  • Olbermann/Matthews demotions

    Did you really think NBC would actually reign in the very beasts they unleashed and quite actively advertised as exactly what they were, left wing op/ed guys instead of news anchors? Seems to me they gave NBC exactly what they've been looking for these past 8 years.

    Is this true? Those two actually got DEMOTED?

    If so, it's a great day for normalcy and pro-Americanism.

    NBC needs to bring back Tim Russert to replace those two. In his present situation, his commentary would be infinitely better than Mathews or Olberman. And he could do some really HOT interviews with former Democrats residing the same place.

    What? What did I say ......
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?

      Does Olbermann still live in his Mom's basement?
      After lunch the players lounged about the hotel patio watching the surf fling white plumes high against the darkening sky. Clouds were piling up in the west… Vince Lombardi frowned.

          Anchors for election coverage...who cares.

          Olberman is no different than O'reilly.

          That one is a bully and the other a scold is just a stylistic distinction that suits their constituencies.

                  Olbermann is turning into the very thing he hates so much- Bill O'Reilly. He's turned into an absolute hack that will say whatever it takes to put down the GOP.

                  Matthews' demotion I don't get. He's the best political thinker that they have and he's relatively objective, although he is definitely a Dem.

                      I think he's done it consciously because it's lucrative to compete with O'Reilly as the voice of the left. Hating O'Reilly is just part of competing with him.

                        I think MSNBC has made the mistake of thinking that liberals want to watch a left wing version of Fox News. I watched some of the Dem Convention, and got really tired of the cheerleading. Apparently I wasn't alone. They've got a mess on their hands.

                          i hate olbermann, he is nasty and narrow minded.


                          don't need to watch tv to get that level of analysis, just read the comments at blogs.

                            They're kind of making the same mistake as Air America. People don't enjoy the relentless negative spiteful viewpoint.

                            I liked Olbermann's show a lot when it first debuted. He was funny and pretty much took shots at everyone. I noticed the change to the left right away, and never tuned in again.

                              And now, they've hired Air America hack Rachel Maddow for her own show. MSNBC's so far left, it's not even funny.
