During a discussion with Fox News host Geraldo Rivera on the July 13 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor, host Bill O'Reilly wondered aloud if Mafia hit man Tommy "Horsehead" Scafidi -- who was allegedly ordered to murder Rivera -- could "have killed [Air America radio host] Jerry Springer" instead.
After laughing, Rivera responded: "I can name a couple of other people off the top of my head." O'Reilly then suggested another potential target: former MSNBC host Maury Povich. (Rivera recently interview Scafidi who claims that the hit was orded by Philadephia Mob Boss, John Stanfa, in 1991.)From the July 13 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor:
RIVERA: Well, what "Horsehead" said he said was, "John, you can't kill Geraldo or any of these high-profile people. It will just bring down more heat on us."
O'REILLY: All right, but I've got a question. Couldn't he have killed Jerry Springer?
RIVERA: [laughing] I can name a couple of other people off the top of my head.
O'REILLY: Yeah, I mean, Maury Povich? All right. So they didn't kill you.
