Olbermann Suggests FNC Discriminates Against Non-White or Muslim Employees

On Friday’s Countdown show, MSNBC host Keith Olbermann suggested that Fox News is a racist organization that would hold race or religion against its employees in awarding promotions, as he used the show’s "Worst Person" segment to slam Fox and Friends co-hosts Brian Kilmeade, Gretchen Carlson, and Peter Johnson, for raising questions about whether Muslims serving in the military should be treated with more attention. While every show in MSNBC’s primetime and morning lineups has a host who is white and non-Muslim, Olbermann suggested that the Fox and Friends hosts would have trouble succeeding at FNC if they were Muslim or non-white. Olbermann: "Since we’re asking questions, I have one for Carlson, Johnson, and Kilmeade. You guys ever wonder if you all succeeded inside a company like Fox mostly because you’re not Muslim or black or Asian or Hispanic?"

Isn’t MSNBC loaded with white people?

Where’s the Muslim anchor?

Olberman please return the pay increase you received that resulted from Tarp money!!

this shows you just how desperate PMSNBC and Queef Ogreman are by having to make up news about another competing news cable channel that happens to be pounding the crap outta of them in the ratings. I guess when you can’t rail on Bush anymore, you have to really start to make non news stories up instead of tackling the real news of just how awful Buttcrack Obomba is.

MSNBC with its three viewers trying to dictate how FOX news (#1 by far in viewership) should be run...

Last I checked Herr Olberfuhrer was a whitey. Kind of like the pot calling the kettle black, don’t you think?

While every show in MSNBC’s primetime and morning lineups has a host who is white and non-Muslim...

Meanwhile, MSNBC alone featured the past two days a former FBI "profiler", white, male, who time and again went off on the gov't and military authorities who neglected the obvious signs thrown up by the muslim jihadist perpetrator. TO THEIR CREDIT!!!!! No one but MSNBC had a 'profiler'. Hypocrite.

Hmmm.. Judging from Olbermann it seems that MSNBC discriminates against people with a cerebral cortex.

I would suggest to everyone here that if for some reason you regularly watch MSNBC ...you stop now.

...they are right on the edge of dropping off the ratings for the lack of viewers....therefore, every single viewer is precious to them.

...how cool would it be to know that you stopping watching MSNBC would be the trigger that caused their destruction.

....besides...who really cares what "bathtub boy" says? I don't...and the only thing that I hear from him is right here on FR....

....to simply ignore a slimey person is one of the most powerful signs of disrespect and disagreement.

Yeah so does NBC football. Why not step aside and let a Muslim have your slot. I bet the broadcast would improve.

I had to buy a new dryer this AM. I ended up spending nearly $200 more to buy a Maytag rather than a GE because I refuse to give them one more dime of my money.

Who is Olbermann? And who is MSNBC? Is that a disease or something?

I hate these stories that make the freaking assumption you have any clue what they are are talking about. Why the heck do they think I know what they are talking about?

I hope race baiting freepers who ply their trade here see just how easy a leap it is from their preening to Olberman’s.

All part of the same problem and that problem allows folks like Hasan Nidal to flourish as well just as another example of how anti-white bigoted political correctness has weakened this nation and made us vulnerable and killed our traditions..

I think MSNBC actually beats CNN at news time in evenings because lefties flock to Olbermann and the dyke.
