Bill O'Reilly and Jennifer Aniston
Bill O'Reilly and Jennifer Aniston


We're not kidding. The Fox News anchor is slamming Aniston, 41, for saying that women don't need men to have kids.

'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,' he ranted on his FOX News show this week. 'That is destructive to our society.'

O'Reilly failed to elaborate if he meant conception or fatherhood, but in either case he saw no room for debate.

Fox News anchor Gretchen Carlson also chimed in, 'She is glamorizing single parenthood.'

Apparently we wouldn't want to ever celebrate that. The more appropriate response may be to feel ashamed. OK then.

In her latest romantic comedy 'The Switch' (which arrives on August 20), Aniston plays Kassie, a single woman seeking a sperm donor.

At a weekend press conference, the single actress told reporters: 'Women are realizing it more and more knowing that they don't have to settle with a man just to have that child. Times have changed and that is also what is amazing is that we do have so many options these days, as opposed to our parents' days when you can't have children because you have waited too long.'

When she's not destroying society Aniston is currently rumored to be dating Saturday Night Live star Jason Sudeikis.

Big deal - Bill isn't exactly father type material, but Jen certainly has some "O" factor hotness. Candace Bergen said the same stuff back in the 90's when she was playing "Murphy Brown" and it started all kinds of debate. Dan Quale, vice president at the time, became a media ass hat (more so than he was already) for chiming in on this one. Usually traditional families are great and some studies have been done that show kids benefit from having both a mom and dad at home, but enough studies have been done, and incedence have occured that show just because a man is present, doesn't mean it's going to be an idealic home for children.

to jaynetelane: the answer is that God gave eachof us free will and you exercised yours. God may have willed you to make this decision because He may have known that youa lone would love this child.

On 4/18/1982 while pursuing a film career in Hollywood, I became a Born-again Christian which was and remains the best decision of my life. I was age 33, the same age as my Lord & Savior when He began His ministry. Yet unlike Him, I had every hope of being married and having my own natural children. But evidently He had other plans for me that did not include marriage but did include motherhood. When I was 44, He brought into my life a very damaged four year old child that nobody wanted except me. My son is now 22 years old and I raised him without a man in my life other than the men at my church who mentored him. At age 60, He brought another damaged four year old into my life. My daughter is now six and I am still single. Is this how I thought my life would go? No! I wanted my own husband and natural children. So, my question is, if Father God only wants women with husbands to have children, then how do you explain my situation? If I had said no to these two precious children God has given me, I would have missed out on the tremendous blessings I have received from being their mother. Has it been easy for me to raise children alone? No, it has not and I certainly do not have the finances movie stars have, but God has always provided. My son tells me all the time that I saved his life.

The single mom in America has the government as the father to these children.

Maybe a woman doesn't need a man to have a child. But she sure as hell needs one to bring him/her up. Stats prove it.

What idiosy is this--there is nothing wrong with being a single parent, nor is there anything wrong with a couple parenting their children and in both cases ONLY IF both parents are truly committed to doing what is best for the child--is Bill Idiot condemning Halle Berry too? What Anniston said is that women have options if they don't find the guy, they are not condemned to a life without a child--with all the kids in the world,who need a loving h9me with or without a parent (meaning single parent), she has a point--they would be only to happy to have a mom who'd love them and provide.

It takes two to raise a 'Balanced' child--A Reliable Dad and a Responsible Mom. Look at the shape the World is in with our Divorce rates, absent fathers and unreliable Mothers. Sorry for the World in general. Confusion, unhappiness and unrealized potential for us as a Society. Loving and Devoted Parents are a Rarity nowadays. What a Shame.

The problem is to define if JA is just "ditzy" or just plain evil. Otherwise, all of the problems with the pedophile priestsin Ireland can be viewed as just a "civil liberties" issue which can be legislated into reality. JA is being called to task for being severely irresponsible. Isn't that what the show "Friends" was really all about, being irresponsible and thinking that it was funny?

I am sad for those who think men are irrelevant when having and raising a child.
