One of the comments on one of those blogs says that they think Olbermann is the kind of guy who will apologize if made aware of how offensive his comments were. Since when does Olby apologize for anything? And do these feminists realize he has quite the history of making offensive statements about women?

I am turning over a new leaf....my posts will only involve Mr. Olbermann's silly, hypocritical or immoral behavior. And if any of the Olbermann apologists (read: Colbert), try to bait me with personal attacks on my point of view, I will BRIEFLY defend myself and continue pointing out the bad behavior of my fav liberal.

So, with this new attitude.......

Oh the humanity....The typical responses of the misogynist's apologists will revolve around Bill O'Reilly and Representative Foley.....and here we go again.....

He's criticized Bush as well. Does that make him a misanthrope? I can tell ol' Cox is out of ammo if this is the best he can do...

Rat, you are indeed blind in addition to being deaf if you have somehow missed Olbermann's ongoing attacks and slams at women on-air. He has a problem with women and not just in his personal life it appears. If you wish to remain ignorant on that score, then by all means, stay in blissful ignorance. Just don't expect us to join you in your special (i.e., intellect-challenged) world.

Thanks Brandon, for that substance-free post (no aftertaste)...

Perhaps if you'd cited a few of Olberman's attacks on women, you'd look less the fool.

"Perhaps if you'd cited a few of Olberman's attacks on women, you'd look less the fool."

Do you mean verbal or sexual?

I'd like to see this site do an indepth article on the history of Keith's attacks on women. Recently there was the misogynist poll and a post on Oct 11 that contained some brief bulletpoints. But I don't know much about all the the incidents.

blindrat,

- his deplorable remarks about a female colleague at ESPN
- his smashing an Ann Coulter doll to pieces on air while cackling maniacally
- his characterization of Rita Cosby as "dumber than a suitcase full of rocks"
- his incredibly vile references to Ann Coulter as a [slang for part of the female anatomy
- referring to Lindsay Lohan's mother as a "bag"
- there are at least two websites deveoted to discussing nothing but this very topic - and those are from his FANS!

as posted by Robert 10/11/06.....

Come on and accept Olbermann has a problem....And when a heterosexual man reaches 40 and cannot establish a mature longterm relationship with a member of the opposite sex, what do most people think?

Sorry son...

He attacks men much more frequently than women. You haven't given me a single general attack on women as a sex. Just because you attack people who happen to be women, doesn't make you a misogynist...

You might want to take a course in logic...

Do you know what a course in "Logic" even teaches?

Rat- by your "logic" Krazy could call Colin Powel the "N" word and as long as he calls Charlie Rangle the "N" word too, it doesn't make him a racist!

Logical Argument:

Keith Olbermann makes disparaging remarks about women.

Blindrat's mother is a woman.

Therefore, Keith Olbermann would make disparaging remarks about Blindrat's mother

Let me help you out, Steve...

By my logic, Olbermann could call Colin Powell "as smart as a box of rocks" and not be a racist...

I hope this clears things up for you. If not, law school will eat you alive, son...

Thanks, Mr. Rubble, for illustrating a logical fallacy...

Maybe your example will help the other neocons see the error of their ways.

blindrat what a suitable monniker you have. but even a blind rat can find a rat trap once in awhile.
I am a bona fide misanthrope myself and olbermann is not a misanthrope. Olbermann is an equal opportunity hater. he hates any man or woman who dares disagree with his moonbat progressive idiot-ology. Tha's ideology for all you ignorant leftists.
rat boy tries to be funny:
"You might want to take a course in logic..."
it's amazing with your obvious lack of logic that you can even spell the word logic ratzo.
liberals trying to lecture Americans on logic is like trying to have Bill Klinton lecturing on marital fidelity or ted kenndy starting a driving school. I
I lways define logic as exactly opposite of anything a liberal says.

Rat- YOU can eat me.
My point was, if Krazy one night said, "Colin Powell is as dumb as a box of rocks", then another night smashes a doll of Martin Luther King, Jr. while laughing manically, then on yet another night, calls Condolezza Rice a "ho", he begins to set - what we in the legal profession call - a pattern.

