Olbermann refers to FR as the "lunatic, fringe website" and its members a "group of sociopaths"
MSNBC's Countdown with | 10/10/07

Posted on 10/09/2007 6:14:04 PM PDT by hole_n_one

While announcing his Worst Person in the World awards for today, Olbermann named Limbaugh because he cited "the lunatic, fringe website FRee Republic.com" as confirming that Graham Frost, saved by S chip public health care was a recipient of public aid because he and his sister go to private school, when, according to Olbermann, they are there on scholarship.

KO then said that the "group of sociopaths" at FRee Republic posted the home address of the Frost family , in what Olbermann presumed to be "in hopes that some psychotic will go there and attack them".

"...he and his sister go to private school, when, according to Olbermann, they are there on scholarship."

Gee... that contradicts what the Frost parents say. They say it's financial assistance. Perhaps Olbermann needs to get his story straight with the family before mouthing off.

"FR is being dissed on LGF too for my silly freep after the debate. I’m really saddened by that. :*("

Could you elaborate?

Strange that he’s put on the air since his ratings are low. I’m sure that has nothing to do with any alleged partisan media bias... /sarc

Here, in the comments section. :-( Charles, in charge of LGF, is really mad at FR, I guess because he is a Rudy supporter and a lot of people on FR are not--he seems to think freep=spam, although in my 'freep this poll' post, I NEVER told anyone to vote for a certain candidate. I did however point out that their poll was a more realistic one than the one on CNBC right after the debate. Charles believes because of this that FR is equal to KOS and the Dr. Paul/looney left supporters spamming polls. :-(

Excerpt from relevant portion of the transcript........

Speaking of which our runner up, comedian Rush Limbaugh.  Well, he went after Michael J. Fox, why not a 12-year-old kid.  Claims that the lunatic fringe Web site freerepublic.com has confirmed that Graham Frost, saved by SCHIP public health care after brain health injuries in a car accident is actually a fat cat recipient of government aid because he and his sister attend private schools.  In fact, they attend private schools because they‘re on scholarship.

And Free Republican is the group of sociopath who just posted the Frost family home address presumably in hope that some psychotic will go there and attack them.

Limbaugh adds, quote, “They send the kid out to lie.  They fill this kid‘s head with lies just as they have about some of these soldiers about me.”  Skip the subject of what your head is filled with.

Transcript says Free Republican, but that's not what was said.

In the video linked at #231 Olbermann clearly says Free Republic.

Only as the copy of the deed of their home exists, and they could easily be found without that post, so its a non sequitor.

KO is the sociopath.

Yes, the address was posted. The valuation of that house bears directly on the financial resources of this family the Democrats chose to showcase in their rebuttal to President Bush’s veto of SCHIP.

I say I could count the number of times I’ve seen his show on one hand... but to be accurate, I’d need a very serious shop accident first.

Hey Keith...the only thing I remember about you is your girlfriend who laughed at your inability to...let’s call it “perform”. Keep talking. That’s all we think of when we hear your name, no matter how desperately you try to change the subject.
hahahaha!!
What a dork.
