Baltimore Sun's David Zurawik let this week's Deutsch dump sink in for a day or two before writing about it. So here goes:
...here I come to write once again about what a reckless TV figure Keith Olbermann is -- and how irresponsible MSNBC and NBC News management are for giving him a national platform and the network's credibility to spread his innuendo, invective and smears. Olbermann tries to talk like he's Edward R. Murrow, but he operates in the dirty tradition of Joe McCarthy. Oh boy. Olbermann, who's expected back on the air tonight after a colonoscopy (TMI, I know), might have something to say about that.
But first, Olbermann responds to TVNewser, "[Zurawik] is entirely wrong on the facts, of course. But he's got the right idea about 'waiting' so he doesn't sound quite so hysterical. Only his time frame is wrong - instead of 24 hours he should try 24 years."
Sorry..

Don't compare Olbermann to a great American.

Olberman like McCarthy? I was thinking more like Frankenstein’s monster. I think he has about the same IQ, too. It’s a beautiful match.
If only he WERE. McCarthy was a patriot. Murrow was a fellow-traveller.
I’ve never managed to finish that book. I get nerve-popping angry after just a few pages.
I was going to mention that McCarthy was an American patriot who did TRY to expose a serious threat to our Republic, while Olbermann is a flame throwing hate monger,,, but you guys beat me to it.
Olbrmann got a colonoscopy? I thought that was a regular occurance for him.
He’s still around??? I thought ESPN got rid of him.
colonoscopy huh? Did his doctor manage to locate Olbermann’s brain?????
This Should Make Olbermann’s Head Explode !!
Yep I heard it was an all day job too since he is such a huge @$$! ;)
Most of the time he’s not wearing a headlight so he can’t look around.
Apparently, leftists like Olbermann and MSNBC are incapable of feeling embarrassment, no matter how idiotic and/or criminal their actions. See also Clinton, Bill and Frank, Barney.
