Olbermann Watch, "persecuting" Keith since 2004


November 2, 2007
Countdown with Keith Olbermann - November 2, 2007

Host: Keith Olbermann

Topics/Guests:

  • WATERBOARDING AND THE AG: Richard Wolffe, Newsweek
  • "MISTER" BUSH AND "MISTER" CHENEY:
  • BARRY BONDS: The interview that got away
  • KEITH OLBERMANN'S SPECIAL APOLOGY

Another opening spiel (Broken Government [Ding!]) but who cares? Tonight brings us yet a stirring, spectacular victory for the power and influence of Olbermann Watch. It's cause for celebration on another casual Friday at Olbermann Watch.

Bathtub Boy

#5: Goundhog Day on OlbyPlanet: waterboarding again. A bombshell ABC News report that blows the lid off torture! Olby finds it "infuriating" that the AG nominee will be nominated. Clip of anti-AG Leahy (D); zero clips of pro-AG Senators, not even the (D)s. The Wolffe Man simpered and, with Olby, got in a few shots at Giuliani. Probably to make up for the Victory for Olbermann Watch, coming any minute now. Great thanks.

Next another meeting of Olbermann's Criminal Rehabilitation Program, featuring its star student, disbarred lawyer John Dean. It's Fun with Felons. Nixon! [Ding!] The criminal whined that Dems won't stand up and block the AG nomination. Since he parroted OlbySpin, he was Great Thanksed.

#4: Politics of war. Horrors: Cheney said Peru instead of Venezuela! (Blue Blog Source: Think Progress) Hey Bathman, you're one to talk. At least Cheney knows the difference between Assad and Bin Laden. (A small preview of the upcoming Victory for Olbermann Watch.) Clips of Bush, interspersed with propaganda from Merkle. Clips of Cheney, interspersed with propaganda from Merkle. Why are we getting this drivel when we could be enjoying the Victory for Olbermann Watch?

After an attack on Chris Wallace of Fixed Noise [Ding!] came #3: Politics. The Dem position on Iran is "legitimate". Clinton and Obama in a spat. Plug for Rudi getting all three "worst persons" slots. Now we know Herr Olbermoronn is going over the top to counteract the Victory for Olbermann Watch.

#2: More of the Barry Bonds interview that Keith didn't get. #1: A month's worth of oddball.

In the Media Matters Minute, we don't even care that Keith Oralmann gave all three positions to Giuliani, because we know why he did--to ameliorate the effect of his weasely convoluted apologia for lying about Rudy. In another example of something his producers forced him to do, Monkeymann did admit: "We followed the reporting of the Associated Press..." Yeah, and you ran the actual video that proved it wrong and still didn't tell the truth about it. Fat Ass backpedaled about "mitigating circumstances" (because it took the AP two days to correct the story), claimed the video shows why there was "confusion" (it didn't), and used the "fake but accurate" defense, actually claiming his reporting was "surprisingly accurate"! Finally, he forced it out: "To him, and to you, I apologize." [video courtesy of Inside Cable News]


Regardless of all the excuses and irrelevancies surrounding it, that is another Victory for Olbermann Watch!

Keith Limpermann

If it's Friday, it's our weekly assessment of Krazy Keith's masculinity. This week Monkeymann attacked Fox and other broadcasters 15 times. Olby's source (Hillary Clinton's Media Matters) criticized (MS)NBC 12 times, but again, Keithy protected his corporate masters with zero criticisms. That makes this week's Olbermann Manhood Quotient: -30 [eunuch limp].

