Through the dark times when Olbermann Watch was shut down, it was the letters from our loyal and now suffering readers that gave us the courage and determination to continue.
Subject: NOOOOOOO
OW was my favorite web site. I checked it at least twice a day. I thought you were just kidding saying it was going to end. I feel like Keith won. Very depressing.
- Becky
===================================
Subject: WHAT?!
So I go to visit one of my favorite sites this afternoon, olbermannwatch.com, and it moves me to a RIP page. Is this just a bad joke? You are letting the liberal olberidiots win by shutting down your site. I can understand your reasons for wanting to close the site down, that it is sometimes counterproductive to the mission of OW in that it gets more people to watch Countdown and therefore--possibly artificially--increases his ratings. Even so, it saddens me to see this site being shut down.
Though I rarely posted due to the nonsensical ramblings of many "olbyloons" I visited the site every morning to keep my eye on what Olbermann was doing so that I could more accurately know about his biases. There were many times that I referred people on billoreilly.com to OW to help show them they type of person Olbermann is. I am now going to have to watch the segments of Countdown on msnbc.com, like I usually do, and pay more attention to what he says and to what his guests say.
Truly, I hope you all will reconsider, although it seems like this decision is fairly final. But I will continue to hope. Good luck to you all.

I have been an avid reader of Olbermannwatch.com for some time now and looked forward to your daily report on Keith's latest idiocy each morning. I am sorry to see you have taken your site down.

Subject: Please Don't!
I hope you'll reconsider the closing of olbermannwatch.com. While not a regular Countdown viewer, I read your site daily, and appreciate all the homework you've done exposing the hypocrisy and arrogance of the most biased "news" show on television. I'll miss it very much if it's really gone for good.

Say it ain't so, Joe. Olbermannwatch was one of my daily reads. I don't see any indication of "more harm than good." Any person or sites that point out Dulbermann's hypocrisy is sure to do more good over the long haul. I implore you to reconsider and bring Olbermannwatch.com back. It isn't over. Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell, no! And it ain't over now. Don't give up. Don't ever give up.

===================================
Subject: Thank you
I want to thank you, and of course Johnny $ for your valiant efforts these many months. OW had become a daily must for me. Though I never posted, I thoroughly enjoyed the recaps by Johnny and you own observations concerning the malodorous one. Almost as enjoyable was the daily reassurance that the far left continues to rant, rave and make no sense. “They†are simply not serious people. It is surely frustrating that the MSM and the vitriolic, venomous left may continue to ignore KO’s incredible shortcomings as a “journalistâ€, his breathtaking hypocrisy, and his complete disregard for truth. As we clear thinkers are aware, there is no more intolerant, hateful and disingenuous coterie than those who refer to themselves as progressive.
Again, your efforts were appreciated by more decent people than you probably know. Thank you, and take heart; the ultimate truths are on our side.

Subject: Closing Down Site
Now it seems Olbymoron won. I went to this site first every night before any others. This site opened my eyes to the fact that Olbermann is a fraud, a monkey posing as a newscaster. Without your site I would have never known that. I hate to see him "win". Now he'll be unstoppable.

===================================
Subject: Please come back.
You were a beacon of truth and light and all those things that the Olybloons THINK that Olbermann is but really isn't. We need a forum to point out his lies and distortions. You saw how he would react to things that were said about him on Owatch, you have to KNOW that it made an impact. Olbermann's ratings went up because he began to pander to the extreme left. It won't last. I believe Owatch made a difference and it needs to exist in cybserspace. Please reconsider.

Can't believe you are going to let a propagandist like KeithO run around without any checks and balances. Surely it made your stomach churn to watch him blurt out his deceptions, but you did a great documenting them. Now he has broken his leash. Look out. We can only hope he gets hit by a car.

I think you are right about this. I watched this site for about a year. It was fun to see someone knock this asshole down on every one of his stupid positions. He will eventually crash - and has left a trail of so much idiocy that will prevent him from ever rising again.
Thanks for the site - but I think you are doing the right thing.

Thanks for all of the time you took to expose Olbermann's ridiculousness. I wouldn't give that show a moment of my viewing time - and thankfully for you guys, I didn't have to. I don't think you guys did more harm than good.