Get it? Krazy has a PATTERN of attacks on women. And that's just his ON AIR stuff- I'm not even talking about his tabloid fodder real-life relationships!

It took Rat a whole 5 posts before he used the dreaded "NEOCON" reference... a new record.

Most libs bring out the whole NEOCON or BUSH IS HITLER jibes in their first postings.

Good job with the restraint, Rat!

Steve,

Nice to know that you have prepared me a meal. I think that, instead of concentrating on having men perform fellatio on you, you should concentrate on your studies, son...

Your example holds if the above events were ALL that Olberman did; however, you and I both know that he attacks men as much as women and he gives reasons for it. Or, are you contending that he attacked an Ann Coulter doll at random because she (currently) is a woman?...

blindrat,

The issue is not criticizing women v. men but the way he does it.

If you knew your Keith Olbermann history, you would know that he has had three major "issues" in his career - alienating his employers to the point of being fired (five times), the use of Nazi imagery to making personal attacks (apologized on-air once, condemned by Anti-Defamation League in another), and hateful sexist comments about women (Paris Hilton, Meredith Viera, Rita Cosby, Ann Coulter, etc.). You might also know of Keith hiring a private investigator to track down a former female teacher which his radio partner described as "stalking". And of course there is the kb1 blog.

Now, you can argue that this does not mean that Keith is a misogynist (although a recent OlbyWatch survey says differently) but he not Edward R. Murrow either, now is he?

Mr. Cox,

I thought that the above debate had degenerated into whether or not Olbermann was a misogynist. Thank you for informing me that it concerns whether or not he is Edward R. Murrow...

I agree. Olbermann is NOT Edward R. Murrow. Edward R. Murrow wouldn't last five minutes in today's infotainment environment. It seems a moot point...

Rat said: " If not, law school will eat you alive, son..."

That's why I said you can eat ME. Get it? You made a funny (not) and i replied- but, in typical liberal fashion, you didn't get the joke. Then, in typical liberal fashion, you disparage a minority group you claim to champion (member of?) - the gays. Good little lib.

Now, to the actual argument- you remember those, right? The PATTERN Krazy has established is that he has specifically used "extra" derogatory comments on women, that focus specifically on their being WOMEN. Terms like "SLUT" and "BAG" are reserved for women. (Stay with me- I know its hard for you...)

When you take GENDER SPECIFIC attacks and COUPLE them with actions (like calling female co-workers names that insult their intelligence and smashing female dolls) you have a pattern of sexist behavior.

I can't make it any easier- but I guess there are none so BLIND as those who will not see.

And by the way- don't call me son, I'm probably old enough to be your father. Of course, if you were MY son, I'd disown you.

Blindrat: he's also called Sharon Stone old and dried up (she's a year older than he is, wonder what that makes him), made references to women's weight numerous times, even when the women he was referring to were in no way overweight, just for starters. But thanks for playing. It's apparent you're in the "fact-free zone" in which, when clear examples are given to you, you still try to hold on to the hope that somehow, he doesn't have issues with women and a long history of verbally assaulting them both on air and in print.

Oh, and Rat- if you don't like/agree with the postings (you know- FACTS) of this site, why don't you go post over at MoveOn or DailyKos?

Oh, yeah- that's right... LIBERAL blogs don't allow postings that might have a hint of descent from their loony beliefs!

My mistake. You can post here all you want. Us, NEOCONs allow descent.

Sorry Steve, if my admonishment to keep your sexuality in check and concentrate on your studies was misinterperated...

You keep talking about a "pattern", as if extracting events from a huge mass of events forms a pattern that is indicative of the whole. Isolated incidents do not a pattern make.

This is precisely why I asked for specific examples of Olbermann attacking women in general. Let me help you out again...

By your logic, you could file an EEO suit against someone who had fired eleven blacks; however, your case would fall apart when it came to light that the employer had fired over a hundred others as well...

You're welcome, son...

