Conservatives Attack Olbermann!
This is probably good news, because it gives him extra publicity and will energize the liberals.

Here's the link: http://mediamatters.org/items/200411160006

6. Any guy who can hold up a giant check on his program
Offering it for the Bill O'Reilly tapes in not someone who'd be easily intimidated. He's probably enjoying it immensely.

14. No, it was good. Very witty.
You found a good way to make a gentle suggestion. I admire those with tact. Never learned much about it myself ;)

7. Good catch. Thanks for the link
And welcome to the DU! :hi: Looking forward to reading more from you.

Yeah, the propaganda machine will have to work to try and throw dirt on Olbermann. Same ol ploy: denigrate and discredit anyone pointing up logical conclusions to existing evidence.

Odd that things Powell was pointing up about the Ukrainian election, showing that those elections were likely not accurate are the same conditions in many precincts in the US. When Olbermann asks the same questions about the conditions under which people voted HERE, the wingers go on the attack.

But, it's not politicalwhen the RW does it. :eyes: Yeah, sure it isn't.

11. First time I heard the Powell speech
I was flipping channels and found him on C-SPAN after he had started and for a while I thought he'd found his legs again and was speaking of U.S. 04 elections. I almost wonder if he deliberately chose to utter those few passages in language so obviously applicable to both countries.

22. That's her way of flirting.
She's just trying to get a little attention. Imagine what a nightmare it must be looking for a date from the pool of repuke guys.

23. We should probably write Keith's bosses at MSNBC...
Even if Keith is determined to stay with the story, his bosses could pull the plug if they are inundated with complaints from the right. Does anyone have contact emails for MSNBC news division?
