Olbermann: This Hole in the Ground


I can't think of any other journalist out there as eloquent as Keith Olbermann. I have Tivo'd his "Countdown" show for the past month. He exhibits a strong sense of reality, makes good arguments, is eloquent in speech, and has the kind of humor tghat speaks to an Xer like me. Seth McFarlane of Family Guy fame does voice-overs as Stewie Griffin to introduce his "Monumental Earth Shattering News" segment, a blatant mockery of the "Fox News Alert", in which Olberman just ends up announcing a trifling tidbit of ET news about who got bumped off "Dancing with the Stars".

Watch this video, Olbermann's commentary on the 5th anniversary of 9/11, to see firsthand why Keith Olbermann is by far the best anchor on TV.

Excellent commentary - but not journalism.

I will have to make an effort to watch his show sometime.
