Tonight should make for a hilariously spiteful hour of spin. In addition to hating everybody at NBC now, Olbermann has promised a special comment aimed at Ted Koppel regarding a disparaging comment the former NightLine host made saying that Keith represents the "death of real news".

Looks like he has ABC news in his sights now too! He just needs a sexist shot at Katie Couric, and he will have the major trifecta complete.

Olbermann tweet: "Won't waste everybody's time responding to Kurtz's hysteric source. But doesn't all this anonymous bashing sound oddly familiar? "

Yes, it sounds familiar because anyone who watches your show knows your number one source of information is the proverbial "anonymous" source. Has Keith ever once actually used a referenced source in any of his Sarah Palin attacks? I do remember times when Keith would use comments of stories as references, the one that sticks out the most is the one about some politician taking food from a crafts table. Were those sources "anonymous"?

Countdown with Keith Olbermann, were all the sources are anonymous.

I knew that a civil war would erupt, lol. But hey, if the only friend you have at work is Madcow, then you are in a lot of trouble.

By pewp_head: "Countdown with Keith Olbermann, were all the sources are anonymous".

Actually, ALL sources and most guests are from George Soros fronted groups and blogs.

Economic experts Keith Olbermann and Ezra Klein on tax cuts....except neither have any knowledge on the subject.

Seems that both Ted Koppel and Howard Kurtz wrote what to me were two well written, well thought out,accurate and fair assessments of the bloated fraud known as "El olberlardo" .

the only reason that Olberlardo's sequins speedos are all bunched up is because BOTH Mr. Koppel and Mr Kurtz's assessings were based solidly on KO's actions and lack of any journalistic credibility..both on and off camera, and also because of one other key difference especially when it comes to Ted Koppel..

Ted Koppel is an award winning TV NEWS JOURNALIST/ANCHOR..
Keith is just,well ..an ass, and a jealous one too!

Just Sayin an opinion

Hey J$,

We cannot give the "Maddow look alike" award to the effeminate Chris Hayes when she in fact looks much more like Yankees 1st baseman, Mark Teixeira, a real man's man.

And now, a special commentary on the special commentary:

And forgive me for the excessive bashing of the Deplorable one. It can't be helped.

What the fuck is Keith smoking? And can I have some of it? Is this man's ego so fragile, that he has to go to any lengths to defend himself? To smash Kopple (who is no conservative) because he merely spanked him publicly? Can't Keith just let it pass it by? Does he have to compare himself to a true journalist like Walter Concrite? List the crimes hoisted upon Murrow? Can't Keith just say, "maybe Ted has a point?" No, he's a imputant little child who stomps his foot and cry. Now he's saying he corrects his error (by killing the Bush segment from friday thus giving us Thurber). Well, Keith, your charge that FNC hosts didn't challenge Bush Jr. Well, Hannity and O'Reilly both criticized Bush plenty. Will you cop to that? No you won't. Olby also said "false religon breeds false priests", doesn't that describe MSNBC as preists for the false god Obama?

In closing this is nothing more than Keith stroking his own ego. Shameful and full of error. Someone should send him to the tub... WITHOUT DINNER!

13 days since the republican victory, Ms. Pelosi.. WHERE ARE THE JOBS?

Good night and Kiss my ass.

And now a special commentary on the special commentary on the special commentary.

Is it possible for a man to give himself a "reach around"? I say it is cause we just saw it.

Goodnight and don't forget to turn out the lights.

I'm so glad we have a man with the courage, intellectual fortitude, and integrity to say the things that need to be said to save our country! Keith Olbermann, I salute you. The country really needs to hear:

""In short, in Scott Brown we have an irresponsible, homophobic, racist, reactionary, ex-nude model, teabagging supporter of violence against woman and against politicians with whom he disagrees.""

Truth to power!!!

Anyone taking any bets on when he corrects that whopper about criticizing Bush more than Fox hosts criticized Bush? Yeah. I'm betting never as well.

Mistake in my last post. Should read "criticizing Obama more than Fox hosts criticized Bush"

See? I correct my mistakes.

This should make Olbermann's day:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/yblog_theticket/20101115/pl_yblog_theticket/almost-5-million-people-watched-sarah-palins-alaska

Will Olbermann refudiate the Oxford dictionary people now?

5 million viewers for Palin's show, and what does Olberdork average each night? About 1/10 of that? Lol.

Man that due is delusional. He thinks he's the only one who critisized the war...not Nightline, not Fox, just Bathtub boy.

Nightline had plenty of segments critical of the war. Don't we recall Nightline listing the names of all the dead soldiers? That was controversal.

He also said he critisized Obama more in one week than Fox did in GWB's eight years. Apparently he wasn't watching during Harriot Myers, Prescription Drug bill, Immigration, No Child Left Behind.

