World's Worst - Will, Hannity, O'Reilly

[cdnerds]

Ohhh too bad.. he was suspended.. fitting.. for the asshat

[madisonelectronic]

Ah Keith you sneaky little putz. MSNBC found those illegal political donations. YOU'RE FIRED.

[tet43]

These left, right commentators make lots of money because of their black, white views.The fact is we are ALL Americans who I'm sure want the basics in life.Can you imagine the amazing country we would have if we could all agre on certain basic human rights, and compromise on the details? Isn't that what ADULTS do?

[sehguh1]

I don't like how Keith delivers it, but I still agree with him :P

[mylexicon2]

I dislike Keith Olbermann's politics but he really is about the only person in all of the news media who calls out conservative commentators for ranting on without bothering to substantiate their claims. Hannity is probably one of the worst about making things up.

I wonder how much different Keith would be if he were more familiar with economic theory and governmental organization. He strikes me as a liberal on cultural grounds.

[talentokie]

I hardly watch this clown. I wonder who does.

[jcd2511]

@talentokie I do

[CaptainQueue]

Keith ... NPR has an opening.

[Lobby75]

@CaptainQueue That is funny LMAO

[ejs2010]

I mean he is literally retarded.

[cincyblows]

I see Keith Olbermann still suffers from penis envy.

[madisonelectronic]

@cincyblows Is that why he is a dickhead?

[Primordialfan1]

I love seeing Fox News viewers complain about actual news organisations objectivity XD.

You watch FOX. You have NO IDEA what ''balance'' is.

[Teclis98]

You are trying to call Keith crazy and yet you can correctly spell the name of 2 major anti-psychotic drugs... and guess that they are perscribed together... hmmm interesting.

[AleXSoksen]

You guys that does not like Olbermann are most likely brain washed by Fox News (read Fake Noise) and thats right Billo

[robertsickels]

3440 Views ! More than he gets on TV ! Ha HA !

[rednxrule]

lol, this guy is calling people bad things???? he is going to be on food stamps soon, if he doesn't end up in a looney bin 1st. they need to decrease olbies thorazine and lower his aderall

[Winterfairy777]

this idiot likes listening to himself. what an idiot.

[Bonescorpion]

god, this idiot needs to get a life. Keith is so full of hatred. He doesnt have anything of substance so he resorts to personal attacks. Olbermann is worse an O Reilley

[okplayer420]

I can't tell if gigi1711 is being serious or not. That has got to be the worst grammar I've ever seen. No doubt it is either someone being overly sarcastic, or it is the TYPICAL Fox viewer-and uneducated redneck troglodyte in desperate need of euthanasia.

[beatsbytheory]

Fuckin idiots always making reference to fox ratings like that determines the quality and substance of the show..Ugh so damn annoying. Fox news is broadcasted to over 400 million people around the world let alone it's available on basic cable whereas MSNBC is not so duuh of course their ratings are higher. I'm not a big fan of Keith being he is just an Orielly for the left, but I absolutely love the fact someone is the answer to Bill that exposes his lies,spin and far right propaganda. Go Keith!

[streetswell]

O'Reilly and Hannity (and, hell, the whole Fox looney bin) had insignificant careers before Roger Ailes paid them to yell out closely scripted talking points. And, while Fox is the most watched CABLE news channel in the country -- albeit rapidly falling-- the regular networks regularly kick its ass.

[Elevan613]

Fixed news is a complete joke

[kuwageta]

@ Elevan613, yeah I know this guy and MSNBC are a joke because they are indeed the "fixed news"

[FrostbittenWolf]

Fixed news? Any way to back up that claim? Go on. I'll try not to laugh.

[mrvulcan2]

Keith, You should call your show "Countdown to no ratings"

Keith Overbite wets the bed.

[trb1990]

HA HA that's awesome mrvulcan2

[breastinspector2]

Holy shit. Worst people in the world to them are conservatives who have been caught without all their facts straight? And the Bill O'Reilly one... I mean he says a guy refused to come on his show, and that guy says he was never asked. Honestly, the likelihood of that guy lying could be anywhere from a million times less to a million times more likely than that of Bill O'Reilly, but here this man is telling you that he is the worst person in the WORLD for it? Out of Bin Laden, Kim Jong il, etc?!?

