1. Consortium news on Olberman -worth READING!
http://www.consortiumnews.com/2006/100406a.html He is concerned, and reminds US that Donahue was cancelled inspite of GREAT ratings. It's a good article from another of my favorites- right up there with Keith:)

2. He speaks for all Americans...
Unfortunately, 40% of them don't even realize it.

Maybe they will, when it's too late.

10. It was so good my husband rolled it back and we watched it again
Edited on Fri Oct-06-06 12:40 AM by calimary
as soon as it was over ('cause we tape it every afternoon for rewatch later). DANG he's wonderful! He speaks for all of us at our house, that's for sure. He's saying what VERY, VERY BADLY needs to be said - in fact, what DESPERATELY needs to be said. His commentaries should be repeated EVERYWHERE. Could it be this is one of the reasons why his ratings are the best on MSNBC?

4. Good Night and Good Luck! Wow! This was worth staying up
Edited on Fri Oct-06-06 12:06 AM by higher class
late for. Even staying up all night for! Unbelievably good! We write for hours and years - and he says it with 888 thousand plus listeners and many more who will hear it because if is repeated. This is good for our country. The lies are addressed on a GE station? What is going on. He gets to tell the truth, but none of their employees will speak about it. Have you heard O'Donnell say anything, Matthews? Anyone!

I dont' care. This helped alleviate all my pain in my patriotic heart for a little while. Such a long way to go, yet.

6. BTW Edward R. Murrow was from Greensboro
and we had the WCW rally at a nice sculpture that features a portrait of him. It was awesome.

13. KO, you've gotta be the "Bravest...Person...in the WORLD..!"
:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
I just watched the clip from Crooks & Liars. All I can ask is, Who in the Corporate Media today has more guts than this man to SPEAK TRUTH TO (the person at the very top of global political) POWER?
:patriot:
Really, can we name one person more COURAGOUS, not to mention INSIGHTFUL and ARTICULATE??
:patriot::patriot:
Are you (finally) listening out there, America???
:patriot::patriot::patriot:
Our country needs you and more people like you, Mr. Olbermann, and for that reason alone your audience needs to be much bigger. But considering the state of Corporate Media today, I'm just grateful that you're able to speak this way on a prime time show like Countdown. May your viewership increase and may more of your colleagues follow your lead.
:patriot::applause::patriot:
Maybe the truth you speak is the light we need to see at the end of this horrible tunnel through which we've been descending. And you have even dared to be a HEADLIGHT instead of a TAIL LIGHT - WOW!:applause::patriot::applause:

Seriously, thank you, Keith.

:patriot: :applause: :yourock: :applause: :patriot:

17. Now that is courage
And he is a true :patriot:

Not the kind that skips war and goes around calling people who disagree with them terrorist-coddlers or whatever....

21. Each time I think he can't top his last Special Comment...
he goes out and does it. He is, to use a sports term, in the zone right now.
