Keith Olbermann, Hatemonger
Ages ago, when Keith Olbermann was doing SportsCenter on ESPN, he was possibly the funniest sports commentator in the the business. Since he left ESPN, I’d say that he’s rapidly gone downhill. Here’s what he said about MSNBC colleague Rita Cosby in a months-old email:
“Rita’s nice, but dumber than a suitcase of rocks.” Ms. Cosby shot back with this “Keith got it wrong,” she told the News. “I’m not that nice.”
Olbermann is a legend in his own mind and nowhere else. He routinely gets trounced by The O’Reilly Factor. In fact, it’s so bad that O’Reilly’s 3:00 AN CT rerun hase a bigger viewership than Olbermann’s 7:00 PM CT show. Furthermore, Ms. Cosby’s got a reputation as being an interviewer who regularly dug out new information during her interviews when she was hosting Fox’s Big Story Weekend.
Simply put, Olbermann is a BDS-afflicted, hate-filled little man who couldn’t make it at a real TV network. In short, he’s TV’s version of an Air America host.

I don’t understand why O’Rielly and Brian Maloney play into this guys hands.
Olbermann isn’t a “has been” he’s a “never was”.
If Bill and Brian and every other blogger on the right would simple cease and desist from acknowledging his existance… he would GO AWAY.
He has like… what… 3 whole viewers in the entire nation. His 15 minutes was up LONG ago.
Everytime Bill or Brian or anyone else points out what a complete CLOWN Olbermann is, they extend his 15 minutes by another 5.
And that’s EXACTLY what he wants. By being a slobbering moron, he knows he’s going to get bounce and play.
If the world collectively turned their backs on him, and refused to print another word. He would dry up and blow away.

Seriously, if Olbermann didn’t call Bill O’Reilly the “worst person in the world” every other night, he’d have nothing to talk about.
If he spent a little more time following the news, and less time watching everything Bill O’Reilly does like some sort of deranged stalker, then maybe a few people would watch his show.

Brian Lamb interviewed the loathsome Olbermann recently…Olbermann said Bill O’Reilly was nefarious and his show was full of lies..ten seconds later he retorted to Lamb’s next comment: “I have never watched O’Reilly and I never will.”
Typical…He’s never seen it, but he sure knows what it’s about. WHEN is the Left going to stop running on FEELINGS and give FACTS a chance?

Olbermann vs. uneducated administration apologists and sensationalist stooges like Cosby. Works for me!
Any one who thinks all he does is attack O’Reilly is running their mouth in obvious deference to that FOX poser.
As far as the tired ratings argument goes. O’reilly’s ratings and those of sensationalist media whores like Cosby are the television equivalent of a schoolyard fight. Appealing only to the lesser nature of humanity while repulsive and unfulfilling in every other way.
