Bill O'Reilly Lied About Calling For The Pepsi Boycott

He (Bill O'Reilly) says "I'm calling for all responsible americans to  
fight back and punish pepsi for using a man who degrades women, who  
encourages substance abuse and does all the things that hurt  
particularly the poor and our society. Then he says, "I'm calling for  
all americans to say, hey, pepsi, i'm not drinking your stuff.

That sounds like calling for a boycott.

Here is exactly what O'Reilly said, right from the transcript of his  
show:

OREILLY: Well, look, just because you think it's in the bottle is off  
doesn't mean i have to accept it as an american consumer so I'm  
calling for all responsible americans to fight back and punish pepsi  
for using a man who degrades women, who encourages substance abuse  
and does all the things that hurt particularly the poor and our  
society. I'm calling for all americans to say, hey, pepsi, i'm not  
drinking your stuff. You want to hang around with Ludacris, you do  
that, I'm not hanging around with you. Am I wrong to do that?

OREILLY: I don't want Ludacris to be banned. I'm not talking about  
that. Let Ludacris be Ludacris, all right? Thank you. Let him do what  
he wants. He's a dumb idiot who's got lucky and exploits the system  
that we have. Fine. Pepsi cola is my problem. Pepsi cola is my  
problem here.

The lie: Bill told an e-mailer that he did not call for a pepsi  
boycott, because he never used the word boycott.
