It was not in the book. Opie and Anthony broke the story, fox wrote an article mentioning they broke it, then O'Reilly stole the story by saying it was in the Book so he wouldn't have to say O&A broke the story (greedy jerk hole Bill made it all about him). In the book Kyle mentions he knocked down someone BUT DOES NOT call Jesse by name. That is why he was surprised O&A asked him about the story because he didn't think many people knew about it. Apparently it is known amongst fellow SEALs

I guess some people have now called the bar this happened at and talked to Greg McPartlin aka "Doc", former SEAL and owner of MCP's and he said the SEAL's story never happened. Pretty disgusting for a service member to do that to another service member.

I am going to go out on a limb here 
and trust the former Governor of a state over a mercenary who brags about his "kills" as if he is playing a video game all the while profiting from war. As far as Alex Jones is concerned, he is much better at informing his audience about the truth while his counterparts, the corporate mainstream media, cannot go 15 minutes without spewing out an outright lie or even worse half truths which are harder to overcome.

Interesting so many people here are defending a Mercenary. Who brags about his kills!
Kyle has a stake in this racket, he cannot have Jesse Ventura publicly calling for ending unlawful wars that make mercenaries rich!!
Craft International is the name of his company.
"Kyle spoke to Gary Buiso at the NY Post about his new book American Sniper and offered a few details about what life was like for him as he racked up the kills."

Not reported - this guy totally cleared out the deer population around Lufkin Texas where the local "jumpers" nicknamed him "Bambi's Nightmare".

That is what I meant, I had a typo I missed--"It was so in the book, he just didn't use Jesse name--so he says."
So if what you say is true...How did Opie & Anthony know about it--unless they are speed readers, the book came out in print:
American Sniper: The Autobiography of the Most Lethal Sniper in U.S. Military History Pub. Date: 1/3/2012 Publisher: HarperCollins Publishers

A listener asked them to tell the story, they did and had no idea it had never been told publicly before, the show listeners and employees confirmed Jesse was not mentioned by name in the book.

Its a comedy show....they are pretty fair people and freaking funny as hell if you ever listened...and they endorsed Ron Paul. So whatever
I don't know about you but I always get my news from the shock jock morning zoo clowns Opie and Anthony.
I don't get my news from a comedy show, but the story did originate from their show...so it has relevance...did it ever occur to you to listen to the full interview and not just take everything psycho alex jones says?.
Any way, I'm not going to argue with conspiracy theorists who are brainwashed by Alex Jones (oh the irony) and visit prisonplanet and infowars all the time

No real opinion one way or the other on Ventura. Don't care for his Conspiracy Theory show too much, to each his own, I guess.
Here's a couple things that made me doubt this 'SEAL':
1) This was the very first time an accomplished sniper went on the pundit tour to brag on his skills that I can recall. The few snipers I have spoken with are not all about the numbers and self-congratulation. I was in the middle of ignoring the interview(O'Really?) when I heard him referenced as the "most lethal SEAL in history". I perked up to take it in, then I heard.....
2) His answer when asked, "So what'd you do after you hit him?" When he answered, "I ran." Then I knew we had us a fraud folks. What sniper with 255 kills, knocks out a sixty year old man in a bar and runs off like a playground punk? Are we to believe he walked through the fire over there, fearing no Haji, but somehow in Coronado CA, was stricken with fear and fled the beating of an old man? What, he was thinking The Body would somehow spring back up from the floor and then kick his lying ass all over the place? Having never served, am largely speculating that SEAL training would preclude one from sucker punching a geriatric veteran, regardless of what came from his mouth.
Just based on these two quick observations, I do indeed hope Ventura sues this merc and every media outlet that ran the story.
