Keith Olbermann To Deliver “Special Comment” Aimed At Gibbs Tonight
Want to know what MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann thinks of Robert Gibbs‘ “professional left” comment? You’ll have to wait until Countdown tonight – but it will happen, and will come in “Special Comment” form.
Michael Moore will give his take as well. This is probably not what Pres. Obama wants right now, on the night of these midterm primaries.
Olbermann made the announcement this afternoon on Twitter:
Early ShowPlug from “The Professional Left.” @MMFlint (Michael Moore) reacts, plus a Special Comment, on Mr. Gibbs’ remarks, on Countdown
Olbermann didn’t answer directly when I asked for his take (on Twitter) a few hours ago, after Bill Burton specified Gibbs meant “cable TV commentators” when he referred to the “professional left” during today’s White House briefing. Now we’ll see what one of the most influential voices on the left has to say about the criticism.
Also, apparently Keith didn’t like my joke that his Special Comment aimed at Gibbs means “civil war.” So I’d imagine it won’t sound like this Special Comment.
> Update: Olbermann tweets a preview:
For those freaking out on the prospect of a Special Comment on “Professional Left” this relevant quote to NetRoots Nation last month:
“What I’m asking you is to keep making your voices heard. To keep holding me accountable” — President Obama, July 2010