MisterMeter

Olbermann's book The book that bears Olbermann's name sunk to #33,652 on amazon, while "Culture Warrior" is #4,948. (It's that 2-for-$25 sale!) Barnes & Noble has the OlbyTome down to #87,601; O'Reilly's book is #2,254 there,--and it's now out in paperback! Amazon lists the Culture Warrior paperback at #372, while the paperback edition of Oralmann's book is, um, well it's sitting on some hypothetical shelf, right next to a first edition of If You're Scoring at Home...Even If You're Alone. On Thursday the infamous, deplorable Keith Olbermann finished a poor third in total viewers and a distant second in the coveted, pivotal, much-beloved, critical, all-important "key demo". Tonight's MisterMeter reading: 6 [ELEVATED]

An half-ass apology and still nothing about a Clinton supporter calling for Tim Russert to be shot...The new "Murrow" shines again. LOL

It was a very, very insincere "apology." KO then used it to attack Giuliani three times in his "Worst Person in the World." Olbermann has no class.

Congrats to Olbermann Watch, but the "aplogy" was very, very lame.

Congrats to Olbermann Watch, but the "apology" was very, very lame.

Notice how angry Keith got at Chris "Monkey" Wallace for reporting that troop deaths in Iraq were at their lowest levels in almost two years. I guess Keith doesn't like hearing good news from the "unwinnable" war in Iraq.

Wow, what a cheap apology! Of course he had to bad mouth Rudy for the rest of the show. Shows what a poor loser he is. He will be on Rudy's ass even more for a while. Also will be on Bill's because he actually has TWO books on the bestsellers list now. You gotta love it! One other thing....if any other person other than his bitch Hillary said that about Russert, how badly would bathtub boy be going after them. Even you Keithy lovers out there that show your ignorance here every night have to admit that. But of course you won't............

This guy is just like BJ Clinton. Send an armed thug to the hotel lobby to drag her up to your room to perform fellatio. When she refuses and leaves, that makes BJ the victim. Same with Queef. His lie blows up in his face, so it's Giuliani's fault. What a whiny, petty individual.

Thanks to one of the loons for pointing out KO's nepotism at MSNBC.

" So Katy's dad's show "Why They Run" is now a regular MSNBC "New Series"?

Wonder how that little situation was arranged.

Maybe his daughter helped him get his foot in the network door?"

The only people confused about what Rudy actually said were Olby and Zsa-Zsa Huffpo. What a half-assed so-called "apology". More lies, as usual.

The look on his face as he forced those words, "To him, and to you, I apologize." Priceless! He paused for just a second before he said them..."I can't believe I'm saying this" he was clearly thinking.

J$ maybe you could start a small spinoff website: OlbermannApologyWatch.com

roflcopter

Or she got her strap-on into the back door?

Johnny:

Olbermoronn did not finish "a poor second once again." Olbermoronn finished a humiliating third once again behind something called CNN Special Investigations Unit.

November 2, 2007

8PM - P2+
O'Reilly Factor- 2,723,000 viewers;
CNN Special Investigations Unit - 816,000 viewers;
Countdown w/ Olbermann - 793,000 viewers.

Thanks, Tom. Corrected. And video of Olbermoronn's convoluted, self-serving "apology" added.

Maybe after this error KO and his producers won't just simply take whatever Media Matters or Think Progress (or even the wire services) throws out and repeat it on air.

Y'know, do some original research? Check the allegations. Go to original sources (like transcripts, tapes). Interview people?

It's called NEWS REPORTING.

Right, who am I kidding.

KO is little more than the leftwing equivalent of a rightwing radio talk show host.

If you believe anything either of them says, you're doing yourself a disservice.

I just watched the "apology" again. He had to be forced to do this. The whole way he went about it showed exactly how much class this bastard has. Hey Democrats, this idiot is pretty much what clear minded Americans think of when the word lilberal is used.

An earlier poster was correct. Keith can't stand reporting good news from Iraq. Its nice to know how much NBC wants America to lose a war.

Keith's apology was really lame
Olby's right and the AP's to blame
He kept a straight face
It might take first place
In Keith's "Apology Hall Of Fame"

I know this is completely off topic but I just read it and have to share.

