Keith Olbermann: "The Scum That Is This Assassin Breitbart"

[Hissyspit]

From Special Comment.

Started with the Dreyfuss case. "How far we have come. We can pull a Dreyfuss," faster than the French could.

"I have been told I have been over the top (warning about Fox and right-wing propaganda)... and today the truth lies before you bleeding."

"Let me be clear, what you see on the Fox News channel is the UTTER PERVERSION of journalism."

"The assassins on the right have been enabled..."

"The people around him have allowed this President to be dumbed down."

"I've got no business speaking up for the American people... but we ALL would like to apologize to you... but mostly I'd like to thank you for being an outstanding person."

"Only one of us in all of this... has done her job correctly - you, Ms. Sherrod..."

1. I think he's called him scum twice so far.

Not enough times as far as I'm concerned.

7. I believe the final count was 3 scums, and one "pornographic propagandist"!

[Hissyspit]

9. Several "assassin"s in there, too.

3. If Faux is smart, they wont escalate this..

But they're not smart.

This could start a media war. I kind of hope it does.

4. This is excellent

Wake up Obama

[Metta]

5. On the money, as always.

... telling it. You go, Keith.

[Whisp]

6. if this rant ends up doing some good I will be happy.

but most likely, as with newstertainers, it will be a mano 0' mano or whatever thats called between the Becks and Obermann and all parties will relish in the fracas.

This is just show business.

Hope it's more, but I don't think so.

8. a very good piece. Thanks, KO.

11. Can smart people be

'dumbed down' without their permission &/or cooperation?

[Nothing Without Hope]

17. Yes, exactly. He doesn't strike me as the type to be

passive about this. Claiming Obama is being dumbed down is, in my opinion, just one more mode of reality denial. Obama is what he is, and that is not the Second Coming.

13. "Fox" and "News" should never be used in the same sentence.

They are diametrically opposed.

Give em hell Keith.

14. All I can say is 'WOW'

His best Special Comment!

15. It was a great comment.

Perfect. He slammed his own network also for giving a platform to scumbag Breitbart to whine on. Although that could turn out to be evidence in court. I think it was in that interview that Breitbart admitted that his airing of the video was in revenge for the NAACP's charges of racism against the Teabaggers.

'Scum' yes, and to think anyone, after the ACORN crimes, would not look at the source and demand to see the full video.

:applause: for Keith, this was the best comment on this whole affair I've heard since it began. The rest of the media has mostly ignored the role Breitbart et al played in this.
