Hey, you can't see Dick Morris make a fool of himself if you don't
watch Fox.

I'm just writing about the "news" programs on Faux. Their commentators,
such as Hannity, O'Rally, and soon, Beck, are just plain trash.

They have their news slant, but actually have a better news arm than
the other networks from what I've seen. CNN still reigns on the
international front.
I think Hannity and Beck are idiots. If you can ignore O'Reilly's
pomposity - difficult, but doable - he's not bad if you're interested
in the subject matter he's discussing. Good polemicist.
You actually get different points of view, agree or not.
All IMHO.

I watched O'Rally a couple of times because I was wondering why
Olbermann kept poking fun at him. I understood almost immediately. You
call O'Rally pompous...I suppose my calling him a gasbag is about the same.

My favorite cable commentator is Rachel Maddow. She's very smart, very
fast, and very nice. Also very funny.

Not interested. Because like Olbermann - who I heard got her the show
- she surrounds herself with people who agree with her.
And like him, she beats the same drum over and over and over.
Booooring. Pretty much like Fox gets on a rag about something.
With Olbermann, Maddow and you it's Palin at the Turkey Farm.
With Fox it's Eric Holder pardoning Adolf Hitler.
Hey, that's what boats, the channel flipper and mouse button are for.
Escape from the boring or repetitious.
IMHO.

Funny, I have never heard Holder mentioned on FOX.. Olbermann just
sets off my "gaydar" like most of his cronies at the least watched
"news" channel in history....

They ragged on Holder for a couple days. At least.
Think Olbermann is a fag?
Never got that impression, but he is one silly guy.
Before he got his own show he was pretty "straight" with the news and
commentary. Now he sets off my "gagdar."

Well, not gay in a sexual manner, just gay... can't explain. Anyway,

I am not normally a violent guy, but the small LCD television I use in my
office almost bought the farm a couple of time while trying to watch that
smug, slime filled jerk.

I noticed last night that his hair transformation is almost complete. Dark
to silver grey in about 3 months.
Must be a highly stressful job, counting all his money, huh?

Unlike Sean Hannity, whose comments gave the impetus to a brain-dead
conservative to shoot up a Unitarian church, nothing Olbermann has said
has sparked a braindead liberal into shooting up a Baptist church.

I just don't see how anybody could consider him and most over there as
serious newscasters. I have a feeling it's more entertainment to most
viewers, kind of like listening to Jon Stewart or reading the Daily
Kos. My oldest listens to nothing but NPR, no TV, and sometimes reads
the New York Lies on line. Most currant issues go right over her head,
but she has all the talking points and considers herself informed..
It's just nuts...

Olbermann is not considered a "newscaster," and neither is my gal
Rachel. They are commentators, just like Hannity and O'Rally, but not
nearly as nasty as their Faux News counterparts.
