Greta Van Susteren Thinks This Keith Olbermann Thing Is Silly

Online
» 103 comments

We couldn’t help but be delighted by Greta Van Susteren‘s recent blog post – “OMG…this IS a bit silly …can we stop the hand wringing over Keith Olbermann?” – weighing in on this whole Keith Olbermann kerfuffle. (Hadn’t you heard? He found out he had a long-lost half-sister in Milwaukee.) (JK.)

Van Susteren, frustrated with what she sees as the media’s overwrought “hand wringing” over Olbermann’s departure from MSNBC, did not mince words when it came to letting her readers know where their focus should lie:

Keith Olbermann did not die. He either quit or got fired. He had a good run at MS/NBC and will probably pop up some place else in the future. The silliness in the media over his departure is growing more pathetic by the day. The lugubrious statements and hand wringing about his exit are bizarre. Being a cable news anchor is not heroic. It is a very easy job and we get paid very handsomely for it (even when we get fired!)

So…to all those wringing their hands when anyone comes or goes, including Keith Olbermann, get over it!

OLBERLOAD!

Of course, it isn’t clear whether or not Olbermann was fired from Countdown, left of his own accord, or came to some sort of mutual agreement with the powers that be at MSNBC (perhaps after “borrowing” a stapler or some Post-Its or a water cooler from the network’s offices), but one thing is for sure: Van Susteren does not want to hear us talk about it.

    His sister wasn’t lost. She was hiding.

    Greta’s got a mean case of Olbermann derangement syndrome, just like Shelly.

    Somebody send this article to Tommy Christopher .

  • George C

    Greta is correct . Being a cable new anchor is not heroic. Now , reporting a change in someones “bio” information on their Twitter account , that is heroic.

    Tommy is on suicide watch.

    Greata hit the nail on the head. Olbermann was making millions sitting in a chair for an hour a day spewing hate and vile rhetoric. Yet if you listen to his final show, you will hear him talk about how hard it was for him and how he had to trudge on like he was in a fucking war. Shame on him and the sycophants that support his mental illness by making him believe he is important.

    Greta-
    This is a big story for the MSM because they love him and everything he stands for.

    Fun fact about Greta I only learned recently: her father was one of Joseph McCarthy’s best friends. Carry on.

    That makes her even greater, her father was best friends with the man who set the stage for neoconservative bullshit

    this little woman is funny,most of us will not forget what keith did during the milking of 9/11 by bush and his friends.Keith gave us a voice,whiles bill orieley and fox noise were telling us to shut up because the country is at war.a war that the bush people and fox noise lied us into.He was one of the brave reporters that spoke out,and there were not many.what kills fox noise is he was right and they were wrong.
    well fox you made millions and you have blood on your hands,sleep well,enjoy your blood soaked wealth.

    Those are Dims talking about Iraq’s WMDs.

    The Dims lied to Bush about the WMDs.

    Here are more Dim lies:

    “We know that he has stored secret supplies of biological and chemical weapons throughout his country.”
    - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

    “Iraq’s search for weapons of mass destruction has proven impossible to deter and we should assume that it will continue for as long as Saddam is in power.”
    - Al Gore, Sept. 23, 2002

    “We have known for many years that Saddam Hussein is seeking and developing weapons of mass destruction.”
    - Sen. Ted Kennedy (D, MA), Sept. 27, 2002

    Son, you obviously are an HP poster where you can just spew out lies and all the libs agree with ya.

    And btw, what was Clinton doing while Bush served in the national Guard and ASKED to go to Vietnam? He was in England protesting against his country.

    And on Bush? He volunteered to go to Vietnam and CBS knew it when the spread their lies about him!

    Report Says Dan Rather Personally Involved in CBS News Campaign to Destroy President Bush; Accuracy

    By Accuracy In Media | January 10, 2005

    Accuracy in Media said today that the newly released report on how CBS News handled the Bush National Guard story contains a bombshell that further undermines the credibility of CBS News anchorman Dan Rather and his close collaborator and associate, producer Mary Mapes.

    The report reveals on page 130 that Mapes, one of those fired because of the scandal, had documented information in her possession before the controversial September 8 broadcast that George W. Bush, while in the Texas Air National Guard, “did volunteer for service in Vietnam but was turned down in favor of more experienced pilots.” This information is critical because Dan Rather, in the broadcast, insinuated that Bush was among the “many well-connected young men [who tried to] pull strings and avoid service in Vietnam.”

