Olby lied during countdown last night claiming Gibson was fired from Fox News. I guess he forgot about gibby's Fox radio show. I did a write-up on my blog about it.

If and only if you add up everything that CNN owns/does (TV, Internet and whatever else they have), they are number 1. That is what CNN is doing.

From the never ending list of the uneducated at the Hideous House of Hens.
 
It just shows to go... the Right Wing is fueled by hate.
 
They'll find something wrong with anything.

Outstanding! J$ is discussed in a Newsbusters article about Olbermann. The article includes the guest chart Johnny prepared which shows the lack of opposing views on Cankles show.
 
Congrats J$.

Olby is a hypocrite. He slams ABC of editing a video when he does the same thing. but what else is new: he lies/spins/distorts and above all biased. and he dares lectures others in the media-what a joke!!

Hell has finally frozen over.
 
O'Reilly And Walters Trade Good-Natured Jibes Over Fascinating People
Reported by Ellen - Thu 6:26 PM
So not EVERYTHING on Fox is biased and hateful. I laughed out loud several times during Bill O'Reilly's interview with Barbara Walters last night (12/9/09) over her Fascinating People of 2009 special. The two television troopers/competitors traded good-natured barbs and taunts throughout about Adam Lambert, Lady Gaga and Glenn Beck - "in spite of your jealousy, one of our biggest voices on television," Walters told O'Reilly, who chuckled heartily, rather than denying it. Walters gave back as good as she got and O'Reilly, who had some funny comments of his own, took it like a pro. I wound up catching it again on rerun and laughed the second time, too. Good going, Babs!
 
Either hell has frozen over or she was simply drunk that night.

That is hilarious! Olby makes David Wright from ABC someone the Worst Person in the World because he used an edited clip, and Olby uses an edited clip to prove it. The irony. Olby is such a fool.  
 
Frankly, I'm getting sick of this Worse Person in the World concept because Olby never gets it right. He treats the term far too casually. Yesterday in the Los Angeles area, some bastard raped and killed a woman who was pregnant with twins.  
 
But apparently for Olby, an edited clip is far worse than that.

I've noticed the past few weeks that BOR has been in a more joking and jovial mood. It looks like he's having lots of fun doing his program these days.

Cankles is more than a hypocrite in this case, he's a liar because when he introduced the vid, he said it was unedited.

Johnny, are you aware with the Megyn story that you've linked to some sort of porn site?

CC, you officially convinced me to go there! Too bad none of the porn girls are as hot as Megyn.

Really? I was tipped by a previously reliable source so I didn't question it. I guess I should do something about it, huh?

According to the BillOReilly.com newsletter, Buddy Winston is coming back to "The Factor." I don't know what day, but I'd say it's either tomorrow or one day next week. If his appearance will be anything like the one earlier this year, brace for filibustering.
