| changed_muh_name | Posted – 3/27/2007 7:49:55 AM | show profile Will Brain cover this?? Olbermann the worst hypocrite in the world!!!!!!! |
| changed_muh_name | Posted – 3/27/2007 7:58:41 AM | show profile Edward R. Olbermann the worst lounge act in the world!!!! |
| OneTwo | Posted – 3/27/2007 5:35:09 PM | show profile Yes Brian did cover it, stop asking that stupid question it's not original and about 9 times out of 10 when you say that it's a story that does get covered it which case you just look like an idiot. In any case the "called ugly by a frog" comment from Wallace was actually pretty funny. I never had him pegged as a comedian, who knew? |

| OneTwo | Posted – 3/27/2007 6:25:02 PM | show profile You bet I did. Candycanes for all! |
| MadAsHell | Posted – 3/27/2007 6:58:44 PM | show profile Wallace Vs. Olbermann Wallace huffs and puffs that he's the REAL journalist compared to Olbermann, yet basically calls the Big O fat and cracks jokes while guesting as on entertainment-y conservative radio show. Unlike Wallace, Olbermann never claimed to be a bigtime news man. He's a smart, heartfelt commentator. Meanwhile, Wallace deludes himself into thinking his spin is "news." He has all the credibility ? and wit ? of Scoop Brady. And that's being generous |
| brother-trucker | Posted – 3/27/2007 8:27:44 PM | show profile "Unlike Wallace, Olbermann never claimed to be a bigtime news man." That is false. Olbermann quotes Edward R. Murrow every night, for God's sake! That is Wallace's point, that Olbermann has never gone out and actually covered a breaking news story. Wallace has. It's very, very cut and dry and I doubt Olbermann will respond, because he doesn't have a leg to stand on. Let's make something else clear: Brian Stelter posts anti-Olbermann stories only when enough pressure is put on him to do so. |
| OneTwo | Posted – 3/27/2007 9:14:45 PM | show profile "Let's make something else clear: Brian Stelter posts anti-Olbermann stories only when enough pressure is put on him to do so." Oh will you get over yourself you friggin' psycho no one cares what you a couple other message board trolls think. By "enough pressure" you're referring to you and bigwhi rushing to the message boards to make comments like "Brian Stelter Worst Person in the World". You think that's pressuring anyone to do anything? I'd laugh but the sad thing is you're serious. If Brian or anyone at Media Bistro felt pressured by you than wouldn't the so called left wing bias of this blog have been done away with long ago when it first became a hot topic around here? The only thing more pathetic than you thinking this college kid has an influence on ratings or the news industry, is that you think YOU have influence over the blog. I'll tell Bigwhi to share his candy with you. |

| changed_muh_name | Posted – 3/28/2007 8:38:22 AM | show profile Brain didn't feel pressured?? Than why did he feel like he had to deny anything?? Why did Brain attack other websites that pointed out his liberal bias? |
| TruthOut | Posted – 3/28/2007 8:55:27 AM | show profile LOL. You mean more pathetic than One Two's passionate defenses of Olbermann and Brian? LOL. |
| changed_muh_name | Posted – 3/28/2007 10:07:27 AM | show profile OneTwo = Brian??? Damn i know many people named Brian. I still can't spell his name right bigwhi_9 worst person in the world!!! |
| robertcox | Posted – 3/28/2007 10:14:26 AM | show profile | email poster Now, now you two...you're BOTH wrong Chris Wallace was wrong to say that Keith has NEVER covered a breaking news story. He did report from the World Trade Center site and elsewhere in New York after 9/11. He worked for a local station in L.A. and then for ABC News Radio. He was nominated for an Edward R. Murrow Award (most likely a nomination initiated at his request) and the RTNDA gave him this award in 2002. It is also wrong to say that Keith has never put himself forward as a newsman or a "bigtime" newsman or whatever you want to call it. Countdown is billed as a "newscast". His job description at MSNBC is "newsanchor". In his new contract he demanded (and got) airtime on NBC Nightly News. Keith is not shy about mentioning his radio work after 9/11 in interviews or the Murrow Award. I do not recall a single interview where Keith has ever described himself as "commentator", "news analyst", "opinion journalist" or anything like that. Likewise, I do not recall him specifically calling himself a "journalist" or a "reporter" or a "newsman" or anything like that. If I had to guess its because Keith likes being able to jump back and forth between hard news and sports, between straight reporting and giving opinion, the sublime and the ridiculous and that it confuses people or bothers them is not only OK with KO but he likely enjoys people's consternation. |