At NewsBusters there is thread titled:

Circumcision on the Decline in Africa Due to Global Warming

"Maybe the finest example of Global Warming Derangement Syndrome to date is the claim by an Australian mammologist and paleontologist that climate change has reduced circumcision rates in Africa."

I kid you not.

Grammie

No more crewnecks in Africa due to global warming? What a mess.

Olbermann could not even tell the truth in his appology to Rudy. Olbermann said the he mis-quoted Giuliani "On this NEWSCAST". Why would he lie and call his propaganda hour a newscast.

Dora the Explorer is less childish than the host of "Countdown". I'm sure if Keith could get away with it, he'd name Giuliani Worst Person in the NFL on Sunday night during the Cowboys-Eagles game, and then give him three more selections on Monday, unless he decides to return to his oh-so mature one-way feud with Bill O'Reilly.

Not long ago KO did a lame, soft ball, interview with Valerie Plame. I notice that her book is nowhere to be seen of the best seller list (anyone's list). Obviously, the American public consider her about as important as her husband!

Anonymous once again denies reality....Fewer American men and women in uniform dying in defending freedom and democracy in Iraq is good news AND means something more beneficial for all freedom loving people everywhere.....The surge, which was declared a failure out of hand and without evidence by the leftist ruling class, is successful and making an impact. Oh well, more deaths would have been good news to the left....they did not get that news, and hense are upset....

Anon, the totalitarian islamic terrorists have killed less American troops....Does that not mean freedom is winning and opression is losing? Does that not represent a good thing? Are you so blindied by your hatred of George Bush that you cannot be glad less people were killed that are fighting for political and religious liberty?

And now onto the real reason for this post....

HA HA HA....Keith Olbermann is a pathetic person.....He ran the actual tape of Giuliani's comments and did not put the graphic of the AP quote on screen when he and Zsa Zsa repeatedly said Giuliani said "Osama." They both have no basis to claim they were only using the AP quote because they actually ran the tape and commented after that....what liars.

In addition, his claim that Giluiani's quote stands even with "Osama" removed is false because he and Zsa Zsa specifically criticized Giuliani ONLY about mentioning Osama after the clip was run....not "terrorists."

Anyone who believes Olbermann has a shread of journalistic credibility is a blind partisan. This was no apology.....this was more partisan lies to advance the leftist agenda....Congratulations to NBC for fine journalistic standards!

"Kucinich Will Introduce Privileged Resolution To Force Up Or Down Vote On Cheney Impeachment"

http://kucinich.house.gov/News/DocumentSingle.aspx?DocumentID=77847


###
Hurrah!....Finally! The American left will get what they want! A chance to expose the illegality of The Bush Administration and the removal of Darth Vader!

What will the leftist ruling class do?.....This is NOT PART OF THE SCRIPT! Remember Madam Speaker's famous line?....

“I have said it before and I will say it again: Impeachment is off the table.”

What is a rabid, foaming at the mouth, leftist to do? These criminals must be stopped, but the power structure is protecting the frauds and liars?

Oh no!

Will radical leftist partisan Keith Olbermann come to the rescue with a SPECIAL COMMENT this week repeating his demand to the executives to resign? Will he go off the HRC reservation and support an impeachment debate?

Oh dear....the leftist ruling elite will have to vote and declare support or nonsupport for the legality of Cheney's actions! Their past rhetoric seems to suggest they have to vote for impeachment (words like "unconstituional" make it hard to say impeachment is not appropriate)....but the "Hillary for President" script demands otherwise.....

What to do, what to do?....

And still, Bush awaits for an answer from the leftist ruling elite on war funding.

STOP THE WAR.....CUT THE FUNDS NOW!
STOP THE CRIMINALS.....IMPEACH BUSH AND CHENEY NOW!

And this is my post today, the 1,648th day since the declaration of Mission Accomplished in Iraq.....

I am cee, good night and good luck.