Subject: Regarding your Removal of Website
I can say with 100% certainty that I was quite disappointed to come home today from work and find the website no longer with us. Beyond the distain for Mr. Olbermann's "journalistic ethics", I truly found this forum to be a valuable asset for the debating and exchanging of ideas.
In spite of contracts being renewed, I do believe that there is a place in the cyberworld for what you have brought to all of us. Without question, I would respect your decision if you chose to not bring it back to life, but hope that you have second thoughts.
If, in fact, you do choose to leave it vacant, I truly want to thank both you and J$ for the thankless job you have done over the last several years shedding light on a brand of hypocrisy that had been ignored all too often.
In any event, I wish you nothing but the best.
- Mike

Subject: Re: OW
A great site is gone, and Olby might just refer to it by name in a victorious Dean-esque tone now that it no longer exists. I sincerely hope the shutdown was not a financial decision as it would have been easy to get funding for it from fans. It wouldn’t surprise me if one of them would buy the site outright if offered the chance. Cox’s reasoning was a bit weak for the closure IMO, slightly higher ratings and press love are no reason to disband.

Thanks to you and J$ for the site. A lot of us are going to miss it.

===================================
Closing your site is the media equivalent of an immediate pullout of U.S. forces from Iraq. It is an admission of defeat. If you cannot maintain the site due to your other obligations, then so be it and I wish you good luck. But if it is, as you state in the RIP, due to your concern that the site has done more harm than good....then I totally disagree. The blueblogs and MSM would have promoted Olby and facilitated his success (modest as it still is) no matter if your site existed or not.
We (anti-Olby forces) have no where else to go...perhaps you could post some alternatives to your site if there is no way you will return. Is there anyone else who does what you do? If not...that is exactly my point!!!! DON'T DO THIS!!! Regardless of whatever you choose, good luck and GREAT THANKS ;)

Yes, his new contract is a blow to all of us who support decency in broadcasting. However, with people like Glenn Beck, Bill O’Reilly, Laura Ingraham, Shawn Hannity, Mark Levin, Mike Gallagher, Rush Limbaugh, Neal Bortz, Micheal Savage, Michelle Malkin, and Don Imus “OlbermannWatch†will never die. Plus, if Olbermann continues with his charades I may have to add Anderson Cooper to the stated list. Thanks for the fun and for the late night cure to the worst person in all of news broadcasting.

First, great job on the olby site. I only recently came upon it when a friend (I use the term loosely), who happens to be an olbyloon, told me about it. I started out just as a reader, saved me from having to have to watch it, one of the best things about it! Then, I jump into the posting pool, after discovering there seemed to be more olbyloons than olbydislikers, to put it nicely. You have to wonder about the people who so wildly defended him, given the crap he puts on the air and some of the crap he doesn't cover.

===================================
Subject: Re: Shutting Down Site
I have enjoyed your daily deconstructing the Misinformation Channel's (MSNBC) Countdown with Keith Monkey-in-a-Suit. I understand your stated reason for shutting down. Maybe you also are weary of fighting the good fight. But for some reason that escapes me he has been given a new four year contract and will be seen on the regular NBC news program. The fact that he is spreading like a malignant cancer is no reason to stop calling him on his lies. I would be even more inclined to inform your readers each night of his lies, misstatements, etc. But that's just me.
- J
===================================
Subject: Thank you
You and "Johnny Dollar" did a great job with the site. I can't imagine how difficult it must have been to sit there, night after night, listening to all of KO's half-truths and condescension, and slander of our government. It's just hard to believe that NBC has elevated Keith to such heights, with the new contract and new exposure. Kind of like "when good things happen to bad people".
I just read that the ratings for Brian Williams are down 570,000! That's a huge amount, and shows that people ARE leaving NBC in droves!
Anyway, I wanted to express my appreciation for the site.
- Joann
===================================
The abrupt nature of the shutdown sure was disapointing (and not particularly sensitive to the site's fans). And Robert's letter also left something to be desired... it had me thinking that the OWatch site had been hacked and that an Olbyloon was spoofing a Robert Cox shutdown letter.
If the decision to shut down was financial, I wish we would have had a chance to contribute to help the site contine.
- John
===================================
I can't say I'm happy with the manner and tone of OW's sign off, but thanks for a wonderful site. I've so enjoyed your and Mark's company! Please update me on your endeavors whenever you are able and good luck to you in all you do!

Subject: YEAH, THAT GUY REALLY MAKES ME SICK, HE GETS WORSE EVERY DAY.
Please tell me this is a hiatus of some kind.
Olbermann Watch is needed now more than ever with Keith now being elevated and lauded by the mainstream media. I’m sure you saw the recent article in Rolling Stone entitled, “Keith Olbermann: The Most Honest Man in Newsâ€. Granted, Rolling Stone is not exactly fair and balanced, but given Keith’s reputation, the title simply hilarious.
My mom and two sisters are hopelessly liberal who think Keith is “awesome†– who knows how many more misguided individuals there are out there. An Olbermann watchdog site is needed now more than ever….Keith’s assault on honest objective journalism must be stopped. Until now, Olbermann Watch was a force for good out there. You simply can’t throw in the towel right now. Please reconsider.