    AIM Editor Cliff Kincaid explained the significance of the panel’s revelation:

    “Mapes, who was very close to Rather and enjoyed his confidence, had the evidence exonerating Bush of this malicious charge. The report shows that there were multiple credible sources to prove that Bush did not try to avoid Vietnam by going into the National Guard and that he was in fact willing to go to Vietnam as a pilot.

    However, CBS News deliberately kept this information from its viewers and conveyed an opposite impression because Rather, Mapes & Company were trying to depict Bush as a coward who, as Commander-in-Chief, was sending American soldiers to their deaths in Iraq.”

    Are you intentionally misreading my comments? I didn’t say that liberals like that don’t exist anywhere. I said that I do not personally know any liberals who hate America or believe Bush is solely responsible for starting a war. That doesn’t mean they aren’t out there, it just means your overly broad generalizations are divorced from reality.

    They are all over this site… it means who decide not to believe what you see and read, turn on MSNBC any time of day..Im sure if they liberal found out you love America and dont blame Bush for everything, they would not be happy… It seems to be their mantra for the past 10 years… And my broad generalizations are based on watching tv, going on sites like this and Politico and seeing the vitriol and hate provided by liberals..Its quite easy to find

  • paulmdoro

    You think the comments at 2 websites accurately represent the views of millions of Americans? I don’t watch MSNBC. Neither does anyone I know. You need to broaden your horizons a bit.

    Are you intentionally misreading my comments? I didn’t say that liberals like that don’t exist anywhere. I said that I do not personally know any liberals who hate America or believe Bush is solely responsible for starting a war. That doesn’t mean they aren’t out there, it just means your overly broad generalizations are divorced from reality.

    If you are different from these other liberals than, i guess it doesnt apply to you..Kudos on that.

    It’s Clinton fault that Bush did not listen to Scott Ritter.

    Did Clinton put Ritter on Saddam’s payroll? That’s weird. You miss Saddam, don’t you?

    I am not different from most liberals. Most liberals do not hate America or believe that Bush is solely responsible for starting a war. That is why I am objecting to your generalizations.

    Visit the nearly 60k lost lives caused by a war started by JFK, and escalated by LBJ.

    So your view is that the VN war was ill advised?

    And on Bush? He volunteered to go to Vietnam and CBS knew it when the spread their lies about him!

    That’s mighty brave of Bush to join a reserve unit that never deployed to Vietnam.

    The sites I regularly visit feature plenty of hatred and nasty comments from both sides of the aisle.

    I’m not saying it doesn’t exist. I’m saying it’s not as black and white as you make it out to be.

    Red herrings will not work, Scott Ritter told the truth and Bush did not listen. Stop listening to Glenn Beck.

  • Obeezy

    Ok. I can see that.. Well see ,you and i had a disagreement, and not once did we attack each other personally. Maybe there is hope after all….

  • Pablo

    Ritter is a child molester, not a red herring.

    Hey, dullard, he volunteered to go to Nam while slick Willie was protesting and Biden was getting a deferment like Cheney did.

    I am so happy to show what a liar you are about Bush’s service. Too bad you didn’t work with Rather when he propagated the lib lie about Bush. You too could have been fired!

    Irony is a completely foreign concept to Greta, i guess.

    1. She’s tired of the Keith Olbermann story.
    2. So instead of ignoring it, she POSTS about it.
    3. Which adds more to the Keith Olbermann story.
    4. Which is what Greta is complaining about at the beginning.

    Amazing.

    I don’t know why Greta is getting so pissy about Olbermann. Her friends at Fox News were having a major breakdown over Juan Williams’ rejection by PBS. They were so distraught they ended up hiring him at Fox full time. So maybe she should be giving that advice to her own network.

    Well, Great Susteren is an ragged old gasbag. Why are her ridiculous words even covered here? I do not watch Fox news for a good reason., and it pains me to come to my favorite sites and see her name and ugly mean face.

    Fun fact about Greta I only learned recently: her father was one of Joseph McCarthy’s best friends. Carry on.

    Bobby Kennedy was also a friend of McCarthy. Your point.

    You don’t watch Fox News yet you have the audacity to comment on something you don’t. Typical liberal logic.

    Olbermann was fired for being an asshole. Williams was fired because his opinion offended some Muslim somewhere.