Thanks Dad, for being so blind.
Maybe you should read the beginning of this post. Mr. Cox has linked to LIBERAL feminists blogs.

Are they just stupid like us NEOCONs? Or do they need lessons in logic from a moron like you too?

"blindrat,

The issue is not criticizing women v. men but the way he does it."

MISTER rat....did you mis this part of the message that MISTER Cox wrote? I know it was difficult to find being right at the beginning and set apart and all.

Hope this helps

Feminists CAN be stupid as well...

Look up the logical fallacy of appeal to false authority...

You are guilty of it, son...

Dad... the family and I have discussed it. And, well- we've decided... We're putting you in a home.

But, don't worry- it'll be a nice place where you and all your loony-liberal friends can bitch about all those NEOCONS.

You'll be happy there.
(pssst... Mom- sign the DNR order!)

Typical Olbyloon: blame whomever Olby has attacked for "deserving" it. Nice. Nice.

Still no facts from the neocon crew...

Too bad...

Brandon- don't you get it?!??
Rat is right! WE'RE too dumb to come to a conclusion based on Krazy's behavior... the Liberal feminists are too dumb to come to a conclusion based on Krazy's behavior... Krazy's FANS are too dumb to come to a conclusion based on Krazy's behavior... only Rat is smart enough to know the truth!

As Homer Simpson so elequently put it- "Everyone in the world is stupid but me."

NEOCONS!
NEOCONS!
Rah, Rah, RAH!

We've given Rat fact, after fact, and even linked to liberal feminist blogs to bolster our opinions. That's not enough for him. We're all dumb. He's the smart one.

NEOCONS!
NEOCONS!
Rah, Rah, RAH!

Feminists CAN be stupid as well...

see we can agree on some things...by the way...what are your views as to why MISTER Olbermann has referred to the women mentioned above in the way he has (i.e. Sharon Stone, Rita Cosby, Ann Coulter, etc...->see cee's post from 1151am)? Thank you

If you want a definition of "neocon", just ask...

And if anyone wants a definition of "Olbyloon" all they have to do is see YOUR posts here.

blindrat,
please respond to my post from 1256pm, & sure, what the hell, what is YOUR definition of NEOCON...?

No, Rat- we know the definition- we just love to hear liberals say it.

As in, "You damned NEOCONS! Don't try to persuade me with logic and reason!" or "Those Hitler loving NEOCONS just whoooped my ass on a blog site, when all I could do was name-call!"

See, we love it!

Except that we have proof that Olby likes to flash the Heil Hitler salute so does that make him a dreaded Neocon too?

What is a "neocon"?

A neocon believes in war, but not in serving himself (See Reagan, Bush jr. Cheney)

A neocon believes in fiscal responsibility, which they define as spending more than they take in...

A neocon believes in national security, unless the opposite is more politically expedient (Iran/Contra, Valarie Plame, Bush's delivery of a spy plane to China)...

A neocon believes in free speech, just not in our right to use it...

And etc...

The last conservative president that we ever had was Richard Nixon...

Rat said: "A neocon believes in free speech..."

At least he got that one right. That's why this site allows him to spew whatever talking points are posted over at DUmmies!

Most libs don't belive in free speech- as demonstrated daily on the blue blogs and at universities where they charge the stage or shout you down or throw food at you if you don't agree with thier skewed view of the world.

...plus, Rat's stock just went up a few notches- him being a Nixon fan and all...

It's hilarious how the neocons on this board forget about Bush's "Free Speech Zones" and ejecting people from events for wearing t-shirts...

LawStudentSteve:

"Most libs don't belive in free speech- as demonstrated daily on the blue blogs and at universities where they charge the stage or shout you down or throw food at you if you don't agree with thier skewed view of the world."

Ah, logical fallacy - generalization.

You offer the example of a few Columbia University students and two (or was it three) students throwing pies as being indicative "most liberals". Nice. Have you been reading Peggy Noonan?

