MSNBC’s mad dog host Keith Olbermann has wiped the foam from his mouth long enough to issue a “correction” in regard to recent comments he incorrectly attributed to News Corp chairman Rupert Murdoch.

“Incidentally, a correction on Murdoch,” Olbermann said. “We have quoted several times the transcript of a News Corp conference call provided by the usually reliable financial website called SeakingAlpha.com, in which the News Corp boss was quoted as saying, ‘we have never been a company that tolerates facts.’ It turns out SeekingAlpha.com got it wrong. Murdoch, in fact, said ‘we have never been a company that tolerates fat.’ SeekingAlpha.com has yet to correct or apologize for its mistake, so we will. Henceforth, we will stick exclusively to the transcripts from ShiverMeTimbers.com.”...

“we will stick exclusively to the transcripts from ShiverMeTimbers.com.”...”

How about actual reporters that were actually there to cover the events? You know, like when they take notes of quotes? If it wasn’t for the internet, Olbermann would not have a show.

I’ve come to think of Olbermann as Elanor Clift shot full of female hormones.

With all the comptent people out of work, NBC keeps this mutant employed.

Those pictures of Imelt and Travis the chimp that Keith has squirrled away are really paying off.

Murdoch, in fact, said ‘we have never been a company that tolerates fat.’

I don't know, some of the Fox news babes are getting a little chunky.
