"Worst Person in the World"

By Keith Olbermann
Anchor
Countdown

Every night at 8 p.m. on MSNBC, Keith Olbermann awards his daily pick for "Worst Person in the World." Some contenders are lucky — or unlucky —enough to be nominated more than once.


The bronze goes to Bill-O, again just a bronze. How have the mighty fallen. He told his radio audience that, "I don’t own an i-Pod. I would never own an i-Pod. If this is your primary focus in life, the machines, do you ever talk to these computer geeks, I mean, can you carry on a conversation with them?"

One of the services Bill sells on his merchandise website: O’Reilly downloads and podcasts.

The runner-up: the guys running the Wal-Mart at West Bend, Wisconsin. During the Play Station Three debacle last week they announced to the crowd of about 50 waiting outside the store that they only expected to have ten of the games available for sale, so they’d be putting ten chairs out in front and the ten people who sat down first would get to buy the games. Several people were trampled and one guy had to go to the emergency room after he ran head first into a pole.

But our winner Michael “Weiner” Savage.

Last week he insisted the radical homosexual agenda will not stop until it subjugates the rest of the country.

His latest remarks: "Who do you think controls what comes out of Hollywood? I think the purple hand is all over Hollywood.

He then predicts those remarks will wind up, "In several of the blogs run by gays and they think only of that because they’re like drug addicts.

For God’s sakes Mike, will you just cut to the chase and come out of the closet? Michael “Weiner” Savage, Monday's "Worst Person in the World."

'Worst Person in the World': Michael Savage - Countdown with Keith Olbermann - MSNBC.com


First this Keith Olbermann starts out making fun of Bill O' reilly for making fun of people who run thier lives around gadgetry. He moves ON to writing about some nobodies who run, or work at a Wal-Mart.


He moves to Michael Savage. He makes sure to point out Savages real last name to us. Knowing this would appeal to the immature mindset of liberals everywhere. He then cherry picks a few of Savages comments nicely separated from the entire context in which they were MADE and goes onto suggesting that Michael Savage is a closet homosexual. Based on this garbage Savage is the worst person in the world

Seems I recall a thread here about how the media isn't liberal. If this isn't evidence that the media IS liberal then you're not paying attention. These are the exact same kinds of "arguments" made by liberals every DAY.

They just hate Savage for exposing liberalism as a mental disorder. Here's yet another piece of evidence proving that he was/is right

Keith Olbermann rants too much for me to pay attention to what he says.

I agree that the media is more liberal that conservative. I find that a good thing.

I have my own method of finding the middle ground. It's not difficult to recognize the networks that are biased if a person has an open mind.

Maybe this Olderman is funny too. Although I might not find desperate attempts like this funny.

I guess thats it. It sure is easy for me to see the bias in the way the networks present things. A lot of people wouldn't see it though without someone explaining it to them.

If I can expect a bunch of liberal bashing it might not be for me.

The bashing from either side usually goes over my head.That's why I steer clear of biased talking heads.

I'm familiar with Liberalism is a Mental Disorder. It was a topic on another forum. It's about as biased as it gets.

FOX News Channel
New York Post
Washington Times
Glenn Beck
Joe Scarborough
Tucker Carlson
Lou Dobbs
Fox doesn't belong there. As for the rest, aren't some of those local newspapers ? Some individuals ? We're talking about the mainstream news media's left leaning tendencies. MSNBC, CBS, ABC.

So you think Savage is a closet homo because he's not PRO gay

Then he caught O'Reilly in his gaffe with the Nazi prisoners, where O'Reilly insisted that he was right, but was wrong.

The times that I've caught "Worst Person in the World" it was alright.

Well Ok.

There's quite a difference between reading something and understanding something. If I remember correctly you decided not to even READ the entire book because you didn't like it and think "Savage sucks".

You can expect a lot of information. Information on the dangerous kind(s) of "ideas" liberals are trying to push down our throats.

Anyone can write a peice saying "liberals are stupid" in ten million creative ways. It takes some work and research to find the actual REASONS they're DANGEROUS. They aren't ALL stupid (liberals). The SMART ones are dangerous because they're able to make foolish people beleive that their ideas are GOOD.

Sure it's biased (his interpreting and writing). The information IN it isn't though. Its just information. Decide if his bias is right or not after reading the information many of us are ignorant of.
