Letterman to O'Reilly: 'You bonehead'

Funnyman David Letterman went after Fox News talk show host Bill O'Reilly on Friday. Who knows why O'Reilly went back on Letterman's "Late Show." The last time O'Reilly showed up on Letterman's turf, the host accused O'Reilly of spewing crap 60% of the time. This time O'Reilly came out with a plastic shield. It didn't help.

They sparred a bit and at one point, O'Reilly accused Letterman of "putting words in my mouth." Letterman responded: "You're putting artificial facts in your head."

Here's the Associated Press' news report on Friday night's confrontation.

Before O'Reilly appeared, Letterman told the audience that he hoped he would have a chance to call O'Reilly a bonehead. Of course, he did.
