Eminem - a rapper's delight?

Not in Bill O'Reilly's eyes.

On Wednesday's O'Reilly Factor, the Fox News host, 59, slammed the rapper, 36, for mocking Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin in new video, "We Made You."

On the song, Eminem also raps, "I'll invite Sarah Palin out to dinner, nail her/ Baby, say hello to my little friend."

O'Reilly said the "attack" on Palin was "crude."

"Few Americans take the vile rapper Eminem seriously," he said. "He represents the lowest form of entertainment in this country and is a publicity hound to boot."

"Kids see it, not adults," said O'Reilly, adding that "no one over 25 listens to him."

He said he also was surprised women's groups and "left wing" media outlets are not protesting the rapper, who also mocks Jessica Simpson , Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan in his video.

If Travis Tritt made a derogatory reference about Hilary Clinton or Michelle Obama , O'Reilly argued, media outlets would "kill him."

" Eminem is obviously on an obscene rant about Sarah Palin," O'Reilly said. "It's totally obscene, totally inappropriate."

"All I want to do is repeat that Eminem means nothing," he added. "The video means nothing. It's played for kids that are confused."

    I am currently ready Sarah Palins book. I find her a down to earth, true American woman. She is a wonderful wife, mother, and person. Someone who loves her Country, what it stands for, and the "little" people. She cannot be bought, bribed, or threatened. If she runs for President, I know a lot of people who will vote for her, including me. By the way, I am 60 yr. old, and love

    My opinion of rap and who listens to it is based on the people I know who listen to it. they are of lower intelligence than other people. The people who listen to it degrade their wives, girlfriends and even children. They have no morals or consideration for other people. What do we expect when you listen to someone like em that raps about killing his wife in front of his small child. Its CRAP!

    Not many ppl I know listen to Eminem. I guess it all depends on what world you live in. I wouldn't say bashing ppl in rap songs is a good thing to do but hey the government does it all the time around election time. I wouldn't say Bill O'Reilly is correct for what he said But I wouldn't say he is wrong either.

    Bill I guess you know EVERYONE over the age of 25. Well I know a lot of them, I am one and we do listen to Em. Now if he said something about Michelle O you wouldn't be complain. In the rap world everyone is free game to be talked about. And just because you don't listen to or care about rap doesn't mean its the lowest form of entertainment. STFU O'Reilly for r

    What's up with Eminem's face? It looks like he suffers from too much botox injections or he has way too much makeup on
