He happens to be on sometimes when I am sitting down to dinner, and I manage to watch him for five minutes to see how the insane people are seeing the news. Don't worry about your mix-up, he's not THAT different from Chrissy, truth be told--Chrissy just comes off more normal. Olberman is one of those so-awful-I-gotta-see things that seem to be taking over TV; once your curiosity is passed, off he goes.
As for the 9-11 widow, I was squirming listening to her completely distort the point of the Rove appearance. I've got tons of sympathy for those whose loved ones died in 9-11 but I don't feel the need to get their permission to have an opinion about how to properly respond to the attacks.
Amen to your post---I think Olberman is so bitter about his TV career, tanking at every turn, that he has decided to become the "Art Bell" of TV....all conspiracy, no facts...
Don't feel too uncomfortable about some of the 9/11 widows, they even travelled with Kerry's campaign last year, and were "eating up" the attention...this is much more about fame and politics, and not much about grief at this point.
