    Thanks to Mr Olberman peaking my curiousity, I am now an O’Reily fan. O’Reily comes across much more articulate, sane and informed. Thanks Keith.

  2. LarryL

    Keith is the street person who rants to himself out loud to passersby on the sidewlalk. The diffrence is that Keith has a mega operation (GE & MSNBC) to actually broadcast his street rants to the world.

  3. Willie

    O’reily is bunk

  4. Egg-Bert

    Overbite gets his pathetic butt kicked again

  5. What’s interesting is that, while O’Reily consistently smashes the competition in total viewers, it’s pretty close for the coveted audience.

  6. FrankR

    MSNBC is irresponsible for putting Olberman on the air. They won’t be around 5 years from now if they continue with their current on-air “talent”.

  7. Andrew Vranich

    I think Olberman has a man-crush on O’reilly.

    Get Olberman off the air… He is so jelious of Bill O’riley that he cries about him on every show he does. I only acccidently land on his show now and then and sure enough, there he is acting like a fool and crying about Bill again..

  9. Dave

    Regardless of political party it is obvious Olbermann is getting his ass kicked bad!!!!!! Maybe they should change the line up around a little because Hardball id getting killed!

  10. Dave

    aswell

  11. Joe

    Yes O’reilly gets better ratings but that’s from a country that elected a mentally handicapped person for president. So it seems rather fitting.

  12. Dave

    That so called mentally handicapped person scored better on his SAT than Kerry and Obama!

  13. Thomas

    This just shows how Americans love violent entertainment than truth-telling.
    After all, it’s the American people who elected Bush.

  14. Joe

    because he’s the decider. Too many OG/GYN’s aren’t able to practice their love with women all over this country. SAT my butt…this dude’s a real moron.

    At least Bush knows that there are 50 states. That idiot Barack Hussein Obama thinks theres 57 states. What a dumbass

    Wow Olberjerkoff is foaming at the mouth during his special comment. He needs a straight jacket

  17. Rclopez

    Olberman is a joke and has no business being on the air. OReilly rules and you far left koolaide drinking zombies know it.

    “Hardball”? Getting killed? I think you’re a bit confused, Dave. The only killing that I saw in relation to “Hardball” was talk show host, Kevin James ( on 5/15/08).

  20. Re: Hardball “getting killed”

    The 7PM cable news race is pretty competitive. While Hardball usually places behind Fox Report and Lou Dobbs in total viewers, it is often ahead in adults 25-54, which is the group advertisers are after.
