I don't have "estrogen for KO" what the hell happened on his program?
Did he bring up the Gannon story? What did he say about it. Was it good...better than what I read Blitzer did with Howie, "Two Hat" Kurtz doing his "media spin" that Gannon was being "trashed by "internet bloggers?"

What did Keith say. Did he cover it last, like Blitzer...looking for ratings til the last minute?

Help me, here. I want to like Olberman...but he doesn't get me turned on in a frenzy...

:shrug: What the hell did he report????

2. He was great
Edited on Wed Feb-09-05 09:54 PM by lwfern
He had clips of one softball question after another asked by Gannon.
He covered the militarypimping websites.
He very bluntly said there was a problem with a fake reporter with a fake name getting access to the whitehouse.
He brought up the Plame connection.
He covered the story with humor and hit the angles that needed to be hit.

5. No, thanks Zidzi...I don't do the night TV and I wasn't near a TV
so I needed to hear the scoop. Sounds like Blitzer was the worst from what I read.

11. I love Keith.. he's awesome :)
I love how Keith doesn't back down from anyone when reporting a story - thank goodness SOMEONE in the media isn't completely whipped by Bush and crew.

I'll definitely have to catch it at midnight - it sounds like he really took it to Gannon!

12. His dedication as a newsman is appreciated...
... I just wish they'd take that disgusting low rider picture off Countdown's front page.

13. it was wonderful coverage
Not only did he accuse "Gannon" of throwing softballs, he showed clips which made it painfully obvious that McClellan and blivet** have been using Gannon as a lifeline. And KO managed to cover the male prostitution angle without either shying away from it or wallowing in it for the sake of smuttiness -- kudos to him.
