Keith Olberman vs. The New York Post
If you’re not watching MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann (or at least seeing the particularly good portions on YouTube), you might very well be missing some of the most thoughtful dissent and intelligent political bitch-slapping in recent memory. Case is point, Olbermann is lampooned in the NY Post this week after receiving a suspicious letter filled with white powder. The Post calls him “acerbic”, “terrified”, “caustic” and “panicked”, painting him as having overreacted and wondering outloud if he received a lollipop after his hospital visit. The calm, yet assertive Olbermann retorts on his show here and wins and even larger place in my heart. Worth watching regardless of your political leanings, as I think we can all agree that the Post is a worthless rag.
