Lack of cite? Really? O'Reilly cited his own experience stating that his
costs have risen dramatically. He cites labor statistics that say if
Americans that have stopped looking for work were still in the job market,
the unemployment rate would be higher. He cites the Washington Post for how
many "navigators" will be needed, and how it will be impossible to know if
the navigators are really doing anything beyond collecting a paycheck.

What do you need to see?! The Memo segment is not "hard reporting," it is
O'Reilly's opinion of what is happening. You can debate that his opinion is
correct or not, but you have a very hard time telling us that his personal
experience is inaccurate. As for citation, he gives several -- at least one
for each point he makes.

That's the memo...
