My rant on Keith Olbermann

I have nothing against the man personally or even his views but I do have issue with the way he presents his program.

Partially conservative more Libertarian? All a Libertarian is is a hardcore Conservative. It's pretty hilarious how you are making it sound like Bill O'Reilly doesn't make people out to evil if they have a different point of view. He yells people down, cuts off their microphones and launches boycotts against people who share a different point of view.

Big tip: Stop watching Fox News and turn off the radio... you're slowly morphing into another brainless right-wing drone.

actually no tc. Libertarian is economically conservative and socially liberal. Yes I will agree that Reilly does make out people to be evil if he disagrees but the point is that O'Reilly does not deny the fact that his show is opinion orientated but Olbermann tries to create the illusion that his newscasts are unbias when they are obviously heavily liberal.

NO Libertianism isn't "economically conservative and socially liberal" don't overgeneralize libertarians like that. Libertians ALWAYS support liberty, plan and simple. check out Anarcho capitalism to REALLY UNDERSTAND LIBERTARIANISM.

Wow, tcMEperor, u know NOTHING of libertarianism. First lets just say what a hardcore libertarian is. All libertarians support all civil liberties and only negative liberties(right to bear arms, use drugs, freedom of speech) but not "positive liberty"(right to job". All libertians want a free market. All hardcore libertarians oppose war excluding self defense(no preemptive war). A real hardcore libertarian could be described as Anarcho capitalist, volunnteerist(only voluntary contrats), ect.

It's unfair to compare fox news to the KKK... though recently they had people trying to stereotype Obama's family as typical.. angry black people. Having negative opinions on gays and lesbian. And push for christian reform. The comparison is there..

Now if you want to separate conservatives and republicans.. very well. But that just means Olbermann attacks Republicans like Glen Beck.. conservative values not included.

[mthwiz99]

i do agree with you that we should be critical of all media and presidents however calling fox as bad as the kkk is a unfair comparison. By the way in the accounts you are referring to, he was criticizing Democrats not the liberals which the same thing Glenn Beck does to Republicans even though he is Conservative. Going back to my original point, the show is suppose to be an unbiased account, he has said that, however after watching it, it is clear that it is not.

[RedPandaBoy]

.... Oh, i forgot to mention his talk about liberals.. I guess you don't know his special comment to Hillary Clinton and Obama.. when they did something 'wrong'.

Or his talk on how the democratic party failed the american people when they won the house..

Having a bias is to have a pre judgement that's not based on the facts. He's not arguing to change our opinions.. he's stating his news.. And Olbermann is not a journalist.. he's a news anchor, he delivers what others find.

[RedPandaBoy]

did i not state earlier that he even put himself as part of the world's worst persons for a mis-statement he made?

But him being critical of Bush and Fox news.. The only counter i will give you is.. is it true or not? Is it true that our president's administration been doing 'bad' things and deserves critism.. And is it true that fox news misinforms people? If they're true.. then he's justified in being critical of them.

[mthwiz99]

Ok you want your example here you go. First most of the people he calls the worlds worst are mostly conservatives. Very rarely will he put a liberal on it and if he does it is mostly as a joke. He is very critical of the Bush administration even going as far as calling Bush a fascist. He is also very critical of Fox News saying once that they are as bad as the KKK. All I'm saying is if it talks like a liberal and looks like a liberal then it must be....
