Olbermann ratings hallucinations

Keith Olbermann has an interesting way of interpreting ratings. He must be an optimist with how he views his ratings ( since he gets clobbered every night by O'Reilly, Glenn and most other Fox shows). Last night, he "intruded" into his own conversation with 'the facts" about his ratings. He claimed to be the highest rated show out there in the cable news world. That's not even close to true, but when you hear his logic on HOW he justifies it, well, you'll get a good laugh. Ref. Source 8

Olbermann making a fool of himself

Ok, that's probably a headline that could be written every single day of the year, but it's especially true today. Keith decided to report on how many people came out to see Glenn's updated version of The Christmas Sweater in theaters last week -- and the event was a huge success. But, one little known liberal blogger posted some unverified attendance numbers in a few isolated theaters. Olbermann, like any good reporter, took those numbers straight on to the air, throwing in some made up ratings numbers as well. Glenn reacts to Olbermann on radio. Ref. Source 1

Keith Olbermann needs a mirror

The nutty host from MSNBC went on another faked outrage rant recently, accusing all Tea Party crowds of looking all white. The Dallas Tea Party took exception to this and produced an ad that shows very clearly the diversity in the crowd. Unfortunately for Keith, he can't quite say the same for the lineup on his network. Check out this great challenge from the Dallas Tea Party. Ref. Source 2

Olbermann: This is America, darn it!

Keith Olbermann turned on his manufactured outrage this week and put on a community-theater-worthy performance on the topic of the Ground Zero mosque. Glenn has a few clips from the guy who used to make a living playing clips of hockey games. Ref. Source 9

You're fired! Olbermann OUT at MSNBC

In a sudden, relatively unexpected move Keith Olbermann announced on Friday that 'he was told' it would be his last show. The writing was on the wall after several in house altercations clearly irked the suits at MSNBC - enough to send their top rated host packing. Glenn once predicted that the Comcast merger could mean trouble for hosts like Olbermann - and Olbermann ironically said Glenn had 'no idea' about the TV business. Ref. Source 6
