security wouldn’t let the vets in the building. They also wouldn’t accept the petition or promise that it would be given to BOR. The vets couldn’t go up to speak to BOR. BOR wouldn’t come down to speak to them. Some FOX brass came down (accompanied by security and police) to try to defuse the situation, but it didn’t help. MSNBC, whose building is across the street from FOX's, saw all the brouhaha and sent over their own camera crew to cover the action. A press conference broke out right in front of the FOX building as reporters asked the vets questions. Even BOR’s own stalkerazzi “producer”, Jesse Watters, was sent down to assail the vets and change the subject