"I'd tell you that the Democrats are talking a good game, but they're not even doing that. Everybody in Congress has to understand something: If they continue to fund this war, it's not just the President who owns it. They own it, too." Sgt. Liam Madden

"There were a few tense moments, however, including an encounter involving Joshua Sparling, 25, who was on crutches and who said he was a corporal with the 82nd Airborne Division and lost his right leg below the knee in Ramadi, Iraq. Mr. Sparling spoke at a smaller rally held earlier in the day at the United States Navy Memorial, and voiced his support for the administration's policies in Iraq. Later, as antiwar protesters passed where he and his group were standing, words were exchanged and one of the antiwar protestors spit at the ground near Mr. Sparling; he spit back." NYT 1/28/07

"I think the Vietnamese are better off in Vietnam," George McGovern - NEWSWEEK

"Lefties: Leave these pathetic drowning rats alone to stew in each other's juices. Get yourselves out in the street and fight this criminal administration in ways that really mean something, and that are noted by more than a handful of keyboard heroes!" Sir Loin of Beef

"American liberals need to face these truths: The demand for self-government was and remains strong in Iraq despite all our mistakes and the violent efforts of al Qaeda, Sunni insurgents and Shiite militias to disrupt it." DEMOCRAT Bob Kerrey

"If we end up saying that because these people are committing these acts of terrorism in Iraq or Afghanistan, that we shouldn't have done the removal of Saddam or the removal of the Taliban, then we are making a fundamental mistake about our own future, about security, about the values we should be defending in the world." TONY BLAIR

"You can't bring the troops home if you give George Bush $100 billion to wage this war. You're not supporting them. You're keeping them in harm's way." CINDY SHEEHAN

"There is no doubt ... that Al Qaeda is operating in Iraq. There is no doubt that we've had to take very strong measures against them. And there is no doubt that the Iraqi security forces have got to be strong enough to be able to withstand not just the violence that has been between the Sunni and the Shia population and the Sunni insurgency, but also Al Qaeda itself." GORDON BROWN

"People of America: the world is following your news in regards to your invasion of Iraq, for people have recently come to know that, after several years of tragedies of this war, the vast majority of you want it stopped. Thus, you elected the Democratic Party for this purpose, but the Democrats haven't made a move worth mentioning. On the contrary, they continue to agree to the spending of tens of billions to continue the killing and war there." OSAMA BIN LADEN

"Al Qaeda really hurt us, but not as much as Rupert Murdoch has hurt us, particularly in the case of Fox News. Fox News is worse than Al Qaeda--worse for our society. It's as dangerous as the Ku Klux Klan ever was."
KEITH OLBERMANN

"Thinking such as your's is a cancer on our nation that needs to be cut out." MIKE posted 10/4/07 7:02PM

Excellent job, Katy. You deserve the Nobel Prize for poetry.

The petulant man-child's "apology" was half-hearted at best. When will his loyal minions realize he's a sloppy, lazy "journalist." He could hardly wait to get his micophone off last night and get away from his desk. Guess it just about killed him to have to says he's sorry.

It will be interesting to see his ratings for Friday since some viewers just tuned in to see the apology? I did. Honestly, I believe if he thought he could increase numbers that way he'd apologize every night.

One of the fangirl sites is calling the apology his "gracious retraction." When will reality set in for these loons?

The fact that his loyal viewers didn't catch the discrepancy between what he and Huffington said and the actual tape in front of them says they blindly follow.

So Keith and Huff had long segment on what Giuliani didn't say and we get a cheap, low class and childish apology.
The man can even fuss up to his own mistakes like an adult.
Then he spends hours on a topic that was semi-interesting a year ago, water boarding.
With all that's going on in the world Keith pics water boarding, attacking the president and personnel attacks on Giuliani, as his nightly topics.
Keith's show is not and never has been real news, to me it satire, without the laughter.
When I think about Keith's show I would have to lump him in with Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert.
Keith's show and ratings seriously can't be compared to CNN or Fox. It has to put in it's correct category with The Daily Show and Colbert Report.