And as to the point - KO didn't call Paris Hilton a slut. The GRAPHIC at the bottom of the screen used the word. Now, unless you're telling me that KO has control over what the graphic people do (here's a hint - he doesn't), drop it.

"A neocon believes in free speech, just not in our right to use it..."

Rat, there were hundreds of neocons at Columbia University recently protesting the right of free speech. Did you happen to see them on tv or the net?

What is a "neocon"?

A neocon believes in war, but not in serving himself (See Reagan, Bush jr. Cheney)
{By this argument FDR is a neocon; so is BJ Clinton as he used the military in Bosnia, Samolia, and to hurl missles at aspirin factories; also since W served in the reserves, the logical extension of that argument is that many who ever served in the reserves are automatically neocons}

A neocon believes in fiscal responsibility, which they define as spending more than they take in...
{Neocons= Tip O'Neil, anyone with the last name Kennedy, Jimmy Carter...there was 40 yrs of Dem. congress that built up deficits as well, but I don't want to look up all the names that belong under this defintion}

A neocon believes in national security, unless the opposite is more politically expedient (Iran/Contra, Valarie Plame, Bush's delivery of a spy plane to China)...
{ee BJ Clinton "wagging the dog"}

A neocon believes in free speech, just not in our right to use it...
{2 ways to show this one: 1) the Columbia Unversity students and their not allowing the Minutemen the opportunity to speak and the multiple other examples of this very same thing...so they must all be neocons; 2) W, his administration, and the people on this board
are NOT neocons as we are all allowing the free speech of rat & his buddies the opportunity to express his ideas...after all, KO is still not broadcasting from a fortified bunker hiding from the brownshirt squadrons sent by our government}

And etc...

The last conservative president that we ever had was Richard Nixon...

Actually, he does. He's Managing Editor of the show and has long crowed how he's responsible for what goes on air and the content of the show.

blindrat,

You can say what you want, it does not change the fact that several of the top feminist blogs including the biggest, BlogHer, are repudiating Olbermann.

The GRAPHIC at the bottom of the screen used the word. Now, unless you're telling me that KO has control over what the graphic people do (here's a hint - he doesn't), drop it.
--------
But apparently Bill O'Reilly IS reponsible for the graphics on HIS show (the Foley-D incident that was corrected....but i don't think the Paris thing was ever corrected, was it rat?)

Annon said "Now, unless you're telling me that KO has control over what the graphic people do (here's a hint - he doesn't), drop it."

Ummmmm... the title of the show is Countdown WITH KEITH OLBERMANN.

My guess is that he would ultimately be responsible for its content. Rest assured if some board-op wrote Colin Powel- "Uncle Tom" under a story about the first African American Secretary of State without Krazy's approval, Krazy would do a Special Comment to appologize.

Well, Krazy wouldn't actually appologize- he never has, never will- but he would say that the SHOW is sorry.

But, I digress- if Krazy is talking over a story with the caption that had "SLUT" underneath, and the show's title is Meltdown with Krazy, then KRAZY said it.

Conner,

There is a difference between wanting war and having to fight one. Rooselvelt was attacked by the Japanese. American forces were already in Somolia when Clinton took office (NATO was in Yugoslavia)...

Funny how neocon presidents are the ones that decides what our deficit is. Or this combination of Republican congress and republican president would be gold, eh son?...

Wag the dog is a great chant. I worked well for you neocons when Clinton missed Bin Laden with a missile by a scant hour. Good thing you have no shame, eh son?

Free speech doesn't mean that you can walk into a private area and talk. It does mean that you can protest your elected officials. That was a pretty facitious remark, child...

Don't know...

Why not give me a full quote and a link and I'll give it a shot...

My goodness...will the KO defenders ever admit he's wrong? There is a long-list of KO fabrications, but never a concession. The idioitic "but there's no football stadium in NYC" is just the latest in logical fallacies from KO that have Socrates turning over in his grave.

He uses a Nazi salute, and regularly compares Republican to Joseph McCarthy. But a not a word of criticism from the Olby-dimension.