[anthonyrussell84]

errr...the point of the bit is it's a joke to expose some of the lies coming out of a primarily right wing American news media that presents itself as fair and balanced with the other odd idiot thrown in. Nobody honestly believes that Olbermann holds Bill O'Reilly above Bin Ladin or even Bush in the Worst Person stakes

[breastinspector2]

I know that as well, but what I'm trying to say is that "worst person in the world" is as strong a title as they could make, I mean seriously, they could be a bit less childish in carrying out their hits.

[d2eux]

Liberals ARE trying to re-instate the fairness doctrine. Olbermann, just screw off, you dont inform the American people and are a left wing biased moron. You are no more objective than limbaugh, hannnity, or o'reilly.

[cwood4ever]

Hey Keith Olberman no one watches you. You don't even compare in views to Orielly.

[shake118118]

not true, actually

[PsychoSpammer]

"Hey Keith Olberman no one watches you."

~cwood4ever~

How did you like it ?

[CypressVillain128]

O'reilly and Olberman both suck dick---fox and MSNBS are jokes---dont watch either if you actually want to tlearn things

[Deioth]

Wow, Hannity is a failure of humanity. What about John Edwards? He was a liberal, right? A democrat, right? We find out he had an affair and possibly child out of wedlock, and what's he doing now? The guy should consider himself lucky if he has a political career anymore.

[rfifeblogger]

Olberman is so stupid.

[DarkestOne7]

no, you are

[rfifeblogger]

He twists stories and spouts out crap about conservatives. He even accused Hannity of interviewing people who hate America. He has been driving away a lot of MSNBC viewers because of his liberal bias. In his point of view, as long as you are a conservative, you are a bigot.

[DarkestOne7]

Not really, he he just feeding Fox News scum with their own medicine.

Btw Sean Hannity is a human garbage, I don't need Olbermann to tell me that

[rfifeblogger]

He also said that the 2nd amendment was limited to people in the military, making it clear that it wasn't for us. The founding fathers said clearly that the CITIZENS could own guns.

[Spinoda7]

MSNBC is heavily liberal and theres no point in watching it if you want fair coverage. Fox leans republican and is culturaly right. Theres nothing wrong with these people Olbermann showed. They were just expressing there opinions and Bill only accused the guy of attacking him on something he made up. I haven't found proof of fox asking him to come on so that isn't fair coverage by fox there so maybe Bill was a little agressive.

[rjmacgyver]

Shmuck Schumer for one! You do your homework

Mr. Olbermann

[epicenter2012]

Also, in case Mr. Will didn't make a clear enough case about the Fairness (Censorship) Doctrine: "It's time to reinstate the Fairness Doctrine" -Dick Durbin, June 2007..."Yes" -Nancy Pelosi, when asked if she was in support of reinstating the Fairness Doctrine, June 24, 2008...Need I go on? (I could). As for Hannity and O'Reilly...they are the greatest broadcasters of this generation. Olbermann certainly can't boast the dual titles of most loved AND most hated talk show host like Bill can.

[Deioth]

THis is coming from a centrist and moderate...

Bill O' and Hannity are some of the most arrogant, biased, and close minded journalists on television. Most of Fox News is rather similar, acting as if their views and their being conservative is somehow correct. At least Olbermann uses arrogance and bias as part of an act, as opposed to being a part of his personality and worn with selfish pride.

[SirBroadsword]

Deioth:

That's the key difference between Olbermann/Maddow and O'reilly/Hannity... The former use facts and reason to support the left, whereas the latter use their loud voices and big egos to support the right...

[shake118118]

well said!

[DisturbedMind0955]

Another difference is that Keith never has anyone with an opposing viewpoint on his show whereas Oreilly and Hannity always have people with different opinion on theirs.

[Spartacus217]

@DisturbedMind0955 Nigga please.

[DisturbedMind0955]

what?

[fretbuzz59]

O'Reilly has on people that disagree, then gets mad when they do so. Or just tells them they're wrong. Hannity just flat-out lies, nightly. So, he's not worth discussing.

Olbermann presents the stories on his show, then brings in people who are scholars & experts to provide context & analysis. The one thing you can't say is that he lies. Because if he did, the righties would no doubt point it out. Not only do they not do so, they don't even defend against the lies of theirs that he exposes.

[DisturbedMind0955]

@fretbuzz59 He only brings on people who agree with his viewpoint. He doesn't tell both sides of the story, unlike real journalists.

[fretbuzz59]

He does a news analysis show. He reports a story and gives his perspective. As for telling "both sides"...facts are facts...there aren't 2 sides to the facts.

