Keith Olbermann has never been accused of having too much little candor. Wednesday evening he proved why.
In response to criticism over how he can support a liberal outpost like the blog the Daily Kos, Olbermann decided to unload on his rival network Fox and especially Bill O’Reilly.
It started with this:
Then he clarified and reiterated:
Not satisfied with simply criticizing Fox News, Olbermann went after one of Fox’s top personalities, Bill O’Reilly:
Then he got cute by retweeting a readers message about manure:
He ended the twitter tirade by then attacking those who believe Fox News:
A refined gentleman.
UPDATE:
Daily Rushbo has turned the tweets into a slideshow:

Dec. 30, 2010 at 9:05amHey Obermunster,
You are backing a losing horse and ideology – Obama/Socialism
all your ranting and stupid remarks cannot change these facts.
Your viewership must be looking to see how much of a fool you will be for a laugh!

Dec. 30, 2010 at 9:05amWe need people like Olbermann. He reminds me of the spoiled little kid in the neighborhood who doesn’t play well with others and keeps getting sent to his room. Some people never grow out of it. Don’t worry, eventually he’ll stop tweeting and get promoted to full-fledged liberal blogger. Then he can stay home and blog from his basement in his underwear. I can’t believe there are acutally people who read and/or listen to his drivel.

Dec. 31, 2010 at 1:14amSKIMMER57, please don’t insult people’s religion. My grandfather is a liberal, and he is a deeply caring man. He represents th Liberal Movement much better than you! Come on, man, take it easy. You may think that Mr. Beck is wrong/annoying or whatever, but you don’t have to go insulting his religion. In fact, you shouldn’t have to go insult him. You could’ve simply stated “I think Mr. Olbermann has a point.” Or whatever. You obviously don’t have the decency to do that, though.
P.S. I’m a die-hard Christian conservative. Note the order in which they came.

psst
Dec. 30, 2010 at 9:02amKeith gets more attention from Fox’s viewers than the regular 15 or so viewers that watches him on PMSNBC.
This is why he keeps on keeping on.
IMO, his bosses should refuse to pay him, they should tell him to get his paycheck from Fox,
All he does is create more viewers for Fox.
On a personal level, Keith watches Fox more than he does PMSNBC.
He’s gotta be a Fox Fan. I bet he has all the stuff that BillO pushes at his house.
I hope Fox’s executives sent Ol’ Keith a Christmas present. That’s the least they could do.I mean, TV advertising does not comes cheaply.And Ol Keith gives it to them for Free.
Then agin, mebbe not. 15 more viewers are not worth a Christmas present for Keith.

Dec. 30, 2010 at 8:59amIt seems Old Olbermann is frustrated that he does not and can not get ratings above 01% on anything he does or says. So he strikes out. If you can’t be as good as the other guys, the best defense is to lambast the other guys. It is mush bettr than the truth.
The truth would hurt Olbermann too much. and it just might be that one person may actually believe what you say. Not to mention that everyone at MSNBC will probably be out of work soon.

Jan. 1, 2011 at 3:14pmJust because you don’t watch him, he has an audience of maybe 100 people who do, so we need
to set them straight that they are watching and listening to a creepy little man who hasn’t grown up.
He’s jealous of anyone who had a bigger audience, like OReilly and everyone else on Fox. Poor little Oberman would give his eye teeth to get a contract with FOX, but heaven forbid that would happen.

Dec. 30, 2010 at 8:51amThese aren’t the only vulgar tweets Olbermann has come up with lately. He is obviously under a lot of pressure from management and his ratings. He is reacting to this pressure in exactly the wrong direction to regain any sort of credibility (which I never believed he had) This may be playing out a self fulfilling prophesy of his own professional demise. In other words, I see these outbursts as signs of implosion.

What a progressive moron. Go diddle on the Daily Kos with the rest of the clowns.

Because eventually it was all reinstated.. This is a lot of manure to me… All done for ratings that he obviously never received, and never will.. I think this is all part of his nervousness that Comcast is going to can all of the freaks on MSLSD and actually “try” to compete with the number ONE cable new channel.. Good luck ..

Dec. 30, 2010 at 1:39pmThis guy does have a serious mental problem, there were many people in the media even at his own network. Who were concerned and even predicting that Obermann would completely lose it on national television. Most thought it during the Bush years when he seemed most out of control, but he managed not to get so bad that they needed to hall him off physically on the air. Lets hope this country doesn’t fall into the hands of Communist’s other wise we could see this man leading death squads or a commissar of the ministry of opposition suppression and removal.
