DINNER DATE I WISH I'D BEEN INVITED TO. In which Bill O'Reilly learns that black people eat in restaurants, too. Via Media Matters, we learn that O'Reilly recently dined with Al Sharpton at Sylvia's in Harlem, and reported back: "I couldn't get over the fact that there was no difference between Sylvia's restaurant and any other restaurant in New York City. I mean, it was exactly the same, even though it's run by blacks, primarily black patronship." O'Reilly's raging bigotry aside (or, at least the raging bigot persona he affects in his television show), I wonder what he and Sharpton talked about?