Finally, he constantly referenced journalists and reporters of the past...I goit neews for you KO: YOU'RE NOT A JOURNALIST so how dare you put yourself on their level.

Liar.

For those that didn't subject themselves to Olbermoronn's SEK theatrics, I'm working on the OlbyRobot dramatic reading.

While Krazy Keith took umbrage with Ted Koppel, the Olbsession kicked around the topic of Ted's op-ed Ellis Henican and Tammy Bruce. The Impact Segment is time better spent. It's worth noting that Ellis and Jim Pinkerton took to Skype earlier today to talk about the Kurtz piece discussed at the top of this post.

The only thing worse than Oralmann's Komment was the OlbyLoon responses on Twitter. I entered "keitholbermann special comment" in the search bar. Among the feedback (with handles removed to protect the innocent and censored where necessary):
@keitholbermann Ooh, that's gonna leave a mark! Great Special Comment.
Great Special Comment @KeithOlbermann! @msnbc #countdown
@KeithOlbermann Great Special Comment, sir. Thank you.
I think I'm going to have to show Dad that Special Comment. He likes @KeithOlbermann's comments but watches Glenn Beck. IDK.
@KeithOlbermann That special comment was truth.
@KeithOlbermann As a journalism student who loves media criticism, I very much enjoyed your Special Comment. Thanks very much. Well done.
@KeithOlbermann Sir, you have done an amazing job with your Special Comment this evening. Will there be a copy available on DK at all?
Got home just in time to catch @KeithOlbermann's special comment on the deterioration of the MSM. Glad it was him who spoke out, high-five.
@KeithOlbermann fanf***ingtastic special comment tonight sir, fanf***ingtastic!!!
As usual #countdown and #KeithOlbermann special comment was just so on point. But Hey Americans are stupid so who cares. I don't anymore.
@KeithOlbermann Good job on the special comment. Still think CNN is just as responsible for Iraq as Koppel though.
@KeithOlbermann *applauding* Excellent Special Comment tonight. Especially liked that you brought up the false debate between reality & BS.
@KeithOlbermann is a brilliant orator, gifted and passionate. His "Special Comment" tonight was compelling. However Koppel was right. #cim
@KeithOlbermann Excellent Special Comment. The "old media's" failure to search for truth re Iraq in 2002-05 is nearly as bad as the lies.
THANK YOU @KeithOlbermann for all that you do! I loved your special comment tonight. You just make SO much sense!
@keitholbermann congrats on tonite's special comment. You continue to be the most honest and erudite commentator on all TV

And Frances Martel outed herself politically by tweeting this: "@KeithOlbermann just completely revolutionized the hard news v cable news debate on the left. A must-see [link]"

OMG ... A "hissy" fit you say? Did we just witness a "hissy fit" deserving of an award? I was rolling on the floor laughing ... yes, I know that is ROTFL ... but I just had to say it. Thanks for a good laugh Keith.

When was the last time he was worked up this badly? I never could stand to watch him much ... but, I'll bet some "old timers" on Olby Watch could start a list

Thank you for the update regarding the robot special comment. When you take away his heavy grandstanding, the comments somehow appear even more delusional.

Also, the way the robot pronounces the word Nazi in such a distinct manner makes you realize just how obsessed he is with the term. For somebody bitching about Beck constantly talking about the Third Reich, he certainly seems just as attached to the concept.

Finally, it really is amazing that Olbermann somehow justifies the fact that MSNBC corrects their mistakes by the example of him not running with the Bush plagiarism comment last Friday. Apparently in Olbyland, you deserve a medal for deciding that a baseless smear isn't the best material to run with on live national television. Not only that, he justifies his example that MSNBC corrects more mistakes on Fox with a sourceless claim regarding the number of times Fox attacked Bush. You just can't make this up, say you use real sources and facts and then immediately follow that up with a baseless insult.

That link comes from Keith's own network, discussing the uproar that Ted Koppel and Nightline caused by reading the names o the war dead on the program. Perhaps Keith would like to revise his statement that Mr. Koppel ignored the war? Nah, I doubt that will ever happen. I just tweeted that link to the glorious Edward R. Olbermann, but I doubt he will respond to it.

I swear Ed Schultz, Keith Olbermann, and Chris Matthews just can't stop taking "Fat" shots at politicians and radio hosts with whom they disagree. I would really, really hope that someone exposes a viral video of Schultz at a buffet table stuffing his face at the re-election party for Harry Reid. Is this what progress is? MSHIT is getting too unbearable to watch anymore. Every time I put that channel on, these are the topics: Palin is crazy and racist, Tea party is crazy and racist, Rush is a drug addict, crazy and racist, Beck is crazy and a racist, the american people (that are NOT PROGRESSIVES) are ALL crazy and racists.

MSHIT..............(The TSA touched my junk and all I got was this lousy T-Shirt, with approval by MSNBC) Lean Forward
