Olbermann Pulled From Republican Convention Coverage
« on: September 01, 2008, 12:36:05 PM »
As Hurricane Gustav wreaks havoc on New Orleans as well as the schedule of the Republican National Convention, right-thinking Americans awoke to some good news Monday: MSNBC's Keith Olbermann will not be covering the festivities in Minneapolis-St. Paul, at least for the time being.

Apparently, Olbermann has been sent to New York to cover the hurricane.

We at NewsBusters who are here in the Twin Cities are deeply saddened by this announcement, as we were very much looking forward to having a serious political discussion with the "Countdown" host.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Actually KO and a few others at PMSNBC have been having huge arguments over who is in charge over there. I'm guessing the real people in charge are teliing KO that we might have to put you on the air but we don't have to give the biggest event of the week to do it

Um, the NFL Network asked Bryant Gumbel to leave, so I don't think they'll be talking to Keith anytime soon. I think Olbie would make a good replacement for the foghorn at MSG during Rangers games.

That was his most significant contribution to sports, at least that's what I think. That and knowing where NASCAR driver Dick Trickle finished each week.
I would beg to differ with the notion that the current administration is *NOT* the most transparent in history. It certainly is...because you can see right through them.
