Riding a ratings wave from “Countdown With Keith Olbermann,” a program that takes strong issue with the Bush administration, MSNBC is increasingly seeking to showcase its nighttime lineup as a welcome haven for viewers of a similar mind.
Lest there be any doubt that the cable channel believes there is ratings gold in shows that criticize the administration with the same vigor with which Fox News’s hosts often champion it, two NBC executives acknowledged yesterday that they were talking to Rosie O’Donnell about a prime-time show on MSNBC.
Years from now when history is investigating just how we were misled by this administration, Keith Olbermann will be considered a hero who took he administration on when most others were still afraid of being challenged on their patriotism.
These days it is easy for everybody to pile on but when Keith started he was a lone voice of reason in a sea sycophantic news coverage.
We ALL owe Keith Olbermann and Countdown a huge vote of thanks.
Thank you Keith.
you are right we do owe him...and need to write MSNBC again....
