    Not a Word on KO

    Olbermann had two mentions of Bill O'Reilly as "Worst Person in the World", his ongoing (and rather tedious) war with Fox, but nary a word on McCaffrey or the Times expose.

    *sigh*

    I quit watching tee bee in 2004, and even then I only watched a few cable news shows. Now, I read transcripts and watch a couple of podcasts.

    I tuned in to "Countdown" tonight to see if maybe, just maybe, KO would make McCaffrey or Brian Williams the WPITW.

    I didn't really expect it, but I was sorta hoping I was wrong.

    Oh well.

    I think we could find plenty of photogenic people for our Intertubes News Show. I'm actually pretty cute, fwiw. And I can speak in complete sentences, also, too.
