Elizabeth Hasselbeck: Sheriff Dupnik Is Dangerous

One of The View co-hosts, Elizabeth Hasselbeck, stopped by The Factor and told Bill O’Reilly she wasn’t happy about Sheriff Dupnik continuing toblame right-wing rhetoric for the Arizona shooting. She also revealed despite being the only conservative voice on The View, she doesn’t feel like she’s ganged up on.

Hasselbeck agreed with the Arizona sheriff that words do matter, but just disagreed as to which words are the problem. She believed Dupnik’s continued talk of “vitriolic rhetoric” is itself “creating a more dangerous country and situation for us by providing this justification that someone in the future could use, that ‘the right devil made me do it.’” And she found it “sad and unfortunate” that such a justification was coming from a law enforcement official.

O’Reilly agreed that he found the sheriff’s statements troubling, and was angry that the sheriff wouldn’t come on The Factor to talk, theorizing that since Megyn Kelly “disassembled” the sheriff, he was too scared to return to Fox News.
