EMINEM UPSETS TV HOST O'REILLY WITH NEW SONG & VIDEO

Outspoken U.S. political pundit BILL O'REILLY has started a new war of words with another rapper after taking aim at EMINEM for poking fun at Alaska Governor SARAH PALIN in his new song and video.

The Fox News personality, who reportedly cost Ludacris a longterm deal with soda giants Pepsi over his comments about the rapper's lyrics, has admitted he's not a fan of Eminem's new We Made You hit and promo, which features porn star Lisa Ann as the one-time U.S. Vice President candidate.

Lisa Ann played Palin in 2008 porn spoof Who's Nailin' Paylin (corr) and Eminem thought it would be fun to ask her to reenact the role for his video - but O'Reilly wasn't laughing.

On his O'Reilly Factor show on Wednesday (08Apr09), the host admitted he found the line, "I'll invite Sarah Palin out to dinner, nail her/ Baby, say hello to my little friend" offensive and "crude".

The TV presenter said, "Few Americans take the vile rapper Eminem seriously. He represents the lowest form of entertainment in this country and is a publicity hound to boot.

"Eminem is obviously on an obscene rant about Sarah Palin. It's totally obscene, totally inappropriate. All I want to do is repeat that Eminem means nothing. The video means nothing. It's played for kids that are confused."

O'Reilly said he's surprised women's groups and "left wing" media outlets are not protesting the rapper's new song and video, which also mocks Jessica Simpson, Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan.
