is on the again tonight, to try and convince that she didn't purposely steal for her CBS Evening News on Letterman. Of course this is a lie, assuming Couric is as ruthlessly competitive as any network news anchor must be in order to succeed. But her exchange with Letterman is worth watching if only for all the fun bashing of , the MSNBC shouting head who filled in for McCain. Click the video icon to...
On the same night as celebrations of Barack Obama’s historic victory two weeks ago, there was the troubling rejection of existing recognition of gay marriage in the state of California by voters there. Many LDV readers will be familiar with Keith Olbermann, the MSNBC news anchorman, whose on air editorials on progressive issues seek to counter-balance [...]
MSNBC took denigrating Alaska Governor Sarah Palin to a new low on Thursday night's Countdown. With “BREAKING NEWS” ridiculously on screen, MSNBC ended the show, hosted by David Shuster filling in for Keith Olbermann, with more than three minutes of video of some turkeys being slaughtered by a man behind Palin while rotating chyrons hyperbolically declared: GOV. PALIN PICKS WORST POSSIBLE BACKDROP...
MSNBC's Keith Olbermann, host of "Countdown," is on vacation so I am stepping into the breach for his signature feature, "Worst Persons." My nominee comes courtesy of Newsweek , as reported by Howard Kurtz of the Washington Post : "Obama triggers such fear in the hearts of America's millennialist Christians. Mat Staver, dean of Liberty University's law school, says he does not believe Obama is the...
Last week, I watched Keith Olbermann's commentary on his MSNBC show, Countdown, as he proclaimed: “I don't have a personal investment in this: I'm not gay, I had to strain to think of one member of even my very extended family who is, I have no personal stories of close friends ...
Shannyn Moore writes a long note to Keith Olbermann for breaking up with her — to the extent that he’s been bashing Alaska and happily turning his back on Sarah Palin’s constituency. It’s a true homage to Alaska and the fight for progressive values that has gone on there during the state’s history. Here’s a [...]
Have you seen the montage of Keith Olbermann’s “Special Commentaries'” They are, quite simply, priceless. Can you imagine how cool it would be if, at the VERY end of one of his Special Commentaries, when he turns away from the camera and brazenly steals Edward R. Morrow’s signature tag-line (“Good night and good luck”), he [...]
When Michael Medved wrote his column, Six inconvenient truths about the U.S. and slavery a year ago, lefties went nuts, mischaracterizing him as defending slavery, and Keith Olbermann distinguished him with the much coveted “Worst Person in the World” award. Love his challenge to the caller Jamal, in this radio interview from November 30th, regarding if [...]

Keith Olbermann gets to do his "Special Comment" on Countdown when the mood strikes. Well, here's mine. This, for me, wasn't about "payback" or "vengeance." Removing Joe Lieberman from his Chairmanship of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs wasn't about hurt feelings over him endorsing John McCain for President or taking shots at Barack Obama. When we root for Democrats...
Note: glazed expression, but still keeping up on the eyebrows. I keep having the vague feeling that Barack Obama stole my summer. One minute it was hot and sunny, light until 9 pm and I spent every spare minute hunkered down in my dark house cheering on Keith Olbermann while compulsively checking the Internet. Then I blinked, Obama became president, there was a worldwide celebration and suddenly it...
Download | Play Download | Play From the Nov. 17, 2008 edition of Countdown, guest host David Shuster, filling in for Keith Olbermann, talks to Jonathan Turley about the possibility of George Bush issuing blanket pardons for the crimes committed by himself and his administration and what it means for the rule of law that remains in the United States. UPDATE (Nicole): Does anyone actually believe that...
The Cable Gamer has detailed MSNBC's Pro-Obama strategy: Suck up to the Obama Left, and thereby get all the Barack Obama fans to watch as MSNBC-ers (and to a lesser extent, NBC) cheerlead for the O-Man. (That's Obama, not Keith Olbermann , in case you were wondering.) In addition, TCG has noted the unforeseen upside: GE Capital, sister company to MSNBC (as well as to CNBC and NBC) is now on the receiving...
