Keith Olbermann better start adding some lies to his resume; either MSNBC goes away or his job does when the new boss shows up.

Tucker Carlson started out with a good format on msnbc. All they needed to do was to get rid of the dike they had on every night.

The liberal weenies determined that it would be better to move him to 11pm est. so few, if any, would watch.

I truly think that the liberals that run the MSM would rather have ratings in the toilet, than to allow anyone to tell the truth.

NBC has dropped from first to fourth in the ratings among broadcast networks — and saw a drop of some $1 billion in advertising sales during the most recent upfront, the period when network execs unveil new shows to advertisers.

RICK KAPLAN
Job in jeopardy.

Bill Clinton Lapdog Is Now
ABC’s Top Dog

If you liked the liberally slanted war coverage on ABC earlier this year, you should love ABC during Campaign 2004. In February, ABC News rehired long-time producer Rick Kaplan on a temporary basis to oversee its live news coverage. Yesterday, ABC placed Kaplan in a seat of great political influence: senior vice president in day-to-day charge of World News Tonight, Nightline, This Week with George Stephanopoulos, and the ABC News Political Unit.

Kaplan has been the prime example of a TV news producer who did not just blur, but demolished the wall between reporting on liberal politicians and openly helping them. Here’s a brief summary:

1992: While executive producer of ABC’s Prime Time Live, Rick Kaplan advised candidate Bill Clinton on how to deal with the media uproar over his affair with Gennifer Flowers. After failing to get him on ABC, he advised Clinton in phone calls on how to handle the 60 Minutes interview.

Weeks later, when Clinton’s campaign struggled in the New York primary, Kaplan rode to the rescue again, getting Clinton booked on the Don Imus radio show. Kaplan not only arranged the interview, he prepared him for it — and ABC cameras taped both ends of the conversation and aired it on Nightline. Later, Kaplan did not deny a Spy magazine report that he boasted of attending Clinton campaign staff meetings and helped set up the campaign’s press office.

1993: While executive producer of ABC’s World News Tonight, Kaplan stayed overnight in the Lincoln Bedroom at Clinton’s behest. He also “played golf with Bill shortly before the inauguration and watched movies with both Clintons at the Governor's mansion,” The New Republic reported.

1997: In reporting on a two-hour CNN special on campaign finance produced by Kaplan, U.S. News found that Kaplan demanded that staffers “limit the use of the word 'scandal' in reporting on Clinton's campaign fundraising woes.” The phrase “Clinton scandal” was never uttered.

1998: As the Lewinsky scandal broke, Kaplan leapt into action at CNN with two-hour specials attacking any and all Clinton critics. The programs included “Media Madness,” which asked “what the hell are you people doing” probing Bill Clinton’s sex life?; and “Investigating the Investigator,” which described Ken Starr as “suspect” over his “religious and Republican roots.” In May, Kaplan devoted an hour to demonizing Rep. Dan Burton, who was compared by reporter Bruce Morton to English despot Oliver Cromwell.

2000: Kaplan stayed overnight in the White House for a second time. “No, I do not feel embarrassed, ashamed or compromised in any way, shape or form,” Kaplan said after President Clinton gave his daughter Alexis, 21, a two-and-a-half hour White House tour.

The November 20, 2000 Newsweek reported Kaplan had helped Al Gore prepare for a debate against Bill Bradley. “At a rehearsal for a California debate on March 1, former CNN President Rick Kaplan joked, 'Let's do the debate now.'” He was still CNN president in March.

If Kaplan’s campaign machinations aren’t enough to raise ethical eyebrows, it should be remembered that Kaplan was at the helm of ABC’s Prime Time Live in 1991, when they aired an expose against the Food Lion supermarket chain using undercover producers who falsified their resumes and staged events. Food Lion sued, and a jury fined Kaplan $35,000, which a judge later overturned. As CNN president, Kaplan’s idea of creating a program called NewsStand began in 1998 with a quickly-retracted “Tailwind” expose charging that U.S. soldiers gassed “dissidents” and children in Laos during the Vietnam War. With a record like this, how does Kaplan keep getting the top jobs? — Tim Graham

MSNBC, the New Clinton News Network?
By Lowell Ponte
FrontPageMagazine.com | February 18, 2004

MSNBC DIED THIS WEEK, but few have yet noticed.

Third among cable news networks, this joint venture begun in July 1996 by Microsoft and General Electric, owner of NBC, has lagged far behind rival Fox News Channel and CNN in viewers. But it has offered an alternative source of viewpoints, ranging from “Hardball” hosted by veteran Democrat Chris Matthews to “Scarborough County” hosted by former Republican Congressman Joe Scarborough from the conservative Florida panhandle.

snip

Rick Kaplan, 56, is a huge, energetic bear of a man who got into the wrong profession a third of a century ago. Ever since, he has tried to twist his jobs as a broadcast news producer and executive into the role he wanted instead – partisan political operative, Leftist ideologue, and, since 1977, political ally and intimate friend of Bill and Hillary Clinton.

Along his Leftward way, Kaplan has tarnished the reputations of broadcast network news departments from ABC to CNN….and he is about to do the same to ruin MSNBC. Our only consolation is that his partisan propaganda will be infecting one of the tiniest audiences in all of television. The larger lesson is what this reveals about an NBC willing to hire such a person to run one of its networks.

“Kaplan was born in the Rogers Park section of Chicago,” wrote David Margolick in a January 1998 Vanity Fair profile. “His childhood was filled with friends and Democratic politics; Chicago mayor Richard J. Daley and John F. Kennedy were icons in his home.

“He envisioned a life of political activism,” Margolick continued, “and joined the 1968 presidential campaign of Senator Eugene McCarthy as an advance man. A week later, when Bobby Kennedy won the California primary, Kaplan prepared to switch sides, and headed to Kennedy’s hotel to meet him. He ended up that night alone on a Santa Monica beach, watching the waves, listening to radio reports about Kennedy’s slow death. He contemplated a radically altered future outside politics.”

Turning instead to broadcast journalism, Rick Kaplan was a producer for Walter Cronkite in 1977 when Susan Thomases introduced him to the obscure Attorney General of Arkansas named Bill Clinton.

The Lincoln Bedroom Guest List

February 25, 1997

bedroom WASHINGTON (AllPolitics, Feb. 25) -- Here's the full list of most of those who have stayed in the Lincoln Bedroom since President Bill Clinton took office, courtesy of The Associated Press. Not included are the president's relatives and their guests -- 35 in all -- and First Daughter Chelsea Clinton's guests -- 72 total.

Some of the interesting names on the list are singer Barbra Streisand, catalogue retailer Lillian Vernon, playwright Neil Simon, film director and producer Steven Spielberg, former Chrysler chairman Lee Iaccoca, the Rev. Billy Graham, Apple Computer co-founder Steven Jobs, nutrition guru Dean Ornish, and, not least, actress Jane Fonda and her husband, CNN honcho Ted Turner.

The list is divided into: Arkansas friends (370 of them); longtime friends (155 of them); friends and supporters (111 of them); public officials and dignitaries (128 total); and arts and letters (67 total).

Those invited because of their political support are largely in the "friends and supporters" section. But many of those on the list identified as "Arkansas friends" or "longtime friends" are also major donors to Clinton or the Democratic Party, such as Robert Farmer, who served as finance committee chairman of Clinton's 1992 campaign, and billionaire John Kluge.
