Olbermann/MSNBC talking about lies on WMD. Drip, drip

[karlschneider]

The story is growing some limbs...
;-)

1. Not to worry.

Dems are mostly all busy covering for Smirk. :-(

Carl Levin complained an hour ago that the CIA kept this information (forged doc) in the "bowels of the CIA for over a year"......

My my my my my my my

Did carl vote for the war? I don't remember.

2. I saw Rockefeller today and he asked the question.

I think it was Wolf who said that the WH says that the Niger story was mistakenly put into the SOTU. Rockefeller said one word, "How?"

Olberman also remarked on the release of this info when the "occupant of the WH has left the continent."

[Jacobin]

3. An outrage occurs and the "opposition party" is meekly questioning

and ever so oblique.

Can't stand it.

Make me want to turn.......GREEN.

4. It ain't that bad...

5. Jay does pretty well with one word

The SOTU is perhaps the most vetted speech given.

Drip, drip.

6. I wasn't complaining

I thought he did a pretty good job overall.

7. Sometimes Keith pisses me off

but I'd give him a big wet one for that!

8. kieth was great on sportscenter

and now, finaly he is getting back there in regulwar news casting. He has a great sense of humor.

9. Olbermann wrote to me that....

....if Dems would just watch his show once a week, he could write his own ticket on content. He says news executives must please their audience, and not enough Dems watch MSNBC.

[Terwilliger]

10. MSNBC should be boycotted

shut 'em down

[Mechatanketra]

12. The fool.

IIRC, Donahue had the highest rated show on MSNBC at the time he got cancelled. Viewership didn't save his show, or give him a buy on content.

"Please their audience" my eye. People need to remember that on 'free' TV, the network's audience is not their customers -- they're the product. Networks sell their audience to their real customers, the advertisers -- and what pleases advertisers isn't necessarily just a bigger audience.

11. Actually McCauliffe is kicking some serious ASS on this

I'm no big fan of the leadership, but when they do right you gotta give 'em credit.

"Either President Bush knowingly used false information in his State of the Union address or senior administration officials allowed the use of that information. This was not a mistake. It was no oversight and it was no error."

That's one of the strongest statements I've seen on it outside of, you know, what Malloy would say or something.

13. Levin voted no... n/t
