It's with some relief knowing that there is something of an "antidote" to the venom that gets spewed over the airwaves.

"Good night and good luck" I see what he did there...

Sorry, guys, but though I think gays should have the right to legal marriages, I think Keith Olbermann is a drama queen, and I have trouble taking anything he says seriously.

Did you notice the sustained low tone underscoring the second video? Good grief.

Those kinds of cheap theatrics are the main reason I avoid the pundit all-stars now matter which side of the argument they are on.

Perhaps instead of a desk, his studio set should be the bow of a ship with wind and rain lashing across his face. He could also hold a sword aloft and shake it during the really strong bits.

I'd start watching TV again!

sounds like a poorly-grounded microphone to me. A technical problem. Stretching it a bit, I think, to suggest he did it on purpose.

Fair enough. You're probably right.

It is a common trick used on tabloid newsmagazine shows like 20/20, Dateline and Hardcopy to paint the characters in their stories. Perhaps someday we'll see it creep into more straight news and op-ed media.

Here is where I wish I could post a clip of "Rock Bottom" from that Simpsons episode where Homer is accused of sexually harassing the babysitter.

And yes, O'Reilly is a buffoon.
