Title: Keith Olbermann or Bill Maher?
Post by: Dan-O on October 30, 2008, 08:44:59 AM
Which one would you rather punch right in their smug, smirking mug?

For me, it's a toss-up.

Guess you dont like people who actually call out the right wing for their bullshit.   Keith and Bill GREASE the right wing on a daily basis... with FACTS.... Your people are not too big on facts, I can see why you hate them...

Who really needs to be PUnched in the mouth?  Orielly and Hanity.

In answering the question...Obermann....B ill stikes me as a huge pussy who would run while Obermann would be under the impression he could defend himself. That said I'd hit him with a chair. Oreilly is a big guy and again would defend himself. Hanity would run.....but we both have the same type of dog so he's ok.

Olbermann has facts and quotes to back everything up.

Far-right pundits do a lot of question asking, taking lots of leaps of faith - almost into CT terrirory.

Left-wing pundits play 'gotcha' games and rub in mistakes - but they have a lot more fodder, as the repubs running shit have done a bad job and made lots of public mistakes

Olbermann is a complete asshole with his attitude.

O'Riley is not that bad, he's definitely not as far right (recently) as Olbermann is left.

Olbermann Watch Lists Keith's Top Ten Lies of 2007
By Lynn Davidson (Bio | Archive)
January 1, 2008 - 18:56 ET 

Johnny Dollar over at Olbermann Watch compiled a list of the orange-tinted “Countdown” host's Top Ten Lies of 2007 (h/t Conservathink).

Between doctoring quotes, misrepresenting TV ratings, obsessing over Michelle Malkin's ethnicity and crushing on Bill O'Reilly, the TV host who self-anointed himself as Edward R. Murrow's heir let loose with some tall tales.

While lie number one is my favorite (go read it), some of 2007's lying lowlights include Keith claiming Rosie O'Donnell never compared US troops to terrorists, stating Fox News' Roger Ailes is running Rudy Giuliani's presidential campaign or just lying about O'Reilly and News. Here's a little sample (bold mine):

#5 - ... But our #5 entry shows Keith "Man on Fan" Olbermann at his most desperate. So eager was he to protect a possible NBC hire (Rosie O'Donnell) he doctored her words (sound familiar?) to claim she never compared US troops to terrorists.


Story Continues Below Ad ↓

Then he blamed "Fox Noise"--another lie to protect his own sorry butt, since the people who accused Rosie of the troops/terrorism comparison were Joe Scarborough, Chris Matthews, and Howard Fineman--not on Fox, but on MSNBC!


#3 - When Oralmann gets a bee in his bonnet, there is nothing that will stand in the way of OlbySpin. So he will pretend Richard Armitage never existed and assert that Karl Rove was an "original leaker" of Valerie Plame. To attack GWB, he'll invent a nonexistent checklist of rules for Presidential pardons. But his blatant dishonesty about waterboarding is our #3 lie. Olby's duplicity about Daniel Levin was so shamelessly barefaced that even the fawning mainstream media called him on it, something that gave John Gibson no end of pleasure.


For #2 on the list, Olbermann--from the safety of his plush anchor chair--dismissed the two Iraqis who blog at the award-winning Iraq The Model as just some “anonymous Iraqi bloggers” as a way to bash Bush. Nice.

Keith tried to make Omar and Mohammed seem like unreasonable sources because they are “two dentists.” In a classy move, Olbermann ridiculed their opinions as unimportant while trying to make Bush look uninformed for quoting those two lowly Iraqi bloggers. Better alert CAIR, that seems rather Orientalist to me. As usual, he misrepresented someone's words to score political points:

 #2 - Did you know that Keith Olbermann doesn't indulge in personal attacks? Why no, he's above all that. Sure, tell that to Liz Claman. In #2 of our countdown, observe how Fat A**, to fuel yet another error-ridden critique of GWB, is willing to smear two writers: ridicule their professions, lie about their success... There can be no doubt that Keith Olbermann is The Model of a Liar.

I don't watch O'Reilly that much, I'm usually working at that time. I've stomached Olberman a few times only to see that he's as wacked as the rest of the Hollywood left.

I just don't like either of their faces!

They're both smug, smirking, self-satisfied, know-it-all punks.  I just have personal issues with guys like that and I want to punch them in the face...  that's all there is to it. :)

I listen to Rush and Olbermann each day.

They're both disrespectful a$$holes, let's be honest.

Remember Rush imitating Michael J Fox's convulsions?

I disagree... Olberman is a a left winger obviously, but he backs his rant with factual evidence, videos and quotes directly from the source.

Rush, fuck where can I start? Hes just pure rhetoric

Sorry Rob, but I've seen enough of Olberman to know the facts and videos he supposedly uses are mostly distorded. The videos are edited to fit his agenda as well as his other "facts". If you go to Rush's site he not only lists his sources to back up his stories but at the bottom of each transcript, he give back up material to back his sources. I remember one time Olberman was bashing Rush and he had some "proof" . Well as it turned out, his "proof" was taken well out of context. Rush confronted told him to come on the show and explain and in true lib fashion, refused.

Yep, agreed.

O'riley is absolutely not as right as it gets. 

I tried to listen to Olbermann many times.  His condescending sarcastic attitude makes me nauseated.
