Ed Rendell's spokesman: Monday's Worst Person in the World?

[Berry Cool]

From Gar Joseph's "Clout" column in the Philadelphia Daily News:

...With the Pennsylvania primary in the national spotlight, Gov. Rendell's been getting a lot of face time on TV.

But when he told Fox News that it "has done the fairest job, and remained the most objective of all the cable networks," it caused MSNBC yakker Keith Olbermann to go ballistic on Monday. Olbermann called Rendell "an idiot" and bestowed "the worst person in the world" award on him.

We asked Rendell spokesman Chuck Ardo if his boss is an idiot and the worst person in the world.

"There are a lot better reasons to believe Ed Rendell is the worst person in the world than Fox News," Ardo said.

Would he like to list those reasons?

"No," he said. "Look, Keith Olbermann is an entertainer and his job is to attract an audience. He has no fundamental commitment to either accuracy or rational thought. Given that lack of accountability, Keith's comments have to be taken in stride."

This is interesting. Rendell's own spokesman says there are lots of reasons to believe the man he represents is the worst person in the world...THEN he accuses Keith Olbermann of having no fundamental commitment to accuracy or rational thought!

The joke writes itself!
