Samantha Bee's response to Bill O'Reilly's statement about being let go from Fox News can Philippines adultbe expressed in four letters: FTFY. In a tweet, she promptly fixed up Bill O'Reilly's statement that went out a few hours after the conservative talk show host was fired from his Fox News show.
SEE ALSO: Bill O'Reilly was fired from Fox News and this is the internet's go-to jokeWith just a few quick changes Bee took O'Reilly's five dry sentences to the next level.
For example, instead of the show entertaining "millions of Americans," Bee corrects it to say O'Reilly only entertained "dads." Truth.
