Keith, if they continue this shit, take your 1 million viewers over to HDNet with Dan Rather.

I think all 1 million will come along with you.

All of the asswipes at NBC who supported the war in Iraq can't stand Olbermann's success.

I don't watch MSNBC. I watch Keith Olbermann.

1. Me, too. And Olbermann's not an anchor,
should never have been in that slot. Same for Chris Matthews.

They were lousy, and the decision not to do it again isn't any kind of demotion. It's a sound business decision, leaving the two guys in their rightful positions, where they are their best.

So the folks they put in the anchor's seat are good anchors? That's a crock of bull. (nt)

8. Did I say that? No, I did not,
and your crude, inappropriate response is uncalled for.

10. You said that replacing them was a "sound buisness decision". Let's not split hairs. (nt)

4. It's a public demotion and they humiliated him. It's all over the news.
And the jackals at GE are licking their Iraq-war-loving chops.

9. It's a specialty slot
These jobs occur rarely, and it was an audition. It didn't work. That's show business.

Demotion?

Naw. Hardly. Don't buy the spin that's being put out. It was nothing more than an experiment. Keith and Chris are safe and sound where they're happiest.

2. Do yourself a favor, and stay tuned for Rachel Maddow!
It will be worth it!

7. tell Keith to watch how Palin's spouse is always so close to her..
it's weird....he comes on stage with Palin and Mccain....he waves like a celebrity.......what is going on? That is odd. Did Mccain get both of them on the ticket?

John/Sarah & Todd for President!

3. Oh come on!
You can at least try to one-up the other DUer's who toot their own horns about how they don't watch any corporate media, or even some, any tv at all. They're better than that, and they're better than you.

6. WTF? In your seething hatred of me, you ascribe motivations to me that are delusionary.
Edited on Mon Sep-08-08 07:48 PM by David Zephyr
You make me laugh. They all may be better than me with the exception of you. That's one measurement I know I exceed. But that's easy, as you already know.
