In his first ever online edition of the “Worst Persons of the Day,” Keith Olbermann returned to a role in front of the camera for his FOK (Friends of Keith) News Channel, and demonstrated that he is clearly itching to do it again on a full-time basis. Although today’s targets were not hard to predict, at least with Olbermann, viewers often can get a few unexpected chuckles from his confident and over-the-top commentaries.

Olbermann awarded the bronze medal to Fox News “actress” Jennifer Griffin for her controversial report that journalists were being used as “human shields” in Libya. Also deserving of special mention was CNN’s Nic Robertson, who Olbermann faulted for disputing Griffin’s report. Robertson claimed he couldn’t believe journalists would make such outrageous statements, to which Olbermann responded, “oh Nic, they’re not journalists, they’re Fox.”

The silver medal went to Rev. Franklin Graham for “continuing his father Billy’s ministry of divisiveness, condescension, fear-mongering and cash in easy-to-carry packets” and for being “even dumber and more racist” than his father. And last but certainly not least, was Glenn Beck receiving the gold medal for his continued apocalyptic theories. Olbermann, attempting a Beck impersonation, read a quote from Beck that “the world is about to be plunged into complete and utter darkness, despair and famine.” Olbermann claimed such a statement is old news since that day already happened when Beck’s show premiered on Fox News. For better or worse, Olbermann promised his fans and critics that he will be back in “late Spring,” but whether Olbermann and his tripod will be back again before then remains to be seen.

Jennifer Griffin better watch her back. KO is a known female hater who has violent fantasies about beating and killing those he disagrees with (Malkin, Clinton.) The dude is distubed.

Desperation on the part of mediaite to report on FOK. Really…..you will do anything not to report on the SEIU story Beck is revealing. Funny that.

hooey is right
Harry Flashman

crclarkNY makes a good observation:

“One more low rated “news person” hitching themselves to Glenn Beck to boost their ratings. Pathetic.”

He’s right.

The news nobodies hand onto Beck and Palin like leeches, sucking sustenance from them like the parasites they are.

For an example see the above article, or just about anything from Chris Matthews.

Man that made my day! As an Odd Couple fan, I would love to see Beck and Olbermann reprise that sit-com. That would be prefect casting and there’d be endless material.

I heard Keith had a shouting match with himself after the show and stormed off the set.

If he told the truth, he would still be on the air Focker.

Well isn’t that precious, It is pretending to be on a news show.
Who wants to bet that he isn’t even wearing pants.

Keith Olbermann must still be peeing down his leg like he was known to do when on the air at LSDnbc. At least old Keithy seems to be having fun again making fun of competitors who beat the crap out of him in the ratings every night of the week. There has never, ever been an adult who works or has worked at PMSnbc and it looks like Comcast plans on keeping it as a series of kiddie shows and it also looks like Mark Cuban is following suit. So sad…!
KirbbDogg2000

I’m, glad he’s back. I want to hear what thinks about how MSNBC droped the ball with coving Japan and why he’s left MSNBC. If he beat’s MSNBC that will be the nail in Phil Grffren’s coffen. Go get em’s Keith

What she said. ;)
Who is Salacious Crumb

Olbermann opining sarcastically about people being “off the air?” Um, dude?

Maybe he and Beck can co-host an E-show when Glenn’s contract expires and Gore realizes Keith is not quite the guy to be in charge of a news division beyond an editorial division.

Mediaite is covering video bloggers now? COOL. When can we hope to get stories on Autotune the News and some podcasters? No Agenda does ten times the work in the morning than Olbermann does, why not cover them?

Olbermann looks like he doing a cable access news show or You Tube video clip No sound effects, video clips or an enhanced microphone. One can do wonders by putting a camera phone on a makeshift tripod,

Yada, yada, yada. -0verbite is angry because no one watches his idiocy.

I actually feel bad for Olbermann. Sitting in his room pretending to do a “news” cast. I wonder how Sanchez is holding up. Maybe they should get together and make video otherwise it must be lonely

The Gordon Bloyer Show has better production value than this tripe………..
Georgia999

Wow—Mediaite-Land —you seem so excited about your Guru returning ! Not just one article about Olby being on the Internet, BUT TWO. !!! You Matt and Tommy Christopher probably watched it 20 times, kissing the screen all the while.
By the way, how long was the segment? Anybody know?

That is hysterical ! Who would even keep track of the low, low ratings?

So Matt, how much is -0verbite paying you to keep his name out there?

Do these cellar-dweller taking heads ever actually report on the news? Has anyone of them ever had an original thought? Olbermann, Matthews, O’Donnell, Schultz, and Maddow’s cottage-industry jobs are built on attacking Foxnews. The novelty has run it’s course. They’ve become comepletely predictable and boring. The only time I come close to viewing their silliness is on Mediaite otherwise, I completely forget they exist.

This is kind of sad isnt it?

Olbermann reminds me of someone who gets fired, and instead telling his wife*, he gets up every morning to pretend go to work, only to end up sitting in his car for 8 hours.

* In Olbermann’s case, replace “wife” with “cats”.
http://sharethisurlaboutglennbeck.com/ GlennBeckReview

Olbermann put Mediaite’s Jon Bershad on his worst person’s list for his rationalizing of deceptive “news” coverage on Fox, specifically of O’Reilly’s coverage of the WI protests. You won’t see that covered here:
http://foknewschannel.com/worst-persons-for-march-2-2011/

I have also called out Bershad’s shallow and spineless coverage of Glenn Beck, America’s liar/hypocrite/charlatan/yellow propagandist-in-chief. Don’t want to get Glenn Beck angry at you, so don’t state the obvious: Beck is a hypocrite!

Brave reporters are calling out the liars on the Fox propaganda channel; not so much here.