Now we have an extremely crass comment made by KO. I'm not fan of Paris Hilton; in fact, I'm not quite sure why she's even news-worthy. However, someone who pretends that he's a serious newsman should not be making such references.

Can't any of you simply admit it was a stupid and regrettable comment? Or, is that just a rhetorical question?

Rat said: "Why not give me a full quote and a link and I'll give it a shot..."

Because- even when confronted with facts (actual quotes, links, etc.), you'll just go off on a rant, name-call, scream NEOCON, and continue to whine like the good liberal that you are.

Run back to your hole, rat... you've become boring. Predictable, but boring nonetheless.

LawStudentSteve said:

The illogic of that statement is so stunning I'm reminded of the quote in "The Paper Chase":

"Mister Hart, here is a dime. Take it, call your mother, and tell her there is serious doubt about you ever becoming a lawyer."

I asked for a quote and a link and you neocons provided me with...nothing...

Seems that this crew is shooting blanks here...

Not much better than the Yahoo Message Board...

The "run back to your hole" post was me. Sorry- I never want to hide behind "Anonymous".

I'll hide behind my own pseudonym, thank you!

Steve,

I've got to go for a CAT scan now. If you can get over the irony of a blind rat going for a CAT scan you can think about the fact that you haven't provided anything in the way of context or evidence...

When asked to, you folded. That won't serve you well in court; however, you may simply want to be a corporate lawyer...

Hell... I would think calling Paris Hilton a slut is actually fairly moderate... I would call her a rich, empty headed, worthless slag. Politics has nothing to do with class,, KO may not have any, but that SLUT certainly does not.

Annon said: " The illogic of that statement is so stunning I'm reminded of the quote in "The Paper Chase..."

I'm sorry if you can't connect the dots, "Annon", I'll try to go slower- the show bears his name. If someone else affiliated with the show does something that is deemed inappropriate, then Krazy can have him fired or at least make a statement that it was a mistake. In the case at hand, Krazy (who has a history of calling women gender-oriented names) talked over a piece where the word SLUT was used.

Krazy either - #1) Wrote the headline or #2) Approved of the headline. Either way, it continues his PATTERN of sexist behavior.

Therefore, I answer your claim with a quote of my own. This one from that great cinematic classic, Billy Madison-
"Mr. Madison(ANNON), what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul."

That's okay Rat, you've been replaced by O'Lamely... he's just as idiotic as you, if not more so. He name-calls a LOT better than you.

Still here, Steve...

Remember, you aren't performing well, son. Try to work on that...

Dad,
I've (we've?) given you concrete examples of Krazy's pattern of sexist behavior by citing his actual words and deeds. Mr. Cox has linked to liberal/feminist blogs documenting outrage over Krazy's behavior by the left and his fans. I can offer you no more "proof".

As I said before- there are none so blind as those who WILL NOT see.

Good luck on your CAT scan.

I see MISTER rat too lazy or ignorant to scroll up to the post I mentioned in in my post which is also the basis of this entire node of conversation, so I think it is pretty safe to assume that he has no viable arguments on his own behalf. Thus his own "blind" moniker.

Plus, let us look at his response to my taking apart HIS definition of neocon:
Conner,

There is a difference between wanting war and having to fight one. Rooselvelt was attacked by the Japanese. American forces were already in Somolia when Clinton took office (NATO was in Yugoslavia)...
{so what you saying is that FDR refused to take the attack on the US in stride just to keep the peace? he did not HAVE to fight, he choose to...also, he could have just declared war on Japan and negotiated with Germany (as Joe Kennedy wanted; Clinton did not HAVE to authorize American troops to stay anywhere, could have pulled them out so as not to anger anyone in those places...did not have to order the bombings in the former Yoguslavia....your attempts to re-define your own defintion do not hold water}

Funny how neocon presidents are the ones that decides what our deficit is. Or this combination of Republican congress and republican president would be gold, eh son?...
{seriously, WTF does this even mean? that during W's first week in office he got together with Cheney, and Powell and representative of Major League Baseball-everyone needs their express written consent after all-and decided that they would place the deficit at 4.2 trillion dollars?...I cannot eve begin to discuss the second sentence fragment as it is impossible to figure out what it is referring to}

