Keith Olbermann rumor I heard at lunch. Swiftboat time?
Keith has really been nailing the Bush Administration and President Bush lately. I wonder if his honesty and courage has opened him up to attacks from the Reicht Wing.

Today at lunch, I heard the story about "that loud mouth liberal Keith Olbermann" who met some woman in a New York Hotel room with a bottle of Merlot. He proceeded to seduce the woman after getting her tipsy, and they soon wound up in the sack.

The woman said Keith was so bad, she faked one to get it over as quickly as possible. Now she supposedly has a website, and other women have come forward with similar stories about what a slut Keith is, and how bad he is in bed.

Any truth to this, or is it all fabricated? I didn't see anything here at DU, which kind of surprised me.

Regardless of what Olbermann does in his time off the camera, the words he speaks on air are the honest truth, so I can see how he's ruffled some feathers, and could be a target of a smear campaign to discredit him.

I wish I could remember that name of the blog that woman started.

Keith's gonna just laugh this off.

42. For This Relief Much Thanks.....
http://forthisreliefmuchthanks.blogspot.com/

After a long discussion with my supervisor today, we both decided I need to get some counseling. My work has been suffering, I've distanced myself from family, I'm not taking care of myself and I'm fixated on someone who couldn't care less about me. I'm really worried about what I've become.

I was a willing participant in what led to the one-night stand but if he'd shown a little bit more class and have been less of an asshole to me, this whole mess could've been avoided.

I'm going to be away for a few days from the blog, I'll be checking myself into a place (my health insurance will pay for most of it) and hopefully I will get the help I need.

He told me once he had been "emotionally scarred" about something that happened to him in his life. And now he's done the same to me.


She's not too tightly wound....I, for one, do not find this significant.

69. sounds eerily like that the luntic that was stalking
david letterman. doesn't matter to the ny post that this woman seems seriously unstable, and i'm glad she's getting help. sounds like a woman scorned to me. from her own account, she booked a room, keith showed up with a bottle of merlot, and she was flat on her back in under an hour. is she upset that keith didn't fall in love with her?

one thing's for sure, the ny post has now thrust keith further into the spotlight, and as they say, "there is no bad publicity". i hope his ratings are off the chart after this.

Go Keith....you got 'em running scared.

106. If he's characterized as a "loudmouth liberal," you can bet the
accuser's bias is showing.

Keith, more power to ya! And go ahead and be LOUD!!!

Edited on Tue Oct-10-06 01:31 PM by TwoSparkles
...that I highly doubt he was 'bad in bed' as these women are suggesting.

We're supposed to believe that this outrageously attractive, courageous, conscientious,
caring, articulate, thoughtful, passionate trailblazer of a man---who's not afraid to stand up for
his country--is 'bad in bed'?

Oh please. :eyes:

And yes, I agree with you. If I wasn't married, I'd happily volunteer to debunk this rumor, by spending spend a lazy Saturday afternoon in a posh hotel room with KO! I'll do it for my country...the red, white and the blue!

12. It follows the same pattern GOP operatives have used for DECADES - plant a
story and keep building on it. They did this to Clinton, Sid Blumenthal, Dan Rather, Kerry and ANY Dem who sticks their neck out.

Swiftboating was just another form of impeachmenting.

96. Anytime anybody hears this, spread a rumor about a repuke.
True or not.

"Well, I heard that Rush Limbaugh likes little boys. And he's been a child predator for years, but the right wing media is covering it up. And I heard that Sean Hannity once attacked a woman, but she fought him off and was silenced by Fox News. And I heard that Bill O'Reilly (insert factual story about Falalfel boy here) ..."

You get the idea.

I can certainly postulate that rush fucks dogs and Vanity wears a different pair of women's undies on the air every night.

it was in the NY Post-- repeating a rumor just spreads it around. But, the gossip is in the NY Post today.

F*cking lowlives... this b*tch is crazier than the Glenn Close character in "Fatal Attraction". She's turning her one-night stand with KO into a cottage industry-- trying to, anyway. Using the Internets to trash Olbermann.

