Not to worry. Olbermann will be out of a job by the end of this year.

MSNBC is cutting way back, and Olby will not survive the cuts. His ratings are in the toilet.

"Who is this 'Olbermann' you speak of?"

Fecal matter that grew eyes and became employed by the MSM as a political broadcaster - because he apparently wasn't smart enough to cover SPORTS....

And no one heard. I guarantee you that, right now, there are more people listening to the WWV time signal (at 5000 Khz) on short-wave radio than are watching MSNBC.

K.O. is an ESPN washout. The good news is the only intellectual casualties of his nightly spit-um are the 500 or so morons that tune in.

Keith should be totally ignored. He's like some monster who feeds on hate.

He feeds on his own hate and also the hate of those who hate him.

If he is ignored, he will disappear into a small pile of stuff ... watch where you are walking.

Take It From an Olbermann Fan

I’ve become an occasional visitor to your site in typical “let’s what the other guys are talking about” fashion. I consider myself the typical, what you would call angry raging leftist and you’re right on about Keith. Despite the CW about liberal media, I have a hard time finding any, especially in radio/TV (I mean, c’mon, I live in NYC metro and it’s Hannity, O’Reilly, Limbaugh, Levin, Scarborough, Savage and on and on....). Watching Olbermann over the past few months (and I was a fan going back to him and Craig Kilborn re-inventing sports anchors on SportsCenter) he’s become so good it usually either brings a smile to my face or tears to my eyes. Someone out there understands how many of us feel and isn’t afraid to scream it out loud, especially these “Special Comments.” And, yes, though I didn’t vote for Nader, I’ve bought all of Mr. Moore’s books and seen all his movies. I know you guys like to minimize him, but there are plenty of us out here anxiously awaiting his next Special Comments and e-mailing them to each other all over the country. Of course you disagree with him, but you’re right not to discount his growing popularity and influence. Right now, we don’t have many in the political arena speaking for us (maybe Feingold and Dean), so we tune in to Stewart, Colbert, Rich, Franken, Moore, et al to get our progressive fix.

Olbermann is channeling Howard Beale.

Re: Krazy Keith Ratings [Tim Graham]

John, I think Olbermann needs to be taken seriously. He is the nation’s televised face of sneering, drooling Bush hatred. Olbermann’s October has been a festival of long and feverish commentaries, repeatedly sending the message that we’re presently living under a terrorist and a dictator. He’s claimed "the leading terrorist group in this country right now is the Republican Party." That the Bush team “have institutionalized the terrorizing of the opposition. True domestic terror.” Even talking about 9/11 is described as “gruesome, intentional, terroristic invocations yesterday of the horrors of 9/11.” Olbermann is so feverish even Laura Bush is evil, as “the First Lady silently sticks the knife in Michael J. Fox's back.”
This makes CNN’s Crossfire look like The Wiggles. But I can’t imagine Jon Stewart will put on his injured-citizen face and plead with Keith to stop the madness.

Comparing Olbermann to dogpiles is an insult to dogpiles everywhere...

Call me paranoid, but I have visions of typing out what I'd love to do and as soon as I hit the post button (twice) my front door would be knocked down by the Feds.