Wag the dog is a great chant. I worked well for you neocons when Clinton missed Bin Laden with a missile by a scant hour. Good thing you have no shame, eh son?
{Here we have the classic ignore the argument and obfuscate the point. I along with everyone else here wish he would have gotten UBL...it would have chaged where things stand today. I don't care if it made a great chant or not, please note during his presidency BJ took his largest military actions at times when he was under fire for a myriad of things back home. PLUS the items you mentioned didn't even fit with your definiton statement Iran/contra-tried to fund rebels that were fighting against a government not friendly to the US (see Bay of Pigs); Plame was outed by a state department official who's own views were opposite of the Bush administration; and finally "delivery" of a spy plane to china...yeah, we wanted them to have it...and Kyle from South Park was responsible for 9/11}

Free speech doesn't mean that you can walk into a private area and talk. It does mean that you can protest your elected officials.
{you can protest the administration all you want, if you are crying about protesters at Republican rallys that were taken away-and released btw...not held in the basment of the Cheyenne Mountain Complex-then Kerry is as culpable as W, since the same things were carried out at his rallys...other than that there can be no point to your argument as Cindy Sheehan has proved as she lived outside the White House and W's own private property in TX...she even got to meet with him! Apparently you never watch the news and read the newspapers or else you would see that nearly everyday, people are protesting our elected officials...and by the way...free speech means both the items you list and more}

That was a pretty facitious remark, child...
{ahh the sweet condescension of another deluded libera...I mean progressive (snicker, chortle)...calling someone whose age and parentage he does know child...the only basis for this being he FEELS he is intellectually superior but in no way shows that he is...}

{once again a helping hand to dementia addled blindrat by connor_in)

HOMER: Boooooring

Maybe Olby hates women because he can't please them; they know it and he knows it. Other than the faithful (sane) Olbywatch crowd, women are the only other segment of society where he gets no love (pun intended).

Don't you know that he gets quite a bunch of female fans. There are lots of women love him. Now they all get upset for he is living with his 'daughter'. By the way, when I look at her pic, I think she is at least 35.

That's just the mileage showing on her.

Her birthdate by the way is 10-26-1983. You do the math. His is 1-27-1959. Her father is YOUNGER than Olby.

Don't you know that he gets quite a bunch of female fans.
------
So do the Menendez brothers, Charles manson, & many other inmates

I always thought Olby has good taste, he said to Dan Patrick before that he is craving for dating Julie Chritie all his life. Ms. Christie is very pretty and charming.

he made the Julie Christie comment after getting slammed by his own fans for dissing Sharon Stone on her age. I always felt it was a CYA comment on his part, designed to appease some of his more gulliable (and aged) female fan base. but there's a pattern here. His last several date-mates or fan on Olbermann's have been in their 20's and early 30's. He's pushing 50. If he wants to date someone of the Julie Christie caliber why is he looking in the 20-age range not the 50/60? I'll tell you why: because he's a lying hypocrite who says one thing and does the exact opposite. Wake up and snort the Starbucks: he likes 'em young. VERY YOUNG.

Blind(and logically impaired as well) Rat: please check back through the Owatch archives where you'll find the quotes you seek re Olbermann's repeated slams at and against women. I'm sure you'll be able to justify everything he says though by using the well-worn phrase, "What he meant was. . " "What he was really trying to say", because those are phrases often-used by the Olbyloons as they try to cover up for, excuse, and explain away whatever his gafe of the day has been. You know, how that Nazi salute really wasn't anti-Jew in nature but was instead some oblique reference to Bill O'Reilly? Yeah, that type of reasoning/logic which doesn't make a damn bit of sense except to you and your addled-brained sisters and logic-lacking liberal loony kooks.

Oh and lets not forget how he dated a teen-age Rebecca Lobo when he was already in his mid-late 30's. Explain THAT.

