The New York Post's Page Six is dishing on Keith Olbermann's overtures to porn star and former California Gubernatorial candidate Mary Carey. In a recent interview with the Radio Chick on FREE-FM, Carey gives Keith a lesson in why you never...ever...ever...drunk-dial a porn star.
What caught our eye was this...
Olbermann's rep insisted it was Carey who called him. Olbermann had her as a guest on his show in 2003 when she was running for governor of California. "It's a well-documented fact that Keith is off the market," the flack added."
As with all OlbySpin, this is a "reader beware" statement. It sounds like KO wants you to believe that (a) he had Carey on as a guest many years ago; (b) there was a legitimate news angle to her appearance.
Did anyone think Olbermann Watch was going to let Keith get away with that whopper?
Let's take a quick review down memory lane...
Mary Carey did appear on Countdown with Keith Olbermann in 2003 and Keith reported on her again on Countdown in the fall of 2003. So that part is true. As for the rest...
On Countdown with Keith Olbermann for June 15, 2005 Keith not only interviewed Mary Carey but she was that days "Number One" story. Keith also performed "Mary Carey Puppet Theater" in another segment that night. Keith interview Carey about her appearance at a political fundraiser hosted by the National Republican Congressional Committee and the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
Olbermann Watch mentioned Mary Carey's appearance here and here.
A week later Keith was in California to appear on The Tonight Show and had Mary Carey in the NBC/CNBC Los Angeles studio on Countdown with Keith Olbermann for June 21, 2005. This time she was there to talk about her run for lieutenant governor of California.
You can watch the entire interview on MSNBC.com
You can view 40 photos of Mary Carey at the studio including several with Keith Olbermann and others with Mary's porn star pal Tawny Roberts.
You will note that towards the end of the interview Mary Carey reminds Keith of their plans to watch the basketball game that night. That game would be Detroit v. San Antonio in the 2005 NBA Finals. Hence, Carey wearing (sortof) a Detroit Pistons jersey. In other words, while he was in Los Angeles Keith had a date with Mary Carey to watch the NBA Finals in L.A.
Keith failed to mention his date with Mary Carey when he posted on his blog about his trip to Los Angeles except a vague allusion to his private eight minutes with Mary Carey. Based on previous reports in The New York Post, "eight minutes" might be a bit of an exaggeration.
Keith interviewed Mary Carey again on Countdown with Keith Olbermann for May 3, 2006 to help her promote, of all things, a show on Fox Cable? Not surprisingly the show is about four American porn stars.

Olbermann Watch reported on this here
Keith also mentioned Mary Carey on Countdown with Keith Olbermann for December 11, 2006
Imagine, Your job is to be Keith Olbermann's flak, er hack, er flunky, er stooge.
Oh, but Keith never lies Bob!!! Just when he's breathing. You might want to forward that to the NY Post. I think they might be interested in knowing he's been caught in yet another lie.
I already sent Richard Johnson of PageSix an email. They've linked/mentioned Olbermann Watch before. Let's see if they run another bit about it tomorrow.
God I love this site!
Keep us posted on Page Six response.
According to her bio on Wikipedia Mary Carey is 26 years old. Doesn't that make her a little old for Olby?
Hmm. The Olbyloons haven't linked to this article yet on their little fan sites. Wonder why?
Olbermann's butt boy Brian Setzer at TVNewser hasn't linked to it either. I bet if the same quote was about oh, say someone at Fox, he'd be all over it like white on rice.
Wait, the nutcases at KO.org have commented but of course it's the usual, expected excuses from them, i.e, who'd believe a porn star kind of crap. Screw the NY Post rants they do so well. But why aren't they asking themselves why Keith thought she was a reputable enough guest to have her on his show repeatedly?
I just want to be clear here. I am not making any kind of moral judgment about Mary Carey or Keith's apparent interest in her - just wondering why KO would have his people put out a statement that is so obviously misleading. Keith is hardly the only cable news host to invite Mary Carey on his show (Cavuto and O'Reilly come to mind). Hell, even Jay Leno had her on The Tonight Show.
And for the record...when Keith first interview Mary Carey it was 2003 so she would have been 22 or 23 if Wikipedia has her current age right.
But Bob, there’s more. Go to Bloggermann and read Olbermann’s own words teasing us about his 8 min alone with Mary Carey. Scroll down to June 22, 2005 with a link to KO/MC video.
Yep, 8 minutes. I guess that’s more than enough time for Quick Draw McAnchormann.

And there’s a bonus Nazi reference. We’ve struck gold.
ooops - I didn't see your entire entry - sorry.
But 8 min is probably an exaggeration.
Thanks Robert for clarification & links.
"...just wondering why KO would have his people put out a statement that is so obviously misleading." Good question. They did mention "Keith is off the market" (translation: I'm pushing 50 and I finally have a steady girlfriend, see I'm not a loser!).
From what is posted around the internet and what he himself has said, he doesn't have much luck with the ladies. I think he is pissing off so many people, that they are actively digging for dirt, but because his sex life seems so "lifeless" these little gossip pieces don't seem all that scandalous. What is scandalous is that he gave 12+ minutes of cable-tv face time to a very attractive porn star and he couldn't parlay that into a "lay."
Losers say what.
I hope Carey has that voicemail saved.
It may be well-documented that he has a live-in honey, but as far as being off the market, I doubt it. Olby will be Olby. So we hear.
I kid you not, headline from Olbermann's Blog "The News Hole"
Vote for Your 'Internets Superstar' (non-porn)

I think we can safely say, he got "non-porn" from Ms. Carey.
Which takes more time? Olbermann pleasuring a woman or one of his special comments?
to think you guys closed down - what if you weren't here to cover one of Olby's finest moments
thank god OW is back
Maybe Mary Carey called him to have him in one of her movies? He's showing up everywhere else.
Title ideas?
By the way Mary has quite the interesting web page, and my Spce Page if you want to be her friend.
Someone should clue her in that the Loons say she's lying. Maybe she'll release the audio tape if she's still got it.
I can't wait til Mark Levin gets a hold of this story. He'll have a whole show just on this topic if he wanted to.
Keith got stiffed by porn star Miss Carey
When asked how small she'll say "Very"
Turned down by a slut
That won't crack his nut
Twelve minutes of airtime for nary
Not surprising about Olby and his abuse of females.NBC as a company has a history of
hiring men who beat assault and rape women.
Look no further than OJ,Marv Albert,Tucker,Imus
Donny D.,David Gregory etc. and now olby.
