Friend: Angelina Would Back Jen in Bill-O Battle

By Rob Shuter Posted Aug 11th 2010 11:44PM

Jennifer Aniston has a friend in Angelina Jolie when it comes to her war of words with FOX News host Bill O'Reilly, who shocked many Tuesday night by calling the actress "destructive to society" for saying women don't need men to be good mothers, a friend of Mrs. Pitt tells me.

"Angie would totally defend Jennifer on this," the friend says. "She agrees with Jennifer that a woman doesn't need a man to start a family to be a good mother. For Bill to take issue with this statement is him taking issue with every single parent in the world."

Jolie's mother, Marcheline Bertrand, raised Angie after her famous father, Jon Voight, left them for another woman. Plus, Angie adopted her first son, Maddox, when she was single, long before Brad came into the picture.

Relationship expert Matt Titus agrees, telling me, "Bill O' Reilly, the crotchety FOX blowhard, couldn't be more out of touch with the modern definition of a nuclear family. Very often, 'the non-committal' attitude of the modern male leaves the modern woman with no choice but to seek out positive and 'non-traditional' alternatives of creating families. Women do not need to wait for the perfect guy to have the perfect child."

Critics have already jumped in to argue that while O'Reilly's way of thinking is bunk and out of touch, he also miscalculates Aniston's influence on teens and young women.

"I don't think 12 or 13 year-olds are paying attention to what Jennifer Aniston says or even know who she is, for that matter," Beth Feldman, founder of RoleMommy.com, tells me. "If Demi Lovato or Miranda Cosgrove started tossing around comments about single motherhood, we would all have something to worry about. Jen's message is meant for thirty- and forty-something women who haven't yet met the love of their life -- and she's right on target."

O'Reilly challenged Jennifer to be a guest on his show to defend her statement, however, sources tell me that isn't going to happen. But if Bill has paved the way for Jennifer and Angelina to agree on something, it would be foolish to deny the power of Bill.

anything this man won't do to get attention? I guess Angie would back her, maybe it's guilt for her obvious affair with Brad while him and Jen were together.

You are just plain mean. He is a man and he makes her happy. She makes him happy. They would go their each and own ways if not.
Get a life and stop being ugly about others. You are just jealous.

Bill's just a desperately tired joke and can't be taken seriously.

By Logan

Hey Bill-O tell us about morality. Tell us how a rape and murder victim is responsible for her rape and murder as you did on your show. Tell us how a kid molested for over a year enjoyed it because he didn't have to go to school and play video games, like you did on your show. Tell us about being charged and sued for sexual harrasment where you had to settle out of court for millions. Tell us about morality, better yet Bill-O don't. No matter if these people like you or not I am willing to wager they haven't done any of things you've done and don't need your advice.

First off he did not accuse Jennifer Aniston of being destructive to society. He said the things that she said can be. Unless you happen to think that the family stucture, as in mother, father, and children, is some sort of archaic social anomoly, then O'Reilly makes a valid point.

By Dlg

The word is anomaly and yes, the idea of a family as mom, dad and kids is an anomaly and so, by the way, is that right wing, moron O"Reilly!!! There are thousands of women who are raising children on their own either by choice or more often, not by choice. Instead of criticizing them, we should be supporting them.

Jen is still reeling from Brad, and now she's 40.

By gwen

SKANK !!!

Has Bill O'Reilly called out Newt Gingrich for his marital cheating on 2 of his wife's? Naw, Newt is a friend of Fox News and Bill is being "fair and balanced" in not hammering Newt. Didn't Newt lead the moral charge against Bill Clinton, while cheating on his wife. O'Reilly is the biggest phoney going!

You're right. And what about Bristol Palin?

Bill and his big mouth make me p u k e.

By Bob

O Reilly ......my opinion of you will never change....I think your a bully, opportunist, etc etc...to sum it up....I think your a Jerk.... Fox News is disgusting and Hannity is a low life.... etc etc...

Mine has been on umemployment for over a year and he is not even looking for a job, but I managed to find 2 jobs

I am 41 and was not supposed to be able to get pregnant. However, at age 40 I received a wonderful surprise. My ex-boyfriend and I were together for four years prior to my pregnancy. My ex loves the baby, but is very irresponsible. I do everything for my baby. I am that takes care of him day in-and-out, I pay for everything the baby needs from food to health insurance, I have planned for his future needs should anything happen to me. No, a child does not have to have a father to grow up well. It is desirable, which is why I am doing everything I can to make sure that my baby's father is in his life. However, a child can grow up very well with a loving single parent.
