Bill O'Reilly: Jennifer Aniston Is 'Destructive to Society'

By PopEater Staff Posted Aug 11th 2010 07:20AM

While promoting her movie 'The Switch' earlier this week, Jennifer Aniston told reporters that women don't need men to start a family or be good mothers. When Bill O'Reilly caught wind of her statement, he debated the topic of single motherhood on 'The O'Reilly Factor' and called out the 41-year-old actress. "She's throwing a message out to 12-year-olds and 13-year-olds that, 'Hey you don't need a guy. You don't need a dad.' That is destructive to our society," O'Reilly railed.

FOX News contributor Margaret Hoover and FOX News anchor Gretchen Carlson debated the topic with O'Reilly, admitting young teens wouldn't be able to comprehend the vast differences between a 40-year-old woman and a teenager raising a child as a single mother. "She is glamorizing single parenthood," Carlson said.

In 'Switch,' Aniston plays a woman who elects to take on life as a single parent through artificial insemination. During the movie's press conference in LA, the actress admitted "times have changed" and women don't need to rely on men to be good mothers.

"Women are realizing more and more that you don't have to settle, they don't have to fiddle with a man to have that child," Aniston said. "They are realizing if it's that time in their life and they want this part they can do it with or without that."

O'Reilly called out the actress, deeming her message inappropriate. "Jennifer Aniston can hire a battery of people to help her. But she can't hire a dad. Dads bring a psychology to children that in this society is under emphasized. Men get hosed all day long in the parental arena," he ranted.

"Any man who leaves their children is not a man. Let's make that perfectly clear. But the fathers that do try hard are under appreciated and diminished by people like Jennifer Aniston," he continued.

Finally, O'Reilly challenged Aniston to come on his show and defend her statement. "If she wants to explain, she can get her butt right in here."

What teenager embraces Jennifer Annison? Matter of fact, what teen even knows who Bill O'Nasty is?

By JOE

Educated and inform teens know who he is. As far as she is concerned, well, she's an idiot.

By themeeker

BillO calling someone else destructive? That's rich.

Here's a big azzhole with no self awareness like the rest of FUX TV.

The educated teens would know him.The dim witts would know friends Jenn.

By Dawn

She is a moron. As a single mom who struggled by herself to raise a little girl, I can tell you that fathers are needed and appreciated. I watch the differences with my nieces who not only have a dad, but a devoted one (and men out there, there is a difference) and I can't help but feel envious. Jennifer Aniston needs to stick with what she knows, being vain and shallow. Please do not speak to our teenage daughters lady!!!!

So, Bill, what are your words for Bristol Palin?

By benicio

Bill O'Reilly is far from nasty...he tells it like it is & says stuff people are AFRAID to say in this day & age because of Hollywood liberals crying to the ACLU for every little piss-ant statement. I'm so glad that there are people like Bill, Glenn Beck & Rush cause they are speaking for a lot of us who agree.

It's stupid tabloid journalism, just like this opinionated article, that made me take Fox News off my channel line up long ago.

As long as Bill O'Reilly refrains from reproducing... All is good with the world!

By Andy

Her movie "Switch" was originally titled "The Turkey Baster". Now what kind of crowd do you think it is geared towards?

By Yasmin

“She’s throwing a message out to 12-year-olds and 13-year-olds”. Really? Do these 12 and 13 year kids have parents to tell them not to listen to celebrities? If kids turn out stupid, how about blaming the parent(s) and not dumb celebrities that have diarrhea of the mouth in their interviews. Celebrities are not teachers, they entertain. No need to hold them up on a pedestal where they do not belong.

By jimmy

jennifer is just saying this because she cant find a man to stay with

By jandi

she didn't mean it the way Bill interpretted it. she'll probably give a statement to fix things. she just wants a baby and is realizing that the clock is ticking.

By Nikki

Love it~~~You are so right!!! As for teens, if their parents bring them up properly we won't have to worry about teens getting pregnant!!! I look forward to seeing the movie!!! It's about (Jennifer in fact) women who want a child and not a husband!!!

By Stone

It is so obvious that most celebrities are so out of touch. Most of their relationships and/or marriages dont work and they run from man to man and from woman to woman; and most of their lives is filled with kaos. its no wonder that they dont have a clue.

By gary ryan

obviously a liberal ah

By Carla

I do and so does all my friends..just because you think you are a progressive that doesnt make it right to destroy our morals...

By Mr. Leo

Lets run down her case:

1. This is the woman who let Brad Pitt get away.
2. Her rebound guy was Vince Vaughn????(oh no).
3. She was charmed by super dimwit John Mayer, after which he then dogged her HARD. She is used-up goods now and a man hater for sure. Do not follow her example girls.

By BJ Molawka

Bill, Bill, Bill.........I am certain Jen didn't mean "teenagers" when saying you don't need a "man".......teens guys are ""guys"....or "boyfriends", not MEN. Cut her some slack. Do you really think she'd say: "Go teens, do it"......
