Bill O'Really, Plagiarist or Jerk? Lloyd Grove reports, you decide.
(re: Statue of Liberty charity fund)

Whose byline is it, anyway?

Fox News star Bill O'Reilly hasn't made a friend of amNewYork's Alex Storozynski.

Storozynski, editor of the recently launched free daily, is accusing the host of the Fox News Channel's top-rated "The O'Reilly Factor" of televised plagiarism.

"You ran the piece without mentioning amNewYork, instead taking credit for the story yourself," Storozynski, a former member of the Daily News editorial board, wrote angrily. He claimed O'Reilly ripped off his Feb. 2 exclusive, which reported that although the fund was raising $40 million a year, officials were using the money for minor maintenance instead of the $7 million in repairs necessary to reopen the monument to the public.

"No one else had that story," Storozynski told Lowdown yesterday. "O'Reilly's producer, Rick McCue, said those exact words to me. He said, 'How'd you break this story? We looked around, no one else had this story' ... When I watched the segment, we weren't mentioned at all."

Storozynski said that when he complained the next day, the producer told him: "There's nothing I can do ... I can't tell him what to do. That's the way he operates."

What's this guy's problem? Inadequacy? Maybe he just needs a friend of something.

3. Kewl.
I heard it on Olbermann, then looked around for a way to post it, but got only two hits in a google news search. You even beat MSGOP!

Ted Baxter's evil twin, LOL.