USCB:

I do not know his personal life as much as you do. I use to like him but not anymore. He is definitely a hyprocite.

Paris was part of the vote or die campaign. Only wish there would have been and interview between her and olbs. Would have been award winning journalism.

Basis of this thread is a percieved notion that KO does not like women. Here is the closest thing to laying out proof.

- his deplorable remarks about a female colleague at ESPN
- his smashing an Ann Coulter doll to pieces on air while cackling maniacally
- his characterization of Rita Cosby as "dumber than a suitcase full of rocks"
- his incredibly vile references to Ann Coulter as a [slang for part of the female anatomy
- referring to Lindsay Lohan's mother as a "bag"

So no one here has ever described or called a woman a "bitch", "whore", "cunt", "slut", "dumb", or any other insulting comment. If you did and have so repeatedly in your life about one or several women, does that make you a misogynist?

How would this board describe the actions of Paris Hilton? Would you condsider her a slut or not one? If you do consider her a slut does that mean KO had a valid point in describing her that way? If you think she is not slut then what exactly is your definition of a "slut"? Is being a "slut" even a bad thing?

I especially loved the person who cited the tabloids as support KO being against women. The argument here being that the tabloids plussome historical comments about a female sports anchor and his on air comments about some specific women show a pattern of not liking women. Really? I count here 5 women that he has insulted. Human society is made up almost equally of women and men. Therefore it is highly likely that men have interacted with women who they consider in negative terms as well as the opposite. Chances are is that someone in the age group of KO has met personally thousands of women. So he insults 5 of them. Is that proof of a pattern? You can say it was maybe bad judgement on his part to say some his on air comments but otherwise you are grasping at straws. Please refer me to evidence where he has advocated that women should be treated as inferior to men in a systemic way.

How many people haveever used the word "feminazis" to describe the beliefs of some women and how is that any different then calling a woman a "slut"?

This site has jumped the shark.

a oouple of years ago I was reading an article in a woman's magazine about an unscrupulous news anchor who used & tossed away women. The writer told of her brush with him and how he 'still wasn't married" and was still using/abandoning women. I had no idea who she was talking about at the time but I think Olbermann is a good bet as the culprit.

He is a kind of guy looking down on women except Rebecca Lobo and those who are not as smart as him. He adores Rebecca until she gets married. He mentions her name all the time, how smart she is and how good a badketball player she was.

Is Olby going to do a special segment of the Electin tomorrow? We are going to be busy.

John,

So no one here has ever described or called a woman "bitch", "whore", "cunt", "slut", "dumb", or any other insulting comment. If you did and have so repeatedly in your life about one or several women, does that make you a misogynist?

Ah.....yes.

Any man who has an ounce of self respect AND respects women would never use those words, even in a fit of anger. So, I guess there is a possibility that Olbermann is not a misogynist but an absolute vile human being....oh that's right, he is!

"Any man who has an ounce of self respect AND respects women would never use those words, even in a fit of anger. So, I guess there is a possibility that Olbermann is not a misogynist but an absolute vile human being....oh that's right, he is!"

So's about 90% of the male population, based upon your logic. And quite a sizable percentage of the female population (I have seen WAY too many arguments between females where these words have been used).

Any man who has an ounce of self respect AND respects women would never use those words, even in a fit of anger.

That eliminates every single man and woman from having any type of self respect including you. Quite being self righteous and start being real.

To the Keith apologists who want to excuse KO because he does not control the crawl at the bottom of the screen....nice try at tossing out a red herring.

Besides the fact that it is HIS SHOW and so he IS responsible for the broadcast, the causus belli in the feminist blog posts I linked was NOT the word "slut" in the crawl. That was part of it but what really set these women off was the ""worse things happen to her face" line which was delivered BY KEITH.

Feminste wrote "Paris Hilton claims she was punched in the face yesterday morning at a nightclub in Hollywood [pause] ‘Course she’s had worse things happen to her face..."

Next time, try and deal with the facts instead of knocking down strawmen.

I dealt with the facts. You have proudly ignored them.