Since you mentioned O'Reilly & Hannity, I hope you're not suggesting they're real journalists. Hannity's nothing more than a liar (which has been proven over and over). O'Reilly tells his share whoppers, though he's a little more nuanced. His main MO is to create controversy, and strawmen to attack, so he can pretend to be a journalist.

[DisturbedMind0955]

@fretbuzz59 All the other commentators on MSNBC have people on with opposing viewpoints. All Olbermann does is call anyone who doesn't agree with Obama racists, but never allows any of them to come on his show and defend themselves. Every commentator on fox has people on with whom they disagree. It is possible to disagree without being disagreeable. Olbermann obviously can't have any of his opinions challenged in any way by anyone.

[fretbuzz59]

No he doesn't call anyone who disagrees w/Obama a racist; he often disagrees w/Obama, himself.

I guess the pretense of balance is what matters to you. Who cares if Hannity has an opposing view on? He's a lying hypocrite, who distorts history & often contradicts things he's said in the past.

Most of the shows w/ opposing views are worthless, since all we get are talking points. Keith at least presents honest analysis from his perspective, backed up by logic & ACCURATE historical context.

[DisturbedMind0955]

@fretbu I don't see how you can stomach him with all the shitty imitatations he does of people in his worst person in the world segment. I hope someone knocks the shit out of him one of these days then well see how much of a pompous ass he acts like.

[fretbuzz59]

Since you haven't disputed my points about Olbermann & the show's format, nor his competition. And since you're seem offended by him & his impressions, but not by the actual worst persons, I have to conclude you really do have a disturbed mind.

The self-anointed culture warrior O'Reilly calls people pinheads every night. That offend you? Or how about Hannity's self-righteousness and LYING? How 'bout that?

I think people who don't like KO simply can't handle the truth--to quote JN.

[VeryEvilPettingZoo]

Re: Hannity & O'Reilly are this generation's greatest broadcasters

When the feigned moral outrage, of those who trade in sewage, is mistaken by millions as being genuine moral concern... when the angry arrogant certitude, of those who are clearly deficient in both knowledge and reason, is mistaken by millions as indicative of penetrating insight and wisdom... when Hannity and O'Reilly are considered to be the greatest broadcasters of their generation... then surely the Republic's end is nigh

[epicenter2012]

I'm sorry you're so threatened by real journalism and real questioning, Mr. Olbermann. I apologize on behalf of all conservatives for being such a pain in your neck for daring to disagree with you. And I'm also sorry that the only way you can "Get Back" at O'Reilly for beating you in the ratings every single night is to name him your "World's Worst Person" (which, coming from you, is a very high compliment, considering any sane person would think the exact opposite of you).

[integral]

Oh, don't worry, you'll get your facts straight someday. Actually since you're a Fox watching O'Reilly fan, you probably won't. Oh well.

[u0455294]

I never said I liked Sarah Palin, or anything about Sarah Palin. I just pointed out that the Patriot Act is not completely out of line with American history. Also I don't think conservatism is dead, although many people in the Republican party only follow it when it suits their needs. There are many people in the party who still believe in small government, fiscal discipline, and an assertive foreign policy. Mike Huckabee and Fred Thomson are two such men.

[u0455294]

How about some psychotic retard who wastes time attacking commentators who don't get the opportunity to defend themselves. I don't even understand how someone could consider this news.

[upabittoolate]

be cause it IS?! in all fairness, hannity said it & he omitted some facts. michael medved tore keith a new 1. you should see it. either way, journalism is journalism

[Bensbmw]

this isn't news its name calling

[upabittoolate]

i wouldnt say all that. if it's true it's true. olbermann is just pointing out the facts. is it fair & balanced? probably not. but not even the devil is devoid of truth

[u0455294]

How is this relevant to anything going on in the world? This is propoganda pure and simple. It is designed to turn people against conservatives. None of these people are even politicians.

[upabittoolate]

conservatives need to be exposed for their folly. the same goes for liberals. the conservatives are greatly responsible for the mess we're in right now. but here's my deal: why not just change the channel if you're so disturbed?

[u0455294]

The whole notion of conservatism is that people can run their lives best when the government isn't trying to run it for them. How can that be responsible for a mess, unless you're a person who is unable to run their own life? And yes I can change the channel, but why not point out what is wrong with the show at the same time?

