This is war. It is official. the Left is utterly desperate to destroy Glenn Beck.
Keith Olbermann has written a personal "diary" on DailyKos titled: "Send Me Everything You Can Find About Glenn Beck"
Olbermann also is asking for dirt on "Stu Burguiere and Roger Ailes". Stu is Glenn's longtime producer and friend. this is in response to Beck's Tweet from the other day which said: "FIND EVERYTHING YOU CAN ON CASS SUNSTEIN, MARK LLOYD AND CAROL BROWNER. Do notlink before burning to disc."
Olbermann continues...
Tuesday we will expand this to the television audience and have a dedicated email address to accept leads, tips, contacts, on Beck, his radio producer Burguiere, and the chief of his tv enablers, Ailes (even though Ailes' power was desperately undercut when he failed to pull off his phony "truce" push).
This becomes necessary after this in order to prove various cliches about goose and gander, and to remind everybody to walk softly and carry a big popsicle, and most particularly to save this nation from the Oligarhy of The Stupid.
I keep wondering if somewhere somebody named Ollie Garhey thinks he's in charge now. Or, even more entertainingly and societally satisfying, if somebody named Ali Garhi does.
Despite the worn-out snark above, I am in earnest here.
Keith apparently doesn't realize that his bizarre, unfunny reference contribute to his own dismal ratings. He is no Dennis Miller and could not hope to be. However expect things to get white hot in the MSNBC-FoxNews war this coming week.
DefendGlenn.com has some special surprises for Mr. Olbermann & Co. coming up. Stay tuned.
(see DefendGlenn's Twitter post for link to Kos, if you can stomach it)
I dont remember any earth shatterring news either.
Flynt claimed he was going to publish facts that would be sensational.
All talk IIRC.
ROTFLMPO!
Wow what did I miss?
Who venerated Larry Flynt?
Amazing!
Some years ago. Larry Flynt pledged to expose Repubs with sex secrets. He became a darling of the Left [hurl].
It means that things can be taken off the internet... such as claiming intellectual property rights and/or copyright to have songs, video, etc removed.
the WH now knows that nothing is safe from the possibility of being recorded and they fear that the rest of the WH czars are gonna have their audio/video go viral. So, they will try to take it down.
If you find it, download it to your computer. If it is on Youtube, here is a handy way to download their stuff.
I fear Obama will make LBJ look like a Girl Scout.
Except that you’ve really UNDERstated it. Beck is on at 5PM and gets 2X CNN and MSNBC COMBINED at that hour.
The numbers Beck pulls at 5PMEST/4PMCST are nothing short of phenomenal. He pulls over THREE MILLION people some evenings.....which rivals Bill O’Reilly’s 8PM numbers. And O’Reilly slaughters Overbite, usually by about 3 to 1.
That’s why all the boycott stuff about Beck is laughable. SOMEONE will pay to reach 3 million people at 5PMEST. The real question is: can Fox really afford to keep him on then, and not put him in prime time?
Hank
That is what my post was reffering to.
He claimed to expose jaw dropping info.
Didnt pan out, he found nothing shocking. IIRC
All talk from a man that made his money from being an exploitive sexual perv.
Well, I think he sent two or three Republican congresscritters home to their wives with some 'splainin' to do ..... Rep. Henry Hyde was about the biggest name involved, he was in the leadership ... but the story was ancient, like 20-30 years old, and I think Hyde's wife had heard it all years before.
It would have been sensational if he'd caught Billy Graham and Robert Schuller in a hot tub with six Filipina prostitutes and a couple of rentboys or something. But that was the best Centerfold Larry and his gumshoes could do.
There was the slug of an ex-boyfriend who put Laura Schlessinger's nude photos (that she'd brainlessly let *him* shoot [I can hear her now: "Honey, didn't it ever occur to you that relationships end, and that sometimes there are hard feelings, and that if that happens he will still have those photos?!!"]) from 15-20 years before on Bartcop .... but that was over her stand against homosexuality and "gay marriage" and the fact that she was about to launch a TV show. Slugtrail Larry didn't have anything to do with that.
I'm afraid you may be right. He's plugged into people that would make LBJ look like the Angel Gabriel.
Yes, and I have agreed with you all along.
Hey Keith,
Lost your moral sensor? You’re so empty, I don’t believe you ever had one!
1998 Cornell Senior Convocation Speech - excerpt
“There are days now when my line of work makes me ashamed, makes me depessed, makes me cry. And it occurs to me that this moral sensor has been fine-tuned within the walls of this campus. Forty years ago the great news broadcaster Edward R. Murrow got up in front of the convention of the radio and television news directors and announced that without moral direction all this great medium would become was “wires and lights in a box,” and there are days when I wish it would still be even that idealistic.
About three weeks ago I awakened from my stupor on this subject and told my employers that I simply could not continue doing this show about the endless investigation and the investigation of the investigation, and the investigation of the investigation of the investigation. I had to choose what I felt in my heart was right over what I felt in my wallet was smart. I did not tell them they had 24 hours. I did not threaten them. I let them balance for themselves their professional and moral forces and set their timetable. I await their answer. Of course, I am not buying any new furniture for my home.”

that is exactly right! And the same thing happened when the WH went after Rush, remember? His ratings soared. And if Rush or Beck keep only 10% of the curious who tune in... that is still a huge #.
Olberman is signing his own death warrant if he thinks he can take down Glen Beck....
Thanks.
THANK YOU for the heads up. I wish I had known about this about 3 weeks ago, when parts of the 1977 NBA Finals betw Philadelphia & Portland were scrubbed from YouTube! Oh well, better late than never. :-)
Sounds like Keithy has some tinkle going down his leg. Maybe Cwissy Matthews can help him with that.
LOL! Good one!
