… In a clip from PoliticsNation, Sharpton accused O’Reilly of “attacking the poor” and calling them “parasites,” a word the host did use in his original piece.
“Sharpton obviously taking my comments totally out of context,” O’Reilly said, before dropping “the crusher” on his MSNBC rival. “He’s been portraying me as a racist and a ‘brutalizer’ of the poor,” O’Reilly said, before revealing that a few years ago Sharpton came to him asking for money for his charity in Harlem so that it could “provide Christmas presents and Christmas dinners to hundreds of poor people.”
O’Reilly said he donated $25,000 to Sharpton’s charity for the gifts and food. “I never mentioned it,” he said, “because it wasn’t necessary to mention it. But now it is. To prove exactly what kind of person Sharpton is.”