The Olbyloons DO blindly follow Olbermann. they lap up every word of what HuffPost, Daily Kos, Media Matters and the rest say as if it was the gospel, and never once question it's authenticity. Then they have the nerve to complain about Fox? But that just shows you their disconnect from the real world and why they've lost the last 2 elections.

And there's no doubt how Robert Tur got his series picked up by MSNBC: he pimped his daughter out to save his floundering career and rescue his precarious financial situation.

you said it Joe. Olbermutt's show is not "news" at
all, it's just Bush and Republican bashing. You will never hear a bad thing about Dems. on his joke news hour. And he actually has the balls to say that Fox News is a station that is run by right
wingers. Right, you 4 eyed freak, there's no sense of biased opinions on M-mess NBC. Lay off the litltle blue pill dude, you're going crazy.

Wasn't Valerie Plame on Bill Maher's show last night? I can't believe she is still pimping her book of pathetic fairy tales.

Oh dear, mental midget claims as fact the conspiracy touted by Mr and Mrs. Joe Wilson that The Bush administration atrgeted her to silence him.....Evidence please?

Dear mental midget swallows the pathetic partisan Joe Wilson's line while there still is no evidence such a plan was hatched....In fact, the "players" have never been shown to have conspired with the deare Scooter Libby never even being charged with leaking classified information....he was only convicted of procedural crimes dealing with the investigation....

How about some proof other than the word of someone who intends to make money on the issue by writing a book, mental midget....Also....what about the fact that Mr. Armitage was Novack's source and he seems like an unlikely part of a Bush/Cheney conspiracy?

Mental midget once again shows his stupidity.....And the fact that Plame's novel is languishing is testiment that her fairy tales only concern partisan hacks like you and Keith Olbermann.

Move on, mm.....Plamegate failed as did your leftist ruling class attempt at stopping the AG nominee, as will the impeachment push next week as will changing the course in Iraq, as will SCHIP demagoguery....

Oh, and what about HRC?.....she had a really good week, heh mental midget?

I cross-posted this at Inside Cable News:

The “apology” does not address the main issue:

KO used the AP as a source without acknowledgment, but he did show the recording of what Rudy said. Therefore, I do not see how he can claim anything against AP: He was pretending to use the video as his source.

And, I do not see what relevance there is to how long it took AP to correct their mistake, nor is there any “confusion” nor should KO have apologized for the AP.

"You'd like to think Countdown isn't news, but of course it is. It's just news you don't want to hear.
The waterboarding segment was excellent."
"And Johnny 2 Cents making excuses for Cheney not knowing the difference between Peru and Venezuela was revealing to say the least."
Posted by: Why don't you think

It's news I don't want to hear every night over and over again.
If Keith is repeating it every night then it's not news it's an agenda. A tired one at that.

The waterboarding segment was a year to late.
How about Keith do a segment on our enemies cutting off innocent people's heads and taping it so their loves ones can see it.
And he's complaining about waterboarding!?

And Cheney saying Peru and not Venezuela was funny.
That's why The Daily Show, Colbert Report and Keith gave it more time then it deserved.

Because Keith is really satire and not news.

KO was attempting to cover his incredibly big ass with that so-called apology. Taking that literally or figuratively, it's an impossible job.
MSM, you're absolutely right. The AP error had nothing to do with KO and AH misquoting RG when all he had to do was look at the video. Wasn't his objection to the quote on the video to begin with? Passing it off on AP was lame. Even trying to make AP share the blame with him is cowardly. A true journalist would have caught the AP error and acknowledged that. Sloppy work all around.

Can you imagine if the news writers at NBC and MSNBC go on strike, as they are threatening to do at CBS and ABC. KO's followers repeatedly say he writes all of Countdown, which can't be true. Sometimes he obviously doesn't even read the copy before the show as he makes mistakes going into it cold.; it looks like a giant surprise to him. So what will he do if there's no one there to write for him?