Oh boy.....the world of Olbermann...where men call women horrible names, can't have mature relationships based on mutual respect and then the next minute stare into a TV camera and sanctimoniously pontificate how horrible people like Rush and BillO behave.

Rush and BillO ignore the pathetic Olbermann, so this site takes up the slack to point out Keith's stupidity. Ain't it grand?

olbermann only deals with selective facts that suport his moonbat ideology.
no wonder this idiot is still single. Who would want to even be near somebody with his level of self centeredness? From the times I have watched his "news" show I really don't see how anybody could tolerate him for too long. My impression of olbermann is that he is a closeted fag. He does seem to get along really well with the deplorable toad like homosexual Musto.
Maybe South Park will do an episode where olbermann goes into the closet but that episode unlike the Tom Cruise episode will have a happy ending and once olbermann goes in to the closet they will lock the door and throw away the key thus preventing olby from whining on national TV.
If olbermann gets his DNA on an intern's dress will the democrat party run him for president?

John you dealt with SOME facts not THE facts.

There are not FIVE examples of Keith making these types of comments about women, there were five provided in the comment above. You are obviously new here because if you were familiar with the site you would know that we have documented these types of things for about two years.

However, what I like best you about comment is your novel approach to defending Keith with the "we all do it" defense. You wrote:

"So no one here has ever described or called a woman a "bitch", "whore", "cunt", "slut", "dumb", or any other insulting comment. If you did and have so repeatedly in your life about one or several women, does that make you a misogynist?"

As a matter of fact, I don't go around calling women names like that and I certainly have never done it on radio or television. That YOU excuse Keith on the grounds that this type of behavior is somehow common or acceptable is priceless. With friends like you, KO does not need enemies.

For the record, if you go around calling women "bitch", "whore", "cunt", and "slut" then YES, be definition, you are a misogynist. No wonder you are such a big fan of Keith Olbermann.

So if someone's wife or girlfriend cheats on them and they call that woman a "bitch" or "slut" that automatically makes them a misogynist. Your argument would be that yes they would be. I think the pc police have gotten to you.

My point is that saying a disparaging comment about a woman does not make you misogynist. A misogynist has a base hatred for the women. Calling someone any of those names is more a mark of anger at a particular person and not a comment on women as a whole. I've heard plenty of women call a guy a "dick" or and "a--hole" but I don't consider them sexist for making the comment

Also the blog you are citing goes on to say that yes many people would consider ejacualte to the face as more humiliating than a punch even though that is not the authors opinion. Since that is a percieved notion in the public, I would say that KO was making a joke based on that perception. You can call it bad taste but that is not proof of being a misogynist.

John, thank you for providing another fine insight into the lunatic ravings of the average Olbermann fan in which you can excuse every single thing he says, no matter how idiotic, racist, or sexist it might be. Really, I couldn't invent you people if I tried, your gross stupidity and never-endless supply of excuses for Olbermann's deplorable behavior never cease.

Brandon,

Thanks for having no point to add to the debate. I assume it is because you don't have one or maybe you do not comprehend the point I was making. Your politically correct liberal attitude has clouded your ability to reason.

John, you seem to have real anger issues. But sorry, I can't buy your defense of Olbermann. I believe his words and actions speak for themselves. He can barely get through a week without making some slam at women or a specific woman. Had those comments been made by anyone at Fox, the liberal bloggers would have demanded their head on a silver platter. And now that the feminist bloggers have finally begun to call Olby on his atrocious statements regarding women, people like you pop up to defend him. Hey, why don't you go straighten out those feminist, liberal bloggers and then come back here and tells us how you faired in your task.

One might have some justification to call a given female on some occasions any of the aforementioned derogatory names. Females aren't all angels, and as the moonbat said, they do their share of name calling as well. However, I don't see how a clown like Olbermann can use his forums on TV and Radio to repeatedly make gutter level comments about gals that he doesn't even know and expect not to be criticized for it. I would expect a "news anchor" to exhibit a higher level of decorum, but Olbermann is just a freakshow.
