More selective outrage from the left. Did this same group ever demand that Keith Olbermann be fired for his 'Bushed" comments. Liberals only believe in free speech when you agree with them.

Robert Gibbs and Senator Kyl (R) Refuse Poisoned Bait from Baier on Fox News Sunday
Reported by Alex - Mon 8:55 PM
 
Poor, poor Alex. If only he wasn't watching Fox News for me, he might want to check out some of the other networks Sunday morning programming.
 
Of course we know Ellen's poodle is only interested being petty when it comes to Fox.

And now from the Wicked Wench, Priscilla.
 
Whoops He Did It Again – More Titillation From Bill O’Reilly
Reported by Priscilla - Mon 6:52 PM
 
I honestly believe she? and her looney lady friends are either jealous or very angry witches.( did I spell that correctly?)
 
A tip for the ladies. If you are going to critique someone's program, you should stick to substance rather than your petty little biases.

Same goes for liberals and "choice". They only believe in it when it comes to abortion and not schools or health care.

The Wicked Wenches will post anything to smear Fox News.
 
Fox News Map Places Egypt Where Iraq Should Be
Reported by Ellen - July 28, 2009 - 5 comments  
 
Yes the word Egypt is in the wrong place but their reason for posting it is petty and childish.
 
I guess they are perfect little Hens.

"[Shuster] went crazy and is so upset about it, he's thinking about getting a rug."

I am not surprised considering his behavior over the years.
 
Shuster presents himself as a rather superficial, easily angered and irritable boob.
 
NBC NEWS.....what quality!

I was home yesterday morning and had the rare opportunity to watch NBC's TODAY show.....I was educated on the latest physical flaw people are now owrried about ....the cankle......I was very happy to be so educated!
 
It seems the photo of Olbermann on vacation shows he has the cankle affliction. Poor guy.

While Keith is on vacation, I've taken a vacation from OlbyWatch. And with MikeH returning and many OW users taking his bait (I checked OW after seeing the porch pic), I'm glad I'm taking that proverbial [Ding!] vacation.

Re: Shuster loses it over bald spot.
 
Johnny, Countdown was not the first time an MSNBC tv show focused on the back of David Shuster's head.
 
They did it, not once, but twice, a week or so ago on Shuster's show with Tamron Hall.  
 
Like most of the audience, I was surprised to see that he is bald as a bean on his crown (not that hair loss in men is unusual or even especially unattractive) because generally tv cameras DO NOT focus on bald spots (or the back of people's heads...).
 
I wonder if Shuster might be a bit unpopular with one or two people who direct the cameras on news shows.

Shuster is very young to have at amount of baldness back there. DNA is not on his side. It's only a matter of time, a short time, before he's wearing a wig.

RE: CNN Anouncements
 
OK, so now they are doing "Latino in America". I certainly hope CNN doesn't forget about our basset friends and not do a "Haters in America" special. The little guy might cry if he gets left out!

Or he shaves it all off... and MSNBC permanently gets rid of Michael Smirconish.
 
I think there's a rule about there only being one bald guy per network. (That's why I'm not counting on that on-air job happening anytime soon for me. DARN YOU DNA!)

Re: "O'Reilly/Alexa part deux": I hope Keith's "quarantine" remains in place until after the March '10 event.
