Countdown with Keith Olbermann

I notice that a lot of people don't like this show. Here's a thread to explain why he is just as bad as Fox News pundits.

I've always liked him and considered him a modern day Edward R. Murrow (which is, I'm sure, his objective.)

He does lay on the hyperbole a little thick sometimes...

I have never really seen him (only clips on you tube) but I would bet that the reason the "right" hate him, is that he actually calls them on the bs propaganda crap, miss information, twisting of facts and even lately racist and xenophobic comments they keep pulling. I know O'Rielly just loves the guy.....so that must mean he is doing something right.

That's exactly why they don't like him.

I love Keith--it's one of my favorite shows. I appreciate the fact that he will attack people who are in his own party. He was pretty darn harsh with Hillary Clinton on 2 occassions.

I think he's a walking talking piece of ****. He doesn't have the first ****ing clue what he's talking about, he just gives knee jerk moralistic responses that make Bill O'Reilly look like an actual libertarian. He's pompous, he's always a dick, and he's a ****ing propagandist. O'Reilly pushes **** in his own stupid direction, but Olbermann isn't nearly as creative and just propagandizes for the sake of the far left. I think it's a fitting show for the MSNBC network, which would improve its quality if it replaced its programming with an obese man ****ting onto the camera lens.

Other than that I think it's a wonderful program

He was ok on Sportscenter.

Since then he has become a talking head leftist.