"How about Keith do a segment on our enemies cutting off innocent people's heads and taping it so their loves ones can see it.
And he's complaining about waterboarding!?"

<{*}[+] According to the loony left, the terrorists are the victims. The orange faced prick wouldn't dream of showing one of the videos of those savages taking a machete to a defenseless reporters throat. Never happen on Planet Olby!

You idiots are always wrong about EVERYTHING, which makes you the best nonintentional comedians going !


Posted by: Why don't you think at November 3, 2007 10:37 AM


What ever you do, keep getting your *news* from Maher. It shows in your posts. I hear he had to apologise to the loony left for throwing some of them off his comedy show. Too damn funny!

Having idiots like Olby on the left is the best thing that ever happened to the right.

"When the Senior Bush Official had himself water-boarded and found the practice "terrifying" and tortuous and summarily fired, THAT didn't open your eyes?"
Posted by: Why don't you think at

And that's the problem with how Keith reports the story.
He is making out to be that Senior Bush official was fired because of his findings.
Was he? Or do you believe everything he media says?
Maybe if Keith had the Senior Bush official on his show that would have been a good segment.

But the way the story was done by Keith just shows his program isn't hard hitting news at all.

Congrats to those at Olbywatch for allowing the truth about "The Deplorable One" to incubate in this important public forum.

News NBC has a new brand...
Al Jazeera @ 30 Rock.

But Clearly, not everyone there is a nincompoop as evidenced by the forced fake apology directive. Someone above the boy-child abrams made the call to cut off what is left off of Olby's manhood.

Little Feechie

Tony Snow received a Freedom of Speech Award several weeks ago from The Media Institute.

His acceptance speech is the best essay I have ever read on the condition of the media industry and the underlying causes.

It is well worth, I think, the five or so minutes it takes to read.

http://www.mediainstitute.org/banquet2007/speeches/snow_20071016.pdf

Sorry, no excerpts. It is in PDF and won't copy.

Grammie

Is there any doubt that Olbermann is a genuine 24 karat phoney??

First he issues a so-called apology to Mayor Giuliani, then goes and declares that Giuliani is the third, second and the first "Worst Person In The World".

Just how much more childish and petulant can one get??

FrankTheTank, hereafter to be FTT for me b/c I don't know how to type, just give it a week or two and I have no doubt that he will sink even lower.

Olbermann, take heed:
HERALD SUN ( Austrailia's biggest selling paper) THERE is a reason Iraq has almost disappeared as an election issue. Here it is: The battle is actually over. Iraq has been won.

I know this will seem to many of you an insane claim. Ridiculous!

After all, haven’t you read countless stories that Iraq is a “disaster”, turned by a “civil war” into a “killing field”?

Didn’t Labor leader Kevin Rudd, in one of his few campaign references to Iraq, say it was the “greatest . . . national security policy disaster that our country has seen since Vietnam”?

You have. And you have been misled.

Here is just the latest underreported news, out this week.

Just 27 American soldiers were killed in action in Iraq in October—the lowest monthly figure since March last year. (This is a provisional figure and may alter over the next week.)

The number of Iraqi civilians killed last month—mostly by Islamist and fascist terrorists—was around 760, according to Iraqi Government sources. That is still tragically high, but the monthly toll has plummeted since January’s grim total of 1990.

What measures of success do critics of Iraq’s liberation now demand?

Violence is falling fast. Al Qaida has been crippled. The Shiites, Kurds and Marsh Arabs no longer face genocide.

What’s more, the country has stayed unified. The majority now rules. Despite that, minority Sunni leaders are co-operating in government with Shiite ones. There is no civil war. The Kurds have not broken away. Iran has not turned Iraq into its puppet.

