Olbermann's personal little emotional reaction to the 9/11 tribute at the

somebody finally woke up.

unchallenged. He needs to have the last word.


Good plan for him. Never saw somebody go downhill so fast. Thought
his head would explode. Apparently it did.
Matthews is very knowledgeable, like a walking encyclopedia, and
creative in thought. Probably because he's half nuts.
Brokaw is a gem. Gregory is very very good. Keeps an even keel in a
storm. Williams can be flaky.
I'll bet Scarborough feels pretty good about this after Uberhead, er,
Olbermann got on his case about telling the truth about some recent
polls.
These are just my opinions, and I may be off-the-wall myself.

I actual like Matthews, for the reasons you stated. He at least tries to
keep his personal political views in check, not always successfully, but he
tries. Although an acknowledged Dem ticket supporter, he went after another
prominent Obama supporter pretty hard one day, challenging him to cite any
Obama sponsored legislation or senate achievements. The guy couldn't and
Matthews made mincemeat out of him.

Brokaw is a class act. Williams is trying, but hasn't established himself
yet.
Gregory is fine, except he talks too much IMO. Several times while giving
his commentary during the RNC, I found myself wishing he would shut up for a
moment so we could hear what the current speaker was saying.

Scarborough is a nut case. He too, is led by a massive ego, IMO. Betcha
he's next to go.

But the worst is (was) Olbermann. He is the poorest excuse for a journalist
on record, I think. 4 million a year for *that*!?