Subject: OlbermannWatch
I am disappointed that you've decided to discontinue OlbermannWatch. It was a major useful forum to document Keith's disinformation campaign. I understand your decision and respect it. I've noted the major crowing pro-Olbermann and liberal extremist sites are exhibiting at the moment complete with their own lies not only about the site, but your reasons for taking it down as well as what it contained. This seems to be the norm for liberals and is another reason why I find liberalism so distasteful. I wish you well and hope that someone else may take up the banner so as to not allow liberal extremists like Keith Olbermann to run unchecked.

================================
Subject: What a shame...
But I really do not believe your site was the reason Olberbut's ratings have gone up. That can be blamed on left-wing lies and the uneducated -weak minded public out there that still think Bush lied on WMD's. (but his ratings are still dismal) I wish I was not raising a family and could afford to take the time and money to setup another site like yours. Your site was important even if it did attract undue attention to OLB, it still put out the truth, and the truth is in very short supply in the media and sadly congress.
Thanks for the work you put in and thanks for the site.

THANK YOU FOR GIVING THINGS THE OLD COLLEGE
TRY! THE SITE IS IMPORTANT, VERY IMPORTANT.
I WELCOME THE RETURN OF OLBERMANN WATCH
AND HOPE THE BEST IS YET TO COME.
Robert Cox said his "suffering readers gave us the courage and determination to continue."
Mr. Cox is confused: It doesn't take 'courage' to devote yourself to trashing someone. Cowardly is more like it!
Dear Anonymous: In case you haven't noticed, trashing people is your hero Olbermann's chief occupation. You seem to just love it when he does it. But let it be done to him and you just whine like the hypocrite you are.
Mostly what I've noticed 'Brandon', is a republican led federal government that sorely needs trashing. In fact, it's our patriotic duty to speak out against government abuses and incompetence.
Sometimes the only thing that stands between us and tyranny is an ever present and vigilant media. KO understands that principal well...Fox and the rest of your side doesn't.
No, "Anonymous", what you don't seem to get is that Olbermann is a biased "news" anchor who refuses to cover any news that would cast his beloved Dems in anything but the most favorable light possible. He also refuses to cover news from a blanced angle. "vigilant" media? Not where Olbermann is concerned.
Brandon:
Yes, I GET it that you don't like Olbermann.
Do YOU get it that I don't give a damn who you like or don't like, or why.
Simple solution. Don't watch. Problem solved.
Anonymous, now that you get it, leave. Because we don't give a damn who you like and why.
And if you don't like this website dear Anonymous I suggest you don't come here. Simple as that. Problem solved, no? By the way, I don't watch his little program anymore.
Brandon: "By the way, I don't watch his little program anymore".
Well then clearly you are a moron, because only a moron would obsess over someone they don't even watch.
12:30: "Anonymous, now that you get it, leave. Because we don't give a damn who you like and why"
Actually, I DON'T get it at all because ... well, see my 'moron' comment above. I guess It's called an obsession of hatred because you just can't stand the thought that Olbermann exists at all, and that, my friend, makes you un-American.
You might want to see a phsychiatrist about that.
Why watch a show when he repeats the same thing over and over and over again? Why watch a "news" show that has no news except the Democratic talking points? What's the point exactly? Call him whatever you like, pat yourself on the back and tell yourself that you're some wonderful, brilliant genius but if you think that Olbermann is giving you a real news cast, you're the one who needs the shrink.
Obsessive Brandon again: "Why watch a show when he repeats the same thing over and over and over again?"
Point taken Brandon! And now I'll ask you a better question; Why do you obsess over a show where, in your opinion, "he repeats the same thing over and over and over again", and more to the point - one that you admit you don't even watch?
You seem to have a problem with this show's very existence, and that makes you mentally ill.
Brandonthink: "WE MUST PERSEVERE UNTIL WE KILL IT!!!!"
Because he's an insult to journalism you idiot!
Obsessive Compulsive Brandon chimes in again, as expected (he can't stay away): "Because he's an insult to journalism you idiot!"
Yes Brandon, we're all well aware that in your not so humble OPINION, "he's an insult to journalism". However, we're also all well aware that you're nothing but a right wing idealogue who can't stand the thought that there is a voice out there who just won't chime out the talking points you love.
There is no disputing the fact that Olby has twisted facts, not covered stories and refuses to provide any counterpoints to his much-biased journalism. NO OTHER program on television gets away with what he gets away with.
Brandonbull: "NO OTHER program on television gets away with what he gets away with."
ABSOLUTE BULLS**T! Almost EVERY progem on Fox 'News' gets away with more!
