Of course Keith went after a story about Dems retiring since he and his network are in the DNC’s pocket and are the “defenders of the faith”.It’s not about CNN it’s about being a left wingnut.Keith would skewer any network that dared suggest the Democratic party is remotely in trouble or being hurt by the left agenda.Just like he goes after anyone any where that criticizes any Dem bill,plan,etc etc.Look,Olbermann is a robot and his programming is working as installed.

CNN ought not be singled out by Olbermann or anyone else. The fact is American cable news is nothing short of an abomination, contributing greatly to the “dumbing down” of our nation. Cable “journalists” seize on a headline, which may or may not contain a kernel of truth, then repeat it all day long. Odd that a medium which could be used, because of its richness of time, to elaborate on stories merely rehashes soundbites mindlessly all day and all night. While I view FOX as the worst culprit, by far, MSNBC and CNN are no slouches in the race to turn us into a decidedly ignorant people.

Yes dhg, Olbermann is openly supportive of the left. That doesn’t mean that he isn’t being truthful. You see, the teabaggers and charlatans over at FAUX News are openly supportive of the right. The difference that is lost on fools like you is that the right relies on lies and mis-information in order to influence tools like you and you eat it up without question. Shoot the messenger all you want dhg, the segment was still fact-based although as this thread suggests Mr. Olbermann would have been equally justified in pointing out that most in the MSM have been using this slant despite a much larger percentage of Republicans retiring this year as well. The Republican Party has SIX members that will not seek re-election in this cycle. Explain how two Democrats retiring constitutes a mass exodus as implied by that “liberal media” you fools are constantly railing against while there is been practically no mention of the Reps? You also call Olbermann a “robot”. Pretty funny considering the direct hotline that all at FOX enjoyed during the Bush Administration. You don’t want to face it but it is Republicans that march in lockstep like programmed lemmings. Look where that got America. Their continued allegiance to Party over Country at the expense of our National Security, our economy and our reputation continues to undermine progress.

Take all the screen-grabs of Olbermann from the past eight months, and they’d all look identical. The seething rage on his face is palpable in each and every one, which is good if you hope for the continued unmasking of what Liberalism truly is. One-party rule, on its surface, isn’t a good thing. But it has turned out just terrific judging on the looks and behavior coming from the Liberal media elite. They’re all unhinged with rage!

Why is Olbermann so angry?
“Dems dropping like flies” is the truth – does KO not like the truth?

“The difference that is lost on fools like you is that the right relies on lies and mis-information in order to influence tools like you and you eat it up without question.”

Thats funny, because that sounds exactly like an…Olbermann Talking Point!

Get off the high horse, and realize everyone believes strongly in their point of view; the mis-information and lies you speak of are nothing more than focusing on the facts that support your stance. Both sides do it, no one is mightier than the other. By speaking this line, you are showing you’ve been programmed by the Fox News haters that all Fox News does is evil, and that conservatives cant think for themselves. It’s as false for conservatives as it is for liberals. How about Olbermann this week exaggerating and pushing Richard Wolffe to agreeing that there is the “possibility” there is a consipracy against Obama in the national security teams. Then he makes it “BREAKING NEWS”, and the next day he has Wolffe on again who backtracks on the whole conversation ever happening. You dont think that is misleading viewers?

MSNBC is trying to market themselves as the “Place for Politics”, Fox News as “Fair & Balanced”, and CNN — well for whatever strategy they are going for. Its all marketing and looking for a higher market share, and you are falling hook, line, and sinker for it.

Facts have a liberal bias. Deal with them or you’ll always be looked at as just another stupid teabagger who watches fox because you can’t handle the truth.
From Bob Cesca’s blog:

“Via Balloon Juice, the Washington Post is continuing to sell the thoroughly debunked idea that the Dodd and Dorgan retirements are bad news for Democrats. Maybe Dorgan, but Dodd is absolutely great news.

Last night, Rachel Maddow tallied up the Senate and House retirements and there are more retiring Republicans than Democrats — in each chamber. More Republicans leaving the Senate. More Republicans leaving the House.

But we shouldn’t be surprised. Everything is bad news for the Democrats. It’s the script.”

If you can count, you realize that once again what many of you idiots call the “Liberal Media” that’s in Obama’s pocket is more bullshit from the right. Swallow hard you morons!

@Roxsteady

And exactly to my point , your facts support your point of view – yes, more Republicans are retiring than Democrats. But the facts you ignore is a greater number of retiring Democrats are in seats that will be hotly contested while more (not all) Republican retirees are in safe conservative areas that are highly unlikely to switch parties. Thus, your narrative that the Democrat retirements will hurt their party more than the Republican ones.

Do your own studying on these things and don’t just believe the first thing you hear on your favorite cable news station or blog.

One would think the Dems, controlling both houses and the White House, and offering the American people everything they (the Dems) know we (the people) need there would be no-one retiring. Actually one would think with all this legislative “goodness” no Democrat would ever need to retire, right? I mean, gosh, times are great!

So much discussion on a meaningless topic from a network that pees on itself when Obama speaks. If Mediate didn’t follow KO, Maddow and Mathews, their viewership would be cut in half. It is not a surprise that MSNBC had their best rating over the holidays when these wingnuts weren’t on. KO is sooo bad even SNL mocks him on occasion. I think most of his audience is made up of people watching to see if his head will explode…..and morons who think holding a “health care” day at the WH without any opposing view is fair journalism. The far left is so cute when they are angry.

If I were to address the media angle of this post, I’d say…
It sounds like whomever wrote the CNN headline thought they still sold shirts.

As for the politics of the 2010 election, I could expand on some of the thoughts from the pseudo-intellectualism comments the other day, wrap them in a media blanket and provide illustrative links, but I’m not sure this is really the place.

How funny that Olbermann is attacking the only network with ratings worse than his. He is a joke. Perhaps he needs to analyze his Worst Person stats, and examine his own *neutrality*.

Who the heck cares what Keith Doberman and his twin sister, Rachel Maddog have to say. They are a pair of empty suits. He should listen to himself. His own words are prophetic…”what is this ‘idiot’ doing now”? Oh…and by the way Keith…your humor doesn’t even rate sophmoric.