[upabittoolate]

that sounds good....until i mention the patriot act. the last real conservative was goldwater. hell, the GOP didn't nominate dr paul. also, the neocons started a $1T war. if you think that conservatism is still alive today, you're wrong

[u0455294]

Contrary to popular belief almost all presidents have suspended civil liberties during war time. Abraham Lincoln had people arrested off of the street. FDR created internment camps. Ever heard of the Alien and Sedition Acts? George Bush wasn't the first and he won't be the last.

[upabittoolate]

that's all quite true. but that doesn't take away from my comment. these conservatives about which you speak are being big brother when it serves them. there's only wing nuts & neocons. the goldwater republicans are GONE. palin is what's remains. c'mon. SARAH PALIN? be serious mate

[emichik86]

I guarantee he will make it to the top of that list.

[InvestigatorDave]

So, on the same day that IL Gov. Blagojevich gets taken into Federal Custody, NONE of the three people making the worst person's list are IL Gov. Blagojevich?! How is that even possible?  Oh yeah, bias.

[upabittoolate]

blagoojevich was the worst person the day before this episode. get some facts idiot

[InvestigatorDave]

According to the date of this video clip, IL Gov Blago was taken into custody this very same day. Are you saying that the Gov was the worst person in the world the day before he was arrested? If so, what was it that Olbermann used as the criteria for naming Blago the worst person?

[InvestigatorDave]

Additionally, on the first broadcast day (Monday) after a "reporter" threw shoes at POTUS (Sunday) the shoe-thrower did not make Monday's worst person list. How can this happen? Oh yeah, bias.

[upabittoolate]

i never said it WASN'T bias. i said that there's a difference between a vid post date & a broadcast date. he was arrested at 6AM on 12/9. he made bail 2hrs later.

[InvestigatorDave]

This clip was posted on 12/10/08, but the event happened on 12/09/08.

The arrest, as you noted, was on 12/09/08 at 0600 hrs. This clip aired in the evening of 12/09/08 sometime around 1800 hrs. In the roughly 12 hours between the event and the airing of the worst persons segment, the arrest of Blago (one of only 50 governors in the US) did not qualify Blago as a worst person? I conclude that bias is the reason Gov Blago (IL-D) did not make the list. Your thoughts as to why?

[upabittoolate]

i also never said it WASN'T biased. of course olbermann is. but determining his worst people for him is presumptuous. especially considering that he, has since, made commentary about the governor, your allegation is wrong

[InvestigatorDave]

My allegation that he did not include Gov Blago in the worst persons segment on the day that Gov Blago was arrested is wrong? Despite the evidence to the contrary, how could you have arrived at that conclusion?

Of course KO addressed the Blago news at some point, (it would be impossible NOT to), but how do the three guys who made the list exceed the actions of Blago vis-a-vis worst person status? They don't. But they made the list anyway.

BTW, I see you are ignoring shoe throwing incident.

[upabittoolate]

because the man got arrested doesn't make him the worst person in the world. i'm not gonna deny the evidence against him. i'm not gonna deny the lack of journalistic integrity on keith's part. on the same token, i'm not gonna tell keith how to run his show either. o'reilly & hannity are extremely dishonest & stupid. hell, they're candidates for worst person almost every night

[InvestigatorDave]

By not denying (and therefore accepting) the evidence against Blago, you have to believe that he is so corrupt that he would qualify for worst person status for that day. So if he is nominated for worst person, how did the other 3 in the clip beat him? Were their actions more aggregious? Certainly not based upon the explanation provided by KO.

You don't have to "tell Keith how to run his show" to make a value judgment about how KO runs his show. He lets his bias drive everything.

[upabittoolate]

of course he's corrupt. all politicians have a degree of corruption. nevertheless, what you & i think (&know) don't write the show. olbermann does. nevertheless, it'd be pretty arrogant for me to complain about his show in the age of information technology. olbermann himself has said that his show is designed to be entertaining 1st & informative 2nd. either way, his bias does not reduce the veracity of his commentary about hannity, will & o'reilly; now does it?

[InvestigatorDave]

It is dishonest.

[upabittoolate]

sure it is.

[InvestigatorDave]

Just to recap, you responded to my initial comment: "blagoojevich was the worst person the day before this episode. get some facts idiot"

Now that we have sorted out the facts and dates, would you be gracious enough to admit your mistake and rescind the insult?

Let's see . . .

[upabittoolate]

no. i'm worse than olbermann.

[InvestigatorDave]

And you are dishonest -- at least intellectually dishonest.

[upabittoolate]

i never feigned intellectual honesty

[emichik86]

The Manatee. He really is a right wing lunatic fringe.
