MSNBC's Cramer Blow Off Job

NBC News and MSNBC told to make like ostriches and bury their heads in the embarrassing Jim Cramer Jon Stewart debacle? Olbermann Watch via Johnny Dollar's Place

Keith "How dare you, sir!" never said boo on the air about the Stewart smackdown that titilated the media mavens for hours. We hear there's bad blood between Olbermann and Stewart: Olbermann hates him. But then again, he eschews anyone who challenges him.

And since I'm boycotting any "news" about psychohost Keith Olbermann, I missed Olbermann's attack on the TV news industry blog TVNewser for dwelling in the Fox News den by posting that MSNBC brass banned covering frenetic fly Cramer swallowed by Stewart's Venus Flytrap. Nobody was muzzled claims Olbermann. Can anyone believe anything that Olbermann spews?

The Olbermann-offending TVNewser blogger Steve K. responds: Olbermann had a lot to say regarding me and the post on TVNewser yesterday regarding MSNBC producers being "asked not to incorporate the Jim Cramer/Jon Stewart interview into their shows." That information came from an anonymous tipster and was confirmed by two sources inside the network. Furthermore, all you'd have to do is watch NBC, MSNBC or CNBC during the day Friday (as we did) to notice the coverage of Cramer/Stewart was significantly less than in the days leading up to the Daily Show appearance.

It appears that Steve K. is being unfairly fingered by Olbermann when the messenger doing the shooting isn't him. ICN: "I know for a fact of at least one incident where FNC was seriously pissed off with something Krakauer wrote and stood by so that sort of undermines Olbermann’s argument that Krakauer is in FNC’s pocket."

TVNewser seemed to be "in the tank" for MSNBC and other NBC properties but lately has appeared to be canoodling with Fox News. At one point the love-in was so obvious I'd dubbed TVNewser "MSNBC's in-house organ grinder." Olbermann's ticked that TVNewser isn't marching to MSNBC's drum anymore.

Just another tempest in the Olbermann teapot. The jerk's endless loop jism just doesn't jazz this jaded journo...

  2. Anyone doing 2 seconds of reserach can find why Keithy Pedophilemann claims this Steve K, another fine product of Hillary Dumbass Clinton's Media Matters, is in the tank for FOX NEWS. He once was a "production assistant" at FOX. So Keithy Pedophilemann was a "sports anchor" for FOX SPORTS. So is Keithy Pediophilemann saying a Lowly "production assistant" had more POWER THAN HIS FAT ASS AT FOX?

  3. The folks at the big Fox network should have a weekly cartoon show called "Olby" to replace "The Simpsons". It can be about a little boy with a man's head that runs around pretending he's somebody important and then goes on screaming fits when nobody pays attention. The series debut can feature little Olby with his red-faced fat head stuck in the wrought iron fence surrounding the White House, screaming that he should be Press Secretary. Maybe during closing credits, a Portuguese water dog can race across the White House lawn and then try humping Olby's leg.

    Guess I have trouble taking Keith Olbermann seriously....
