Perhaps Olbermann's absence from these special reports has nothing to do with his ego and more to do with the fact that, from a presenting legitimate news standpoint, it's better for Cenk Uygur to anchor them.

Which ain't saying much.

Even though KO is the head of Current's News Dept.? Who does KO answer to besides Al Gore?

We can always count on Old McFatAss to be a disgruntled crank. Maybe he's having girl problems again.

"Even though KO is the head of Current's News Dept.? Who does KO answer to besides Al Gore?"

I know this is difficult for you to understand MKDAWUSS, but just because you're given a job doesn't mean you're qualified for it.

Earning your Comm Studies degree at Ag School, collecting baseball cards, reading liberal blogs and screaming into a microphone doesn't qualify you for the title of "Chief News Officer."

Maybe that's the problem. Al Gore wants GOP primary coverage, something that could only help Current's attempt to be a legitimate news outlet, and the "Chief News Officer," who has ZERO experience running a news division (no, telling Phil Griffin what to do doesn't count) said "fuck that."

Thanks for putting that in perspective Carlos.

"Meanwhile, while Twittermann has exploded at news articles that were unfavorable toward his highness, he has remained uncharacteristically silent since this piece hit the web. Things that make you go: hmmmmmm."

Kind of like John Gibson's "Bathtub Boy" story, isn't it? I have yet to see an actual denial about that come from Olbermann's mouth. Not the bathtub part mind you, but the whole "I had to do Keith's job for him" part.

BTW MKDAWUSS, do you still stand by your statement that John Gibson is the Bathtub Boy? Or has the reality set in that Olbermann would rather sit at home instead of do his job?

Maybe THAT'S what MKDAWUSS was trying to tell us! Olbermann only answers to Al Gore, Al Gore wants GOP Primary coverage, Olbermann doesn't, so it's back to the proverbial bathtub!

Carlos just solved the puzzle for everyone! Who says MKDAWUSS just panders to Olbermann?

In case you're not keeping score at home, this is the fourth of five topics (and the other was the Christmas video) featuring a criticism of Olbermann that MKDAWUSS has failed to acknowledge. All MKDAWUSS does now is jump on comments about Bill "The only things I know about BillO are what Keith tells me" O'Reilly and John "The Real Bathtub Boy according to me" Gibson or just cherry picks the comments of others. I think that speaks for itself.

Anyway, next time MKDAWUSS lectures people on class remember he said this to his sister on Facebook when she asked him if he had a good Christmas:

"It was OK. The weeks before were a lot more enjoyable (and memorable), though. Nothing against the people I spent Christmas with, however."

Real classy Carlos.

It's lights out for Current TV
Pink slips, no electricity
His studio is dark
Another skid mark
On Keith's quest to obscurity

I love the comments accompanying that NTY article. A few revolve around the whole "you can't compare ratings" crap that MKDAWUSS was pedaling six months ago.

Olbermann was supposed to be a flagship for Current to pull them out of the gutter. Not only has Current made zero progress climbing up, spats like this indicate it's getting worse. Didn't this version of Countdown start off with 125,000 viewers? Now it's down to 46,000? And let's keep in mind that's a number from early September if I recall correctly.

He was a boost to MSNBC 10 years ago because back then his status as a certified jackass wasn't solidified. I said that to MKDAWUSS eight months ago but since it was some negative about his hero he didn't listen.

These days his reputation precedes him and stories like this only solidify it.

The man has no one to blame but himself. Maybe I'm different from everyone else but if I was on what could be my last chance I'd play a little ball instead of picking another fight.

Krazy Keith has broken his silence after waiting over 24 hours to think up a reply. The one he came up with is remarkably insubstantial. Adding update to main article now.

What else was he supposed to say? It was an unsubstantiated hit piece filled with anonymous sources, who, by default have no credibility, especially when they exist only to repeat and regurgitate what the commentator is asserting. How many of these "insider rumors" that are really hit pieces have ended up being true?