And the country’s institutions are getting stronger. The Iraqi army is now at full strength, at least in numbers. The country has a vigorous media. A democratic constitution has been adopted and backed by a popular vote. Election after election has Iraqis turning up in their millions.

Add it all up. Iraq not only remains a democracy, but shows no sign of collapse. I repeat: the battle for a free Iraq has been won.

"You idiots are always wrong about EVERYTHING, which makes you the best nonintentional comedians going !"

Yes Folks! This comes from a person who takes many drugs and belives everything from the mouth of a man that runs headfirst into Subway polls.

Need we say more?

Yes! I can picture it now! Back in the day when the doctor came after the birth of WDYT and said to his Mom & Dad.

Congratulations Mr. & Ms. WDYT!

It's Meatloaf!

GEORGE BUSH! Stop the war on drugs and keep you're hands off WDYT's stash!


Why did KO wait till Friday, the night when his ratings are usually the lowest, to give his apology? Just saying . . .

Ed Said: "Having idiots like Olby on the left is the best thing that ever happened to the right."

Amen

Not that I care; but I do enjoy rattling cages on both sides of the aisle.

As for you insecure idiots...

Be sure to pay homage to the patron saint of perpetuating idiocy.

If the writers go on strike, will MSNBC have to replace CircleJerk with Keith Olbermann with reality programming?

I'm sure KO would get a hoot out of that one too, if he lowered himself to go to this site.

Olbermann doesn't have to visit this site in order to shoot his mouth off at his critics.

He's got syncophants who do that for him.

I'd be surprised i he got a hoot out of anything here. Nothing very enlightening or clever by the FRWRs. As usual.

1:49, we are sure that Olby visits this site. His ego, vanity and insecurity know no bounds. He knows every word that is written about him on the Internet.

Gee, I wonder what Olby's fellow Football Night in America analysts think about his latest hate-filled, slanderous outburst against Giuliani during the non-apology? Oh, I forgot - they already can't stand Olbytard. It's just another day for them.

I hope Cris is ready to unload on Olby tonight - that is, if Olby has the guts to show up for work. Maybe he's sulking in the tub after reading all of the well-earned abuse being hurled at him.

As part of its "Green Week" NBC plans to dim the lights tonight during its airing of "Football Night in America" and during its halftime show of the Cowboys-Eagles game to show the network's commitment to advancing awareness of global warming.

As much problem as I've had with NBC News and the direction its taken in the past four years, all is forgiven with the network if someone in the control room for NBC Sports decides to dim the lights tonight while Keith is talking. If they dim the sound too I'll even go stock up on GE energy-saving fluorescent light bulbs.

Having fans is something you would know nothing about.
Staying up drunk all night, now there you are an expert !

I sure hope you don't go out in public braggin you're an olbyloon. You get knocked out if you did that around here!

Couple of Random Thoughts...actually 3

1st - Fairness Doctrine applies to over the air TV and Radio, not cable. Reason being is that airwaves belong to the public and broadcasters are charged to serve the "public interest convenience and necessity" as defined by the FCC.

Cable finks like Olbermann would not be held to this standard, in the unlikely event it was adopted.

2nd - Brian Williams did a great job on Saturday Night Live. He must hold his noze every time he appears on Olby's show to prop up the leftist hack.

3rd - NBC News is Al Jazeera @ 30 Rock.

12:10: One dim bulb deserves another. Good suggestion. Cut the lights and the mic on Olby as a public service to the nation.

FNA-LF, I thought the Fairness Doctrine only applied to radio?

By over the air TV exactly what are you talking about. Does that mean stations that are available without cable, such as major networks and PBS were subject to the Fairness Doctrine in the past.

People out of the public spotlight don't have "fans" they have friends.

That's likely to be something you know nothing about.

