Olbermann Admits He’s An Obama Sycophant
During his coverage of Michelle Obama’s speech at the Democrat convention tonight Keith Olbermann actually admitted that he’s beginning to sound “borderline sycophantic.”
OLBERMANN: That could not have done better for them. That could not have done better for them. Right to the point of the little girls taking the mikes away and suddenly turning out to be hams. It’s wonderful. It really was terrific. And notice, did you notice throughout that, especially as it built towards its conclusion, the woman in that convention hall--the ones we saw at least--we can’t say every one--but there were tears throughout among the women. And it was not a maudlin speech, it was not a salesmanship speech. There was just a—I know, I’m beginning to sound borderline sycophantic on this. So I’ll stop. You start.
Really, Keith? Just borderline?
I’d have thought the Obamas would have had him on the payroll by now. They probably would, except that a) Olbermann is more than willing to do this stuff for free and b) he seems to have a cable viewing audience roughly the size of the average cat blogger’s audience.
