Listen to how Bill O'Reilly argues with people he doesn't agree with. Instead of responding to this guy's points (the son of a man killed in 9-11, and who is critical of Bush's push for war in Iraq) with facts, he just yells at the guy to shut up and then pulls his mic. [Boing Boing Blog]
Let's generalize a bit. Tactics used in debates by Right Wing fanatics and dittoheads: (1) Lie, (2) Interrupt when someone tries to correct you, (3) Change the subject, and (4) If you control the microphone, take it away from your opponents. This isn't just true of the famous talk show hosts; I learned these tactics in barroom discussions.