| OneTwo | Posted – 3/28/2007 1:42:40 PM | show profile LOL LOL Yes TruthOut, quite a bit more pathetic than that LOL. Almost as pathetic as a guy who's so jealous of a 20 year old kid he spends every day picking on him over the internet under an alias LOL and keeps pretending to work in the news industry even after he's been caught contridicting himself on that numerous times LOL apparently impressing a bunch of internet strangers is important to him LOL and apparently he has a wife and kids, somehow a guy who can't get over an obession with a male college student he never met convinced a woman to marry him and give birth to his children, rriiigghht LOL. LOL and you still haven't responded to my challenge LOL, avoid the topic when you're trapped LOL kinda sounds like something Olbermann would do, doesn't it? LOL |
| OneTwo | Posted – 3/28/2007 1:49:37 PM | show profile "Brain didn't feel pressured?? Than why did he feel like he had to deny anything?? Why did Brain attack other websites that pointed out his liberal bias?" I thought he denied being an activist? And, according to the post from the guy who works for Media Bistro TVN gets over a million hits per month, which means hundreds of thousands of people visit this site regularly. Are you telling me out of hundreds of thousands of people, you, TruthOut, and brother-trucker are enough to intimidate a person? Are you telling me that? Is that honestly what you think? You three really are wacko aren't you? Oh well, maybe TruthOut will use his influence at that big paying, highly respectable, jealousy inducing job of his that he speaks so proudly of to get you a job when you grow up, so no worries. If you're lucky maybe he'll even introduce you to the wife and kids, and then take you to Never Never Land and you can meet his old friend Captain Hook. Man that's gonna be sweet! |
| changed_muh_name | Posted – 3/28/2007 2:56:01 PM | show profile Remember his one man protest against Sinclair broadcasting Group? Remember he picketed ,took photos,and blogged about it? In a few days he took it all down. Remember that? But yet he's no liberal activist. Why would someone from Media Bistro feel the need to come and defend him? Did Brian send him???? |
| changed_muh_name | Posted – 3/28/2007 3:09:03 PM | show profile OneTwo are you bi polar?When you make fun of others does it make you feel better? I bet if you got out of your parents basement and went outside you would feel better. If not,make sure you take your meds and rest.I will be praying for you. |
| OneTwo | Posted – 3/28/2007 3:35:46 PM | show profile Actually no, I don't remember that. I don't follow Brian's personal life. But if that's the case than yes you are right that that is activism. It still doesn't change the fact that it's not the three of you on this message board who are intimidating him, which was my point. And yeah, mocking internet obsessives in kind of a guilty pleasure I guess, but what can ya do? (and I don't really know how bipolar disorder fits in there so I won't touch that one). |

| OneTwo | Posted – 3/28/2007 3:38:05 PM | show profile woops, sorry about the double post. |
| changed_muh_name | Posted – 3/28/2007 7:20:37 PM | show profile People who are bi polar sometimes lash out at others to make up for their own lackings. Wow Olbermann gets shotdown by a pornstar. lol |
| TruthOut | Posted – 3/29/2007 12:29:33 PM | show profile One Two is an Olbermann fan. Of course they have mental problems. That's a given. |
| OneTwo | Posted – 3/29/2007 12:53:05 PM | show profile Alas, poor TruthOut is the stereotypical neocon internet troll. Can't accept that everyone who thinks he's sad isn't a far left loony. Keep on avoiding the subject TruthOut. And by the by, judging from your continuous disturbingly serious attitude about this whole "debate", my guess is if anyone around here is suffering from depression based mental disorders it's you friend. You're so serious all the time. Hell, at least bigwhi seems to have a sense of humor. What do you have? An imaginary family and raging jealousy of a college kid. Yikes... |
