O'Reilly accused Oregon of "judicial fascism"

On the October 10 broadcast of his nationally syndicated radio show and on the October 11 edition of his Fox News program, Bill O'Reilly baselessly asserted that Oregon was "being hijacked by the judges." Infuriated by a recent Oregon Supreme Court ruling that a statute prohibiting live sex acts in adult venues constituted a violation of free expression under the Oregon state constitution, O'Reilly decried the action as "judicial fascism" and claimed that the Oregon judiciary wanted "to turn it [Oregon] into a secular paradise," falsely attributing Oregonian policies on physician-assisted suicide and medical marijuana to the courts.
