Is anybody else really, really tired of Keith Olbermann?

RaccoonHarry

A leopard doesn't change its spots - he's back in hot water again. Self-inflicted, of course. Oh, but he's apologizing. What a tired act...

Unless you are an Olbermann lover, there's no reason to find him relevant anymore. His platform for his show is great if you like him. But it's not must see TV. And unlike something like Real Sports that is able to get a viewer invested in the stories, Olbermann going off on topics daily just doesn't really seem that compelling.

But then again, whether it's sports or politics, if you gain your viewpoints by listening directly to the viewpoints of others and not thinking critically on your own, then wow, just wow. But since so many do that and don't think for themselves, you have a strong market for those kinds of shows.

The guy is a blowhard.

Keith is gonna Keith.

So angry...I don't get it.

Honestly? If Olberman, O'Riely, Madow, and Hannity all drowning in a fire, I really wouldn't mind that much.

Think that could be arranged? Toss in Sharpton and I'm in for sure...

Keep it fair and balanced, toss in Al and Skeletor.

He's a libtard douchebag who think's he's smarter than everyone else, when really he's just a snarky asshole who can't help but put his foot in his mouth

I get making fun of Olbermann for his political blowhardiness....But anytime someone wants to rip on the cult that is Penn state it's got my support 100%

With O'Reilly, Hannity, Olberman, and all these other political blowhards it's not about politics for them, it's ego. They've started to believe their own bullshit and think that their opinion is worth a damn because stupid people who can't think for themselves listen to them (d2d). Its unfortunate that these clowns have an audience but its part of the current culture we live in.


For the record, though, I used to like Olberman back in the 90s when he and Dan Patrick did sportscenter together

Fucking this. Wiff a bullet.

Nobody just tells the news, it's all extreme opinions. I am no fan of the extremes, would be nice to slice off the edges that make up both Fox News and MSNBC.

No, he wasn't

Olbermann's show is good and he was good on ESPN Radio many years ago with Tony Bruno. Everything between has been meh.

He's an asshole who can't control himself. ESPN actually had good reason to take action for once.