However, you sure have the sycophant/groupie stuff down pat... :D

Not only did the Fairness Doctrine only apply to broadcast (and not cable or satellite), as I recall the FD also did not apply to news programming! But that was then and this is now. There's nothing stopping the Feds from making a new Fairness Doctrine that would encompass broadcast, cable, satellite, news, whatever they want. Nothing other than the constitution, anyhow.

As much as I hate to agree with a liberal, I believe Alan Colmes is correct: When the feds begin regulating talk radio (and news analysis/opinion in general), then stations will go out of the opinion business. Use of public or private airwaves will be restricted for discourse about politics or government.

I'm sure if the Dems were successful at censorship that Olby would be unscathed even though he never presents opposing viewpoints. It doesn't matter that Fox presents opposing viewpoints; the Dems don't like to hear any conservative voices at all. Dems=Punks.

The promo I just heard: Critics say Keith Olbermann knows how to do news right: real news, real honest.

If NBC is willing to sell this liar's spinfest as legitimate news, then the network mothership has no credibility whatsoever. This lack of ethical standards probably helped spawn the lying, slanderous non-apology that Olby spewed on Friday.

Grammie:

J$ is correct. Traditional free over the air TV and Radio frequencies used to be impacted by the FD.

Whether or not they are carried on cable or satellite is not a factor.

The Fairness Doctrine is Dead on Arrival...

It will have little to NO support in Congress. Congress is not going to bite the hand that feeds them when they go home to their home television markets.

Kerry is blowing smoke.

Thanks to both for the answers.

I agree that they don't have much chance of success at all.

Librul Hypocrisy? Indeed

Costas must be reading Olby Watch: He mentions dim bulbs on the SNF set.

He's having to put up with the dimmest bulb of all: Keith olbermann. Stick a fork in him, he's done.

Costas said it's "Green Week" for NBC...wonder if Olby will go along with it on The Hour of Spin. Because if he tries to really play it up and blame Bush for climate change, somebody should play the tape from tonight of him and Collingsworth giggling uncontrollably at how silly it was to dim the lights. More do as I say, not as I do.

Seig Heil, Keith!

This sounds like a good conservative argument:

Bush caused a bunch of people move out of New Orleans, one of the big a/c users in the country.

I think what Bush has done qualifies as a little more than just dimming a few lights for a few minutes...........

Why are you quoting what amounts to a paid political advertisement Dip Shit? A Condi-site promo! What crap! But then you've never added anything worth a pile of frost covered manure.

Where's your "nbc/olbermahn" list, ffarry?

Not my job to do your work Dipshit. You don't even do your own. Thank God you're not on the right side!

Since the USA is the largest producers of co2 in the world, , please inform us what George Bush has done in the past 7 years to help the climate change crisis.

> Where's your 'nbc/olbermahn' list?

I thought the Climate Change people said that not only is it happening, it's irreversable. What good would it do to try to change something that can't be changed?

Duh! It stops doing more damage. What a freaking piece of work.

How's that 'nbc/olbermahn conrtibutions' list coming, 'ffarry?'

Stop being a lazy, welfare-swizilling, double-dipping fat ass, Dipshit. I'm tired of my tax dollars going to support your boozing and drugging, and I'm not going to do your work.

Way to put your foot in your ass, 'llarry.'

Don't know, but it sounds like I just kicked your ass pretty damn good, Dipshit.

The dim-lights stunt that NBC pulled last night has to be the most stupid thing they have thought of since allowing Olby on the air in the first place. Really stupid. Now can we please have our football back, you idiotic libnuts at 30 Rock? It's bad enough that you allowed moonbat Olby to appear on the broadcast as your socialist news network mascot, now this. NBC is run by morons.

Oh yeah, Mr. Why Don't You Think, if you truely believe in global warming then sell your car you faggot. Quit polluting the environment. Walk it like ya talk it gay boy.

You are just another mouthy-assed, whining liberal who would bitch if Zarqawi cut your head off with a dirty knife. You are just like O'Lieyy and SLOB wishing death on someone else meaning they want someone else