Kinda sounds like Media Matters, dontcha think?

"...How many of these 'insider rumors' that are really hit pieces have ended up being true?"

The one about him being an ass at ESPN was true.

The one about him being an ass at MSNBC was true.

The one about him being an ass at Fox Sports was true.

The one about him being an ass at MSNBC (again) was true.

You were saying?

But you keep pretending that Keith Olbermann hasn't created a pattern of bridge burning everywhere he's been. It's incredible the amount of s*** you ignore to keep Olbermann on a pedestal.

cj, always remember that WUSS's idol, The False Murrow, was such a coward that he wouldn't interview Newt Gingrich at the 2008 RNC and he wouldn't interview Michelle Bachmann after her defeat of Ed "Wrong Way" Schultzhead's pick Tarryl Clark. He just waited until they were off the air and then launched into his smearbag.

"What else was he supposed to say?..."

He could've explained the confusion regarding what he said on Dec. 22 and the schedule changes since then.

He could've explained why he's not doing these special reports, past and future.

He could've explained why he removed the title of "Chief News Officer" from his Twitter page.

I guess, like you, he just read what he wanted to read.

"cj, always remember that WUSS's idol, The False Murrow, was such a coward that he wouldn't interview Newt Gingrich at the 2008 RNC and he wouldn't interview Michelle Bachmann after her defeat of Ed "Wrong Way" Schultzhead's pick Tarryl Clark. He just waited until they were off the air and then launched into his smearbag."

Actually, if I recall, Olbermann didn't even have the balls to go to the 2008 RNC. I forgot what the excuse was.

he sent out a "live feed" to an M.S.S.R. reporter down on the floor to interview Gingrich then in return sent it back up to NYC. There was no interaction whatsoever between The False Murrow and Newt.

I have a bad feeling that the OlbyLoons will pressure Current TV into having Krazy Keith anchor coverage of later primaries and election night. As usual, I'd like to be wrong.

Thing is that Algore knew what he was getting. He already knew Olby was a hack. If Gore thought that Keith was going to do real news, then they are both delusional.

"Thing is that Algore knew what he was getting. He already knew Olby was a hack. If Gore thought that Keith was going to do real news, then they are both delusional."

Liberals think"real news" is defined as what they want to hear.

If you don't believe me look at MKDAWUSS.

"Liberals think"real news" is defined as what they want to hear."

Thats true, but when their "real news" is 100% pure progressive/marxist propaganda ripped and read from Media Matters, Think Progress, Democratic Underground, Center for American Progress, etc, etc, that makes the False Murrow the Propaganda Minister for the Obama Regime.

Current TV: News for Marxists, everyone else in the real world says "What the Hell is Current TV? Never heard of it".

Here's a little gem from Rachel. She said with a straight (no pun) face that FNC goal is to elect a republican president and that MSNBC has "no political objective".

Even though the cancer has been alimented from 30 Rock, the disease marches on.

Since the deplorable one is doing a "best of" show tonight. I'm doing my own Worst Person in the world.

So, like when that MP3 player you wanted sold out online after 20 minutes on sale (F U Newegg.com).... IT'S THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD!!!!!

Gold: Alan Colmes- It seems on FNC today, Mr. Colmes attacked Rick Santorum for having "nutty" ideas. Like playing with his still born son, to show his children that he was real. I guess Alan would have pefered that Mrs. Santorum would have a abortion.

How dispicable is this man? To attack a man for the death of a infant son. All for the glory of Obama. I'm shocked that he still has a job at FNC. If I were Roger Alies, Alan would be packing his boxes, escorted by security out of the building. What scum.

http://www.breitbart.tv/alan-colmes-loses-it-when-called-out-for-mocking-santorum-miscarriage/

Don't expect Olby to do this, so I did. Back to the grind tomorrow.

