RSSKeith Olbermann Shows the class act that he truly is. What are your Ratings like these days Keith?
Keith Olbermann has acted like a pompous buffoon for years. His show “Countdown,”
“Meltdown”or “Down for the Count” or whatever’s ratings usually never wind up on the radar screen and it is no wonder. I know of no one that actually admits watching it was it is almost unwatchable. It is amazing that it is actually on the air.
There may be some truth to the rumor that the US military in GITMO force the prisoners detained there to extract information from them. It is said to work quite well and prisoners would rather sing like canaries rather that be forced to watch one minute of ”Countdown With Keith Olbermann.”
Keith Olbermann’s latest meltdown and ill advised stunt was to write in an email a most unflattering comment about fellow MSNBC cable host, Rita Cosby of “Live & Direct” fame.
“Rita’s nice,” Olbermann wrote to a fan from his MSNBC E-mail account, “but dumber than a suitcase of rocks.”
An MSNBC spokesman didn’t dispute the authenticity of the months-old E-mail, which came to light this week after the recipient shared it with this column on condition of anonymity.
When reached for a comment Rita Cosby said, “Keith got it wrong. I’m not that 
nice.” Not true at all Rita, you are extremely nice. Having had the opportunity recently to meet and talk with Rita Cosby I learned that she is very nice. She took the time to discuss matters and really have a conversation. Not like many in the MSM business who are a bit standoffish and do not give you the time of day. She was extremely pleasant, cordial and to my surprise interested, really interested in what others had to say.
Rita you are a really nice person and taking the high road just shows to all that class rises to the top while those like Keith Olbermann eventually went up where his ratings already are … down the toilet.
A word of wisdom to Keith Olbermann in the future. Never good to get in a beauty contest with someone when their ratings are superior to your own. Looks like this should be an interesting dilemma for new boss at MSNBC, Dan Abrams.

I actually like Keith Obermans’ show, much more so than Rita Cosbys’ show.

You have got to be kidding? You maybe be the only person who actually watches it.
The show is literally unwatchable. In all due respect, the man is a fool. I am glad to see that he thinks he is so far superior than others when the man could not find a TV rating if it bit him.
If it was a choice of watching “The Countdown” or Beaches … I would sooner watch Beaches on continuous play for 24 hrs.

Keith has the highest rated show on MSNBC most days. Rita is getting killed in her rateings her new time slot.
The fact that MSNBC does not do well as a network will likely get even worse with Dan in management now.
People actually watch this keith olberman garbage? Flipping between channels I ran into this idiot on tv. Within five minutes he had not only referenced incorrect information multiple times, but stereotyped then bashed on one woman for questioning Hillary Clinton. Well I guess we know who keith bow’s down to. Now we know how he keeps a show. Such an extreme political agenda I hope there isn’t anyone that actually believes this moron.
Keith, two questions I have. When V.P. Cheney said “so” and “we don’t govern by opinion polls” Does that mean ” We THE PEOPLE” does not count any more. Aiso has no one ever sat around and talked about the damage we (United States) have caused damage and death in other countrys. You know, that we have not been angles. Oh thats right thats what Rev Wright was pointing out.
keith oberland is a true rag journalist he should be fired
