Iranian Television Loves Keith Olbermann


Guest Guest

Recommended Posts

The folks at General Electric must be so proud of their cable news network MSNBC.

 

Not only does one of its top stars regularly debase the President of the United States, but also his most recent tirade actually garnered the attention of an Iranian television network.

 

Coincidentally, the good folks at Press TV are just as enamored with Keith Olbermann as his fans at Daily Kos (h/t JWF):

 

In a scathing commentary against President George W. Bush, MSNBC commentator Keith Olbermann declared Bush guilty of terrorism for playing what he sees as the fear card in an attempt to get the House to pass retroactive immunity for telecommunication companies that illegally helped the US government in its warrantless wiretapping program Thursday evening.

He also called Bush a fascist.

 

It must make MSNBC execs quite pleased to know their product is highly-regarded by one of America's sworn enemies. You think Ahmadinejad is a "Countdown" fan?

 

Of course, most American journalists would eschew getting praise from an Iranian television station. Alas, Olbermann likely will wear it as a badge of honor.

 

What does that say about his biases, and the idea that an American cable news network not only allows him to speak to the nation for 60 minutes five days a week, but also puts him in the role of commentator during debates and primary coverage?

 

On the flipside, maybe this makes good business sense.

 

Before you laugh, consider Olbermann's atrocious ratings in the States. Maybe MSNBC has given up on American viewers, and, instead, is actually appealing to Islamo-fascists around the world.

 

Wouldn't that explain a lot?

His ratings are low because people would rather live in fairy tale land then see the truth. He exposes liars.

 

hey, you want to talk about ratings?

 

The Biggest Loser and American Idol get huge ratings. Are you really surprised the sheep that watch those shows don't watch Keith?

 

We want to see fat people and wannbe singers, not people who tell the truth

if you want the truth...don't listen to Olberman. he is as one sided as they come. If the iranians love him so much, cant we just ship his secular progressive butt there? it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that olberman is just spewing hatred rather than the truth. MSNBC has an agenda and it is certainly one sided. My advice to you is watch all different news channels and get ALL the information and make your own decisions. And for the record american idol is sucking the intelligence out of this country.
