Olbermann: rein in corporate greed & media monopolies

[OrcsRDorks]

omg next theyre gonna regulate our free speech!!!

[hooliganism49]

Olbermann...you realize u work for a corporation and if the owners were liable in a suit like a small business, then that would mean NBC would be sued often to the point where u would be out of a job. IDIOT!! Corps actually benefits all involved including ur dumbass. Also, I hope he realizes that NBC at one point tried to control network tv before fox came along and the left has always tried to shutdown talk radio to silence the right. Why do u think theres more music than talk radio nowadays?

[NUTCASE71733]

@hooliganism49

I'm pretty sure he realizes that, and I'm sure he isn't fond of how he does his schtick either. Likely why he quit, as he has his own show not just doing this show because he was paid to do it.

[getgetoutout]

Seems obvious to me, but hey what do I know. I am just one voice with one opinion. As are we all. But if you have a show discussing current events, be it O'Reilly or Olberman, attempting to educate an audience of differing opinion on any particular subject, shouldn't you at least have a discussion with guest of differing expert opinion so your audience has ALL of the information it needs to form it's own. Not going to be preached to by a single opinion "I hate Americans that disagree" show.

[brianlugen]

Enough of what, Freedom of speech. God damn liberals anyone who disagrees with them must be silence.

[NUTCASE71733]

@brianlugen

There's a difference between free speech and slander. Fox Noise is guilty of slander; always has, always will. At least until Murdoch and his cronies are given the boot.

[brianlugen]

@NUTCASE71733 Ignorance, Greed, and failing to understand each other is the culprit in this maddness of war that we are creating to divide us.

[brianlugen]

Damn Keith you are a true MORON!

[enomarekim]

Is he seriously denouncing freedom of speech? Does he understand that whatever political party controls the FCC would be able to silence its dissidents. Is this man Hitler? I am absolutely awestruck at what I just heard. What a sick, evil mother fucker. He is willing to follow the party line even when it denounces the right to free speech. Are you fucking kidding me, no matter how fucked up fox news is, they still have a fundamental right to say what they want to say.

[NUTCASE71733]

@enomarekim

Freedom of speech and press is one thing, but fox newhas insited violence, hatred, and bigotry for decades. They deserve to have the plug pulled on them, or at least be replaced by professionals.

[R0773N]

Liberals are only upset that it's not their monopoly anymore. Murdoch? What about Viacom?

Liberals are idiots, period.

[joecassara]

Agreed. Liberals are just as idiotic as conservatives.

[Gerkinstock]

@R0773N... Agreed.

[tga2848]

Can you say sedition? Murdoch needs to answer for the spewtum his network vomits forth onto the American people.

[karlkarlkarl1234]

WORD.

Send Rupert Murdoch to the gallows. I'm disgusted at being born in the same country as him (Australia), we absolutely despise him here, and I sincerely apologise to the good American people for having to put up with this monster and his media monopoly.

[NamIsIll]

Keith Olberman is so pompous

God i hate thids failed espn sports anchor

Keith just die now

Your opinions are so liberal even Osama Bin Laden is your fan

[bsnxenogear]

Fox IS 1 sided. The wrong side most of the time...

[larry1369]

You're so right main stream media in this country has so much to do with manipulation of opinion and so little to do with providing unbiased factual coverage. That is because news is big business and mind control is a very lethal tool. Americans need to stop fighting over the things that divide us and start focusing on our common values or this country is lost. Stop blaming democrat, republican, liberal, conservative and see who is behind these fascist agendas before the US is unrecognizable!!!!

[Cedtoron]

I'm tired of my tax dollars going to bail-out GE, parent company of NBC, to pay this guy's salary so he can complain about regulation of the cable industry. Enough!

[pkscolax]

It's a bigtime distraction. So long as telecomm is getting flak, nobody's looking at how evil GE is. >_>

[jetsamjetsam]

US mainstream media is worse than China's CCTV in terms of content.

People like Olbermann are just as bad as Oreilly, Olbermann criticizes Oreilly to cover his own ass.

and this coupled with a nation of lower IQ sheeples, you can see why the US propaganda system is so superior.

[oalemdemadrid]

cover his ass from what? Olberman is the exact opposite of Billo. I´m not saying you don´t have a point I just don´t know what it is. Seriously how are they the same? I agree about the IQ thing. But you disagree with both of them? Who DO you agree with?

[freedomman121]

Olbermann is a closet lez

[mike75243]

btw he wants this because liberal radio has noooo listners.

[mike75243]

you guys are all stupid sheeple get a miind of your own. I love how you dog on fox for being "one sidded" and you will watch dumb fuck msnbc. LMAO! BTW see how much you love Obama after cap and trade is passed!!! ps gOOBERMAN is a fucktard!