So according to Olbermann there WON'T be any Countdown tonight, which, coincidentally, is what the article MKDAWUSS labeled a "hit piece" said.

Oops.

More angst from Olbywan. Having man issues with The Goracle. They eat their own.

http://tinyurl.com/87zwdtd

Wow! Olby must be stuck in the tub.

Well, last night I did my Worst Person. Tonight, my BEST PERSON IN THE WORLD!

GOLD!!!!!!!: Rick Santorum- For his statement about welfare. I'm sure Keith will hop on this like Markos likes to hop into a San Fransisco bath house. But it's shows the simple difference between liberals and conservatives.

Liberals ask "How can we help (insert social group/Minority/voting block here) people".

We ask "How can we help all people".

It's people like Al, Keith, Ed, Rachel, Rev. Al, Cerk, Chris that are the real racists.

And back to the grind tomorrow. Unless Olby is still stuck in the tub.

Keiths latest impending flameout, and the reactions of the twits who follow and adore him on twitter make me recall the of the words of that true great American: Larry the cable guy " now that righ there is funny ... i dont care who you are"
And to further the humor twitterman lags rachel ray by 89,000 twitter followers at last count. Bt then again people like her and actually watch her show
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA i just cant stop laughing.

Wonder if this will get Eric a nod on Worsts tomorrow? I mean if Man on Fan can put FNC up for rounding up numbers, Mr. Holder and the DOJ deserve it for there total disregaurd for the truth!

But since it's about Voter ID ( a cause that both Olby and Holder are against), don't count on it.

It seems that Olby isn't back on the air yet and he's already batting a zero!

At this time, Santorum is tied with Romney.

Look! HuffPoo posted a story about why FatAss was absent from the prestigious (Har!) CurrentTV anchor chair during Iowa caucus coverage. Countdown to Oblivion. AOL editors posted this story on their portal, calling Herr Blubbermann a "famed cable anchor". No, it's "infamous, deplorable", but you have to consider the source - Arianna OnLine.

News Flash: Sordid update from the Hollywood Reporter. You'd better sit down: Olby at odds with his management and acting out. Shocka!

http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/keith-olbermann-current-tv-gop-primary-278050

1. Taking himself off TV is the best move Olbermann's made in years.

2. Define "acceptable work conditions." Did the Current cafeteria run out of ketchup packets?

3. The phrase "Telling half the story is wrong" should be framed for future use.

“I was not given a legitimate opportunity to host under acceptable conditions,”

I would absolutely love to hear the explanation to what actually qualifies to host his propaganda short under "acceptable conditions". And what exactly are the "UNACCEPTABLE conditions"?

Like when you should have stayed at ESPN Radio and forget about that news thing (today is the 20th anniversary of ESPN Radio Starring Keith Olbermann, when he was just a dick, not a big dick like he's now.).... IT'S THE RETURN OF THE WPITWA!

Bronze: Michelle Bachmann- Actually, it's misleading, Olby's attack is focused on the "No Comprises PAC", which backed Bachmann. The ad in question compared Bachmann to Tim Tebow. Of course Olby smashes both of them as inferior. Olby leads this award off with "Not to kick somebody when they're down." Well, that's never stopped you before, in fact, you relish it.

Silver- Rick Santorum- Yes, if you read my post above for Best Person in the world for Mr. Santorum, I won't go any further. I was right, and Olby is wrong. He starts with the lie that Santorum wants to cut off welfare for black people.

But this is a double attack. Santorum made a error, which is punishable by DEATH on Olby Planet. He said that Mussolini was in power in Italy in WWI. Of course that's a low hanging curve for Olby to hit. Gives him a chance to call Mr. Santorum a idiot.

What happens next is one of the greatests feats of Olby's Logical Jujitsu I have ever seen. Blood is squirting out of my eyes. To quote Glenn Beck, I have to wrap my head in duct tape so I can put the pieces back together easily.

