There's been a lot of talk about the Republican presidential candidates demanding changes in future debates. Well, on Tuesday's Tonight Show, Fox News host Bill O'Reilly made some demands of his own. The first one, "Stop complaining," came with a kicker: "You guys are starting to sound like a bunch of Democrats out there." To highlight his second demand, "Answer the question," O'Reilly used Jimmy Fallon as a prop, asking him, debate-style, what he would do to heal the political divide in the country. Fallon's answer — "Pizza party" — got a good response, but the second time he used that, O'Reilly snuck in a bit of snark: "We're dealing with a lot of depth here."