[underpuppie]

The way I see it the government already has a lot of control over what we watch. After all they are the ones who create the regulations that would grant or deny entities such as Murdock's conglomerates to monopolize and and distort the information that our citizens rely on to make democratic decisions. No we don't want the government to control what we see.... rather we ask it to simply regulate those who do control what we see. It is, as a reminder to those who've forgotten, our 1st right.

[jimmy27paul]

keith olberman tells the real truth.

[navy2238]

do you want the government to control what u watch? i sure... don t! thats why he crying about ratings nobody watching hes show cuz its bullshit !! and he knows it

remember dont fall for class warfare

[mgadth99]

moron

[07august]

right back at you, witch 99. You work for GWB's witch aunt Ann Cappelletti, who runs the witch paid posters.

[Rexanglorum]

Lef tand righ twing loyalist are loathsome. With Bush out and Obama in, people like Olbermann suddenly are in love with government having unlimited power. Tyranny is when anyone in government goes beyond the legitimate limits on his or her power. Olbermann also reveals the left wing mind set toward entities, that they do not like, and it is that you are getting a "free ride" by simply not being taxed and regulated into oblivion. Keith Olbermann is indeed today's worse person in the World!

[axlrose9951]

You know, not to be biased because I try to stay away from BS news because both stations Fox and MSNBC twist and turn every little thing but i've found that O'Reilly truely is the closest to telling it like it is. Hannity, Matthews and Olberman make me sick with thier biased lies.

[07august]

axl, you are a funny witch poster. You work for witch Ann Cappelletti, Barb Bush, sister, daughters of Aleister Crowley. You do know that John Cappelletti's demolition company planted the explosives in the WTC blgs. Neocons are neopagan followers of Leo Strauss & some are master witches, do you not?

You do know that you are being paid with money stolen from the Pentagon in 2001, ie you are part of the conspiracy of the huge fake plane illusion of 911. btw, Hannity is a neopagan.

[axlrose9951]

...Your a friggin nut case dude.

[07august]

yeah, right, axl, you are a witch poster posting for witch Ann Cappelletti, daughter of Aleister Crowley, as is Barbara Bush, conceived in 1924. Ann pays all of you witch posters & wannebe witches who are taking witch classes to post your neopagan, neocon BS.

John Cappelletti, son of witch Ann, who put the spell of John the conqueror root on John (hoodoo) to make him the family cash cow was bowlegged & tripped himself, Ann had sex w witch L Ron Hubbard to conceive Joey to sacrifice Joey.

[hunter1447]

Keith Olbermann is a prick.

Average FOX viewers: 1,426,000

Average MSNBC viewers: 502,000

[r2sleepio]

He's a prick in the side of those who promote right-wing, xenophobic, creationist bullsh*t.

A more telling statistic would be:

Average IQ of FOX viewers versus

Average IQ of MSNBC viewers

[Gerkinstock]

@r2sleepio... keep telling yourself that., kid You might actually start to believe it (and by the way, you forgot sexist, racist, homophobic, anti-education, et al).

MSNBC is the network of life's losers.

[r2sleepio]

@Gerkinstock ...you watch FOX I pressume. It shows for a couple of reasons besides your last sentence ;)

Thanks for demo'ing my point

[Gerkinstock]

@r2sleepio... No, I don't watch Fox News. I've watched it in the past, as I've watched your beloved MSNBC in the past. There are few things as ironic as people @ MSNBC accusing other networks of bias.

[CorporateGoat]

So it's offensive to voice my own opinion on radio or t.v. ??? Sound like a dictatorship to me.

[CorporateGoat]

Yeah that's great, lets just regulate media outlets. The media should be able to voice it's own opinion, what ever it maybe. Just because some individuals do not like what is being said, gives no reason to regulate the media. People have the opportunity to research for themselves, but don't. It is not the medias fault but our own peoples fault for being such sheep.

[TOAFN]

Support Electronic Frontier Foundation. ( EFF)  It's one of the few hopes of digital freedom.

[kyebean]

shut up

[buckfush12]

Seriously we need to protect this beast, the internet.

[gusbaker4u]

"nobody watches my show! it's not fair, enough!"

[CraftyZanTub]

I just thank God for the uncontrollable Internet!

[skidawg22]

Can we please get Keith to speak at the next NCMR?

[Gilliatt83]

regulation???

[t0kt0k]

"corporate greed" is build into the system.

it's true. if you want to change the system, you have to change the laws.

[F4R207]

well you can remove system.

reformate, reboot, year zero.
