The DUmmie FUnnies will be announcing its endorsement for Presidential nomination next week. The name of the candidate will cause both shock and awe. Shock as to who the candidate is and awe because of the brilliance of the choice. Remember, the primary criterion in making this choice is how it HELPS the DUmmie FUnnies.

Let me know if you want on the DUmmie FUnnies PING List.

IB4TP, and with some commentary as well...

Olbermann and MSNBC are knocking heads over a new contract. The controversial host of Countdown With Keith Olbermann is said to be seeking "north of $4 million" a year, according to an industry source, to re-up on his pact that comes due in April. That would represent roughly a four-fold increase over his current deal, believed to be in the $1 million-per-year range.

So instead of $100,000 per viewer, he wants $400,000. BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

I don't see Olbermann getting $4,000,000 anywhere else, so I don't think option 3 is the ticket. Although, anything is possible -- look at Limbaugh's salary!

Using the $400,000/viewer math Olbermann wants to use, Rush should be getting somewhere north of $6 billion per year.

PING!

[Dooderbutt]

Oooh, oooh! Top 5?!?!?

[Mercat]

top ten

[FDNYRHEROES]

7?

[Always Right]

Not to mention his crack team.

I always suspected Olbermann used crack, but why does he need a team for his habit?

[FDNYRHEROES]

TOP 10?

[Some input from the mindless groupie contingent whose sarcasm makes me suspect she is really a LOUSY FREEPER TROLL!!!]

Borne out by the fact that she wrote "HUmans"...hmmm...

[The_Victor]

Top 20!!

[Condor51]

The DUmmies are keeping you really busy of late.

Then again, watching the INSANE is a full time job :-)

[gate2wire]

They are shedding $750 million costs (which means people), and Olberman is going going to get a 300% raise! $3 million dollars. That could cost 100+ low-end workers their jobs at MSNBC. Does Olberman not see this, or not care?

BWAHahahaha...You mean the compassionate, liberal, DUmmie hero wants to make more money...at the expense of low end workers? Say it isn't so.

[socialismisinsidious]

One would hope that if Keith is truly a champion for progressive ideals, he may have a problem making 100x what his camera men or researchers or assistant to the junior writers are making.

Wow a Marxist following the "progressive ideal" who doesn't have a problem being a hypocrite. Who would have thunk. /s

DUmmies are so pathetic; via the liberal agenda they will sink this country into socialism and they will clap themselves on the back all the while bewildered that their liberal leaders aren't following the "progressive ideals".....pathetically, sadly funny.

[MortMan]

Not a good sign. Usually, such moves mean one of three things: 1. The person seeking the enormous salary is sick of their job and only a huge salary will keep them in place. 2. The person seeking the raise is suffering from massive ego inflation. 3. The market would support such a salary -- it's a fair request or he's been offered another job.

[The the winner is...NUMBER TWO!!!]

Be charitable, PJ... The real reasons could be numbers 1 and 2!!! ;-P

MSNBC's Olbermann Seeks Big Raise

Maybe MSNBC's Olbermann should FIRST seek big RATINGS.

[Charles Henrickson]

Olbermann and MSNBC are knocking heads over a new contract.

And if MSNBC has any sense, KO will get KO'd.

Of course, they're the ones who were foolish enought to hire him in the first place, so who knows?

[Charles Henrickson]

The controversial host of Countdown With Keith Olbermann is said to be seeking "north of $4 million" a year. . . .

Even though his ratings are south of a horse's tail.

[Charles Henrickson]

That would represent roughly a four-fold increase over his current deal. . . .

PJ, I DEMAND a four-fold increase over my current deal as Resident Parodist of the DUmmie FUnnies!

[WinOne4TheGipper]

So you're going to endorse Dennis Kucinich?:)

[Charles Henrickson]

his current deal, believed to be in the $1 million-per-year range.

How this guy even draws that much of a salary for what he does now. . . . I guess there must be one or two million barking moonbats with cable who lap his stuff up. Go figure.

You know, Olbermann USED TO BE semi-witty when he co-hosted ESPN SportsCenter way back when. But move him over to the hard-left political realm and give him a show of his own . . . it's Olbermann Overload.

Way back when, I used to find Al Franken and Janeane Garofolo mildly entertaining, too, when they stayed away from politics. I still find Garrison Keillor amusing if he stays away from politics. Why don't these people stick with what they do best?

[Charles Henrickson]

In the key 25-54 demo, its ratings are up 25% year-to-date. . . .

All the way from 4,000 to 5,000 viewers!
