Olberman's 9/11 "Special Comment" is being replayed!

[MoonRiver]

And by doing so, MSNBC JUST GAVE JR. THE FINGER! :bounce:

1. I saw it the first time... it's just as powerful the second time

So, the cynic in me wants to start a betting pool...

days until KO is yanked from the airwaves.

My bet is 45 to 60 days.

[MoonRiver]

2. I don't think so.

Maybe after the first airing, although I'm sure he had to clear the comment with his producers. Absolutely not after the second airing. I'm betting that MSNBC is 100% behind their biggest star and viewer draw! Otherwise they would have NEVER allowed that devastating (to bush) 9/11 "special comment" from Keith to be shown again. :D

GO KEITH!!!! :kick:

7. Yeah, but I think this may have finally penetrated the

boardrooms of GE. My guess is that they will want to quietly terminate the muckraker that causing
them grief with the repukes in charge of things.

[waiting for hope]

18. Here's a snippet that

got me again - the 20th time I've seen it:

"Instead they bicker and buck pass. They thwart private efforts, and jostle to claim credit for initiatives that go nowhere. They spend the money on irrelevant wars, and elaborate self-congratulations, and buying off columnists to write how good a job they're doing instead of doing any job at all."

I am quite sure all the big wigs over at MSNBC knew what he was saying.

8. Plus, they had him on their Today Show this morning.

I don't think they would allow that if they weren't supporting him.

[MoonRiver]

9. Exactly!

I wish I had seen that show.

3. KO is MSNBC's meal

ticket....Abrams would make a BIG mistake doing that.....(remember CBS/Couric)

[bleever]

4. Every time is see it, I'm more convinced that it is a classic moment

in television history.

His passion is so genuine and so very well-expressed.

[onecent]

5. I was glued to the TV - for the second time. What a magnificant

speech. WOW WOW.

I pray for Keith's safety.

6. .

i emailed the utube thingy to my sis and her hubby....they now tune into KO and they LOVE him !!

normally all they watch is reality shows and movies !!

[MoonRiver]

10. My elderly mom and dad (former Repubs) watch Keith every night.

He's their favorite commentator. :)

11. Saw it for the first time tonight

Very powerful. Kick ass Keith!!!

[applegrove]

12. I'd love to see it. Sounds amazing. I read a transcript..is it on U Tube?

[MoonRiver]

13. Probably. But I have to admit I don't know much about UTube.

:blush:

[applegrove]

14. Youtube? Is that how it is spelt?? I think so.

[MoonRiver]

17. Lol, like I say I don't know much about "You"tube.

work, and you'll hit lots of sites.

20. It will be played in History classes 100 years from now....

[babylonsister]

22. I agree. KO is now a bellwether if a person can be one. nt

[johnnydrama]

23. haha

I was helping my mom with her Tivo last weekend, and noticed Countdown on her season passes.

Darn, mom has game.

[Raksha]

24. I FINALLY got to see it!

My speakers weren't working until tonight and I'm also on dial-up, so I didn't even try to watch the video online. I read the transcript, but without the audio and video you just don't get the full effect. It was as powerful as everyone says!
