Keith Olbermann, The Art of Madness
NewsReal Blog ^ | September 5, 2009 | David Forsmark

Thursday, Glenn Beck used two stories -- one of the Obama Administration’s misuse of the National Endowment for the Arts, the other of Obama’s planned speech to the nation’s elementary schools -- to show that subtle propaganda in American culture is nothing new.

For his last Countdown segment of the week -- the supposed “Number One Story!” -- MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann purported to deconstruct Glenn Beck’s report on the fascist and communist roots of much of the art at Rockefeller Center, home of NBC News. Now, admittedly, Beck can get a bit emotional, but after this segment, MSNBC execs might spend their holiday weekend pondering changing the name of Olbermann’s show to Meltdown.

Olbermann? Never watch him.... and it looks like fewer and fewer are these days. Giving him ANY attention is too much.... the guy is irrelevant except to kooks.

The few times I happened to catch him while channel surfing made me want to vomit. This guy’s more deranged and Mr. Tingles Mathews. Oh well, I guess he brings the network beacon home.

Yes he is. During the early 90s, he and Dan Patrick were hilarious.

I even bought their book. Oh, well, Dan Patrick is a good guy.

The weird thing is, Keith is actually an excellent sports anchor. He co-hosted that Yankee Stadium special and you’d forget that he is a moonbat. Keith even worked on FOX sports after Monicagate for a while. Not sure why he became a water carrier for the left.

I agree about his sports acumen. I just think he’s a bitter man for some reason (I know he has vision problems) and he uses his leftist ways as an outlet.

He’s certainly gay for Obama at any rate.

"excellent sports anchor"

A great many sportswriters and reporters are leftist nuts (Mike Lupica, Tony Kornheiser)...something I'm sure you already know.

Like most sportscasters, Olbermann is a frustrated nerd who couldn’t succeed at sports and got beaten up by girls.

I caught part of Olbermann’s “episode” on the air. What amazes me is that there are actually a few people so childish that they find this mentally ill lunatic to be “informative”. His sneering, snarky name-calling and his pompous hyper-inflated rants combine to form a portrait of a clearly deranged loser with the maturity of a small child.