He said Facisism occured when Mussolini gave tailored government to big business.

WOW! That is the most stupid thing that came out of Oblermann's mouth this year! OR LAST YEAR! Hell, I've been doing this abstract for about four years now and I can't think of a single thing Olby said that was more stupid! To qoute "Man on Fan", that man is a idiot!

To top it off, BTB calls all repbulcians FACISTS! A oldie, but a goody.

GOLD!!!!!: Pat Robertson of the 700 Club- It seems that God "told" Robertson who won. Now to be honest, I believe in a God that doesn't need high financing. While Olby believes God resides at 1600 Penn. Ave. Thing is that Robertson is nuts. Always has, always will be. To waste any time about him is folly.

Keith is pissed that God told Robertson "not to tell anyone" who wins the presidency. Okay.

Let's face facts. I'm guessing that the run of 700 Club on ABC Family (which by contract it must run forever) at 11pm EST beats Countdown's first run (along with everything else on cable). So it's another case of jealousy. Sucks to be Keith.

I was about ready to end this, but I decided to march on. Glad I did. Olby quotes Robertson, and I'll use the important part here "Your President holds a a view which is at odds with the majority-- It is a radical view of The Future of this country". Which promted Keith to add "Which involves black people", which was never in Robertson's quote.

Now I think Robertson is many things, Charlton, fraud, freak, senile, snake oil salesman. But I never thought for a second he was a racist. Keith does and his is the only opinion that matters.

and this wouldn't be a GOLD if Olby didn't pile it on. He said "If I thought God was talking to me, I'd get a MRI!" Remember, Olby and many like him think you can do whatever you want and have no consequence. We know better.

One down, how many to go before it blows up in Olby's face again? Nighty-night!

I am nowhere even close to be a religious fanatic, but something just struck me a few minutes ago. With all of this religion bashing going on these days in the media, it seems to me that athiests have a much better understanding and more tolerance of every other religion in this world EXCEPT for Christianity. And with all of these comedian athiests out there that relish in trashing God, why do they NOT trash Hell and Satan? These ass douches are so quick to pull the trigger and assassinate God, but yet when some tyrannical piece of shit gets his brains blown out, they are ready to say to their miniscule audiences that they will Burn in Hell.

We don't have all the facts out regarding Olby's absence and the...

ahh never mind, this is OlbyWatch we're talking about. Facts are tailored to suit the narrative, rather than the narrative being tailored to suit the facts.

NEWS FLASH: Olby lawyers up in spat with CurrentTV. This is probably your last chance, FatAss, and you have found yet more ways to screw up. Losing your grip on sanity, Olby?

http://www.thewrap.com/media/column-post/rift-between-olbermann-and-current-tv-deepens-%E2%80%98everybody-replaceable%E2%80%99-34091

"Facts are tailored to suit the narrative, rather than the narrative being tailored to suit the facts."

Kinda sounds like the Soros-funded non-profit propaganda outfit Media Matters, dontcha think? Since the False Murrow looks like he is on his way out of this loony bin, his last options (since there is no way he will be allowed to return to ESPN, FOX SPORTS [not Fox News like he likes to tailor to fit his narrative] and M.S.S.R.) will be to go work for The Huffing-and-Puffing-ton Post or the Daily Kooks. Thats it. The False Murrow is goose stepping his way to irrelevancy.

"ahh never mind, this is OlbyWatch we're talking about. Facts are tailored to suit the narrative, rather than the narrative being tailored to suit the facts."

Well, if you had any intelligence/balls/clue what you were talking about you'd tell "you all" what facts are being tailored to suit "you all's" allegedly false narrative.

Instead, after two years your only defense is a blatantly obvious troll comment.

Once is happenstance.
Twice is coincidence.
Third time it’s enemy action.
The fourth time it's "Facts are tailored to suit the narrative, rather than the narrative being tailored to suit the facts."