Yeah, I'll bet Hannity and O'Loofah are TIGERS in bed. :puke:

When he got the white powder in the mail?

I'll bet KO could do a humorous riff on this. As much as I love his rants, I also love his humor.

OTOH, if this woman is for real and just unbalanced, he'd be too kind to do something like that.

26. If this is the best they can do on Keith they are really
in trouble. Headline: "Olberman sleeps with woman! She is not satisified!" Even if this were true, and considering the accuracy of the NYP report of Keith's brush with white powder I highly doubt it, what difference does his performance in the sack make? If the quality of someones sexual activity was an indication of their broadcasting skills then ViagraMan and FalafalBoy would be out of their jobs!

How shallow would somebody have to be to stop watching KO's show because they heard a rumor that he was bad in bed? Either you (general) like KO or you don't, but the NYPost spreading rumors like this one is just dumb. It doesn't make a difference to anybody who isn't an idiot. I guess that says something about who they think their readership is, doesn't it?

i generally think that if she's a republican woman, she's probably so uptight that she wouldn't know a good lay if she got one (he would probably need more than a bottle of wine ... more like a crowbar to get those legs apart). :rofl:

36. Wasn't Tucker Carlson accused of rape some years ago - by a woman he had n
never even MET. I don't think it made it as far as even going to court.

There are lots of nuts out there - as any celebrity can tell you. The difference is she is being given recognition right now because it is convenient to some people (Republicans.)

I worked in a rather small radio station, and we had our groupies - so you can just imagine what TV personalities go through - especially because KO is good-looking.

40. So, Olbermann got it on with a groupie?
Good for him! Go get you some, Keith, baby!

Although, the merlot thing is a bit cliche, groupies aren't generally too picky about the particulars of their trysts... What's her complaint then? He didn't want a "relationship" with her? What, is she NEW at this groupie business or something?

I don't think "he sucks in bed" is a terribly damaging assertion. It's not going to threaten his career or even his prospects of tearing one off in the future.

What does it do, besides making the people pressing the allegations look somewhat tawdry?

Wow--no underage boys? No gay prostitutes? Yeah, that Olbermann's quite the degenerate.

He even (by the stalker chick's own admission) called her AFTER the tryst to make a polite exit, so whether they clicked or not, he still showed class.

And this is supposed to reflect badly on Olbermann how, exactly?

I bet if every woman got in line that had sex with Bush or Rush or any of those so called Mission Accomplished thugs, it would be a real night mare of stories.

Keith has more excitment in his little finger and his heart than any of them have in their entire ugly bodies.

They are really looking for anything to nail him and that dog won't hunt!

64. So who's collecting this information on KO?
Linda Tripp and Ken Starr?

Even if KO is a playboy who doesn't perform well, what has that to with the shortcomings of G. W. Bush that he talks about on his television program?

Once again, the Republicans are stuck without anything to say in their own defense and proceed to attack their opponent personally. This isn't a discussion on national affairs; this is character assassination.

73. UHM.............Do I smell the typical RW tactic and their obsesion with
other peoples' sex life. Remember the GOP had a business
digging up dirt on Clinton. Because they know this upsets
a certain type of consituent they consider sex stories very
high premium. Therefore if one wants to hurt or marginalize
Oberman, dig up sex dirt. If there is none there, then lie.

What Oberman does in his private life, really is no one's
business. It sounds from that story a lot of women seem
to be lining up for a "turn" . Repubs besmirch women
here--in fact they make women sound like sluts. Never Mind,
as long they get to Oberman --it matters not who gets
hurt along the way.

Are they jealous????? Mary Matalin's famous line she uses
over and over. " Republicans do not have sex".

I'm guessing this nut job was the reason. Can't take chances with the fan base.

Stupid twit that woman. Made it difficult for the rest of us to get emails.

FWIW, I'm happily married and (now) pregnant. I'm hardly interested in what Keith's like in bed.

