Olbermann in MSNBC Promo: 'We Must Ignore Partisanship'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 09/01/2008 9:18:08 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

The MSNBC promo bills the network as "the place for politics." Looks like it's the place for rib-ticklin' comedy, too. Check out Keith Olbermann's side-splitter from the ad:

KEITH OLBERMANN: This is one of those turning-point-in-history American elections. We as citizens must at some point ignore partisanship. Not that we may prosper as a nation, not that we may achieve, not that we may lead the world, but that merely, we may function.

VOICEOVER: MSNBC: The place for politics.

I do not know what that boy is smoking. I do know for sure that it is high quality and not cheap.

Is Olberman going to be on the Sunday Night Football telecasts again this year? I think I’ll skip their pregame and halftime shows.

He’s saying “You all know that I’m as partisan as they come. Just ignore that, and believe us when we say that MSNBC is not the official network of B.O. and Joe.”
