He's not only dumb, he's insane
Celiac must be in his brain
The emails he did
Proves he's insipid
His "news" show is circling the drain

KO was lousy when he was doing sports on KNBC Los Angeles, and is lousy now.
How he got his own show is beyond me.

Anyone know why CD wasn't on at 9 AM today? Are they already making "changes"?

Bill Gates retirement in 2 years can't really be breaking news.

Keith is a Potty Mouth! Keith is a Potty Mouth! And he`s rude too. And he replies to nasty emails with nastiness! Keith is a NASTY Potty Mouth! And he hates your Mom. He even hates her apple pie. Why does Keith hate apple pie? Why does Keith hate the troops? Why does Keith hate America?

Big f'n deal

You'd think that Olbermann's email put-downs would be better...

Must be using all of his creative anal leakage on the show.

Scott at FTVLive has 25 more of these style emails. How many more are there out there? What else has he said in email he shouldn't have?

I wish Keith would accept the idea of "if it bleeds, it leads."

or in his case, "if there is seepage, there will be weep-age."

(Appeared in a series of television commercials for the Boston Market restaurant chain in 1997, in which he tells a bunch of Calvin Klein-type models - contemplating empty, burning sensations inside - to "Eat something.")

...or they may have Celiac disease. Boston Market must have been geniuses to hire a spokesman with a very public case of the shits.

Brandon,

Isn't FTLive behind a paywall? Can you provide a link to these emails? Are they more of the same?

The e-mailer deserved it.

If you send a stupid email, expect to be told to go fuck yourself. I have no problem with KO or anyone else saying fuck off to an idiot. If antyhing, we need more people telling idiots and liars to fuck off. If someone questions my patriotism or integrity, I'm gonna drop the F-bomb too.

Rock on, Keith.

Abe, you sure enjoy using the "f" word, don't you?

If you send a stupid email, expect to be told to go fuck yourself. I have no problem with KO or anyone else saying fuck off to an idiot. If antyhing, we need more people telling idiots and liars to fuck off. If someone questions my patriotism or integrity, I'm gonna drop the F-bomb too.

I VEHEMENTLY question your integrity and patriotism.

Deal with it.

Well then,

FUCK the democrats, Kos, Atrios et al.

I think all people need to be able to tell someone "Fuck off" once in a while. It can do wonders for stress.

An actual transcript of Olby's last visit to his psychiatrist:

OLBERMANN: Listen, I am Olbermann--do you hear me, Ol-ber-mann, the Olby-dude, the Olby Wan Kenobe, the Big "Do Not Fuck with Me Media" Icon-- nobody tells me what to do and nobody tells me what to say ( well- except for that bullshit about my producers "making me" do stories on my badder than bad ass show, but, hey those stooges don't mind if I blame them so the audience don't know I'm really into TomKat and Amercian Idol). Anyway, where was I-- oh yeah, I was talking about the right wing Bill Frist loving Nazis. You'll have to excuse me --I don't think my meds are balanced out quite right today, but man that Xanax gives a hell of a buzz, it does make me kind of agitated and grumpy though. For some reason when I pop about 4 or 5 of those Xanax tabs I'm just cruising for about 3 hours, then the buzz wears off and I start to get depressed and think about my stupid miserable life-- I'm all alone, everybody hates me, I have to try so hard to act cool-- good God, what I doing? I'm almost 50 years old and I'm throwing papers all over the set, making "here kitty, kitty" noises, and Ted Baxter voices to O'Reilly and-- O'Reilly . . . O'Reilly . . . O' Reilly . .. that, that . .. that . . .man, he is trying to get me! I saw him ducking down behind the hedges outside the studio. I know he has something to do with those e-mails getting out there. I'll bet that Karl Rove put him up to it. Karl's still mad at me you know for saying he was gonna get indicted. I know he watched my show. Everybody at the White House does. They like to say they watch that wretched Fox news, but they just say that to soothe the right wingers. They really watch me though-- and why wouldn't they? I'm edgy and hip and Lord knows this adminstration needs anm infusion of hip. And I know how hip is done, baby. Just look at my demos for the 18-34 age group. Pretty bad ass, huh? Yeah, they really dig it when I start getting into the personal stuff like when I started spitting up blood in the trashcan and talking about my mental problems. It's like I'm inviting them into my living room and everybody can be my buddy. Not that I need any buddies. I don't need ANYBODY . .NOBODY, GODDAM IT! The OLBY doesn't need anyone. I'll tell everyone to fuck off or fuck their mothers, fathers, whoever. Just don't fuck with me !!! I'm not afraid of anyone-- well, except (dont' tell anybody this, you gotta promise) except that O'Reilly. He intimidates the hell out of me. He's got so many fans and he seems like such a natural in front of the camera and I'm so stiff and dopey-- I just can't do it like he can. I wish I could just admit my insecurity instead of hiding it by going off on those idiotic tirades I go off on about O'Reilly. I know I look like such a moron. But you know, there are some viewers that like that kind of stuff-- you know, the presidential election was rigged, Rove is getting indicted stuff. They think I'm "brave" and "keeping it real", so that's pretty cool. But they're idiots-I just keep this stuff going because the slackers who watch me like it-- do you know how hard it is to sit there night after night with a straight face and act like David Schuster and Dana Milbank are serious commentators on the the issues of the day? Lord, I've gotta do something else before I get cancelled. Have you seen my numbers? they suck . . . I must be good at something.. You know, I'm in the Baseball Hall of Fame. That's right I am. O'Reilly 's not in the Hall of Fame, that wussy. Let's see him name even 10 of the third base coaches I compiled on my list. Now that's really something . . . Oh are we out of time today, doc? Hey listen doc, my employment siutation is a bit. . .um, unstable at the momement, and you know I've got some bids in on e-bay for some really bitching baseball cards that I just gotta have, so could I, like, pay you next time I come in? Thanks, doc, really appreciate it, Hey, I need a double refill on the Xanax if you could. Great, thanks.

You asked for advice and you got it. What are you complaining about? Did it not work out?