But - there was a time - before I met my husband - that I would have liked to have found out, but wasn't too concerned that I didn't. :)

...While laughing @ them I would make them aware of the tens of thousands of woman who would give their right arm to have a chance with KO. I would then go on to say how pathetic the rw smear machine is that because all of their heroes are turning out to be either child predators, protectors of child predators, or closet gays who spend their time gay-bashing and republicans in general are feeling emasculated, it only makes them look like whiny weenies to make this shit up about a Liberal stud. I would continue on to comment on to ask why the rw talking point machine hasn't had any refutation to KO's commentaries. Could it be because KO shows the republicans to be Constitution hating fearful weenies?

I LAUGH IN THEIR FACE AND FART IN THEIR GENERAL DIRECTION! :rofl:

81. I read a bit on the woman's blog. I think there must be more to it.
She was encouraging people to come forward with dirt on Keith on previous blogs. I'm smelling a smear job. I can see KKKarl Rove doing something like this.

I guess Keith could address it on his show, but that might only draw more attention to it, which would be beneficial to the woman with the blog. Maybe best left alone for now.

84. After several hundred posts and emails on multiple blogs he/she/it

claims that he/she/it has put KO behind her
and is moving on with his/her/its life.

Before he/she/it goes on with his/her/its life
he/she/it has to have a life to begin with.

You don't have to go as high as KKK Rove on this
one. It's a classic FReeper agit prop hit job.

This nutter claims KO gave her his tie as a present
and published photo of said tie hanging on his/her/its
computer monitor. No picture of he/she/it though.

It was only when pressed for promised photo evidence
of her personal relationship with KO that she decided
not to publish said photos and instead put the incident
behind he/she/it.

A rather timely and convenient catharsis I must say.

I didn't have time to read everything at her blog but I wonder if she's the same one who released the email where Keith said that Rita was dumber than a box of rocks. I think that took place sometime during the summer.

I don't think KO should address it..to acknowledge it would be to feed her desire for some type of attention from him.

and keith's rivalry, I was suspect before but after reading some of her blog.. UMM HELLLLLOOO She just sounds like a bitter pissed off republican who hates that O'Leilly is getting slapped around.

But anyway does this woman have a hotel receipt or a blue dress anywhere? Unless she has evidence couldn't she just be making shit up?

I mean details were sketchy at best, no distinguishing birthmarks, no sloppy condom in the trash bin, no recorded phone conversations or even phone records. Not even a a scrap of DNA, I mean OJ left behind more evidence then Keith. She could be some Sleeper Freeper making shit up over the Keith's ass slapping of this disaster they call the republican party.

She really just sounds like a woman scorned with no proof of anything.

If I didn't care what Clinton did with his penis or cigars, I certainly don't care what Keith does or doesn't do in some anonymous hotel room.

It's a non-starter: two consenting adults (IF it's true at all, which is unproven) and she's telling tales while he's keeping mum (or ignoring it if it's phony, which is likely, as the details don't add up.)

Edited on Tue Oct-10-06 09:39 PM by LostInAnomie
So if they were together for 8 hours that can either mean one of three things: 1. KO is a master of stamina. 2. She was lame in the sack and couldn't "finish the deal". 3. She's full of shit and wanted a few repeat performances.

Either way, they are both consenting adults, and KO never claimed to be a paragon of sexual virtue. So why the hell is this a story?

121. Suggestion to all. Every time we hear an "Olbermann" rumor,
let's do the exact opposite of what the rumor monger wants us to do. Let's IGNORE it. Don't give it one second of thought.
Don't give it a thread. Don't do anything but line your parrot's cage with it.

The rumor mills WANT us to talk about this. They WANT us to repeat it.
If we repeat it, more people will hear about it. And some will believe it.

Keith doesn't need this crap. He's telling the truth and people are trying to make him pay for that truth. DON'T HELP THEM. EVER.

Geez, that's an absolutely terrific political hit-site, particularly for someone who is merely "a woman scorned."

and she's a Democrat? A pretty politically self-destructive "Democrat" I'd say. the whole site stinks of enormous amounts of bullshit.

But maybe she is nuts, and will come back from "therapy" to tell us she imagined the whole thing, thus avoiding lawsuits. who's her boss who advised her? Ken Mehlman?

Personally speaking, I'd love it if Kieth were a slut.
