The concept of "timezones" not having entered their addled brain, it was then realized by cooler heads that the posting was actually made two hours after the east coast showing.

I wonder how many people got banned from leftist discussion boards until they clued in to the concept of timezones? ;-)

Poster #2: Uhh, guys? It's Pacific time, the observation was made well after the show aired.
Poster #3: ZOT! Your account has been cancelled. You're obviously a Repuglican tool sent here to sow dissent and confusion among our highly intelligent ranks!

It's not clear to me if Olbermann included the time stamp business tonight in his conspiracy theory, but to show what I'm referring to, Buckhead (courtesy ping to you as I link your post explaining how you came to make your analysis and post) posted this explanation of how he formed his opinion.

The person who claimed something was up with the time stamp was reading FR with the pacific timezone enabled so read his post as "8:59":

Buckhead explains here
