Give me ONE LIE Olbermann has told
Edited on Wed Mar-12-08 05:36 PM by lynyrd_skynyrd
Whether it was a statement against Bush, or O'Reilly, or Hannity, or Coulter, or the war, or Clinton.

News flash to Clinton loyalists: Keith Olbermann is a journalist who speaks the truth. And one of the very few left to have any voice in the mainstream media whatsoever.

You lose all credibility when you attack him unless you can show that he has intentionally lied about anything, ever.

Stop embarrassing yourselves.

1. How about the NAFTA story?
I saw him claim she had contacted the Canadian government. I then carefully watched the Canadian news that night and the next. Olbermanm was wrong on this one.

3. You link to mydd.com as what?
Official? All Hillary all the time. Both stories are probably true. It doesn't help either one of them.

2. Don't even bother -- there are only about 15 of them barking about it
And they don't want to face facts.

Olbermann has been all over Obama on numerous occasions. They only see it when he targets Hillary.

7. Olbermann speaks HALF the truth. His half.
I noticed this the other night when the two Nobel Peace Prize winners were arguing about whether Hillary really helped the cause in Northern Ireland. One said she was a big help, the other said "not so much". Olbermann presented the "not so much" argument as undisputed fact, and the guest at the time just piled on with him.

That isn't journalism.

8. You're the one embarrassing yourself. He hasn't lied. He's just completely biased towards his choice
I expect more. If he is going to endorse, he should at least say so and not act like he is covering it impartially.

11. He's not really a journalist....
...he's a biased hack.

A journalist is unbiased....KO definitely is not.

A journalist? No.

Just info-tainment for the gullible masses.
