The guy's show is amazing. He has a real gift for exposing the right's constant lies.

He comes off as a genius because the truth doesn't need spinning
He actually has an easier gig than the conservatives who have to remember to keep their stories straight to cover all of their propaganda, disinformation, misinformation, and lies...that's why you'll hear all of the right wing empty headed pundits saying the exact same thing every day. They work together to sell their corporate sponsored falsehoods. Olbermann just tells the truth.
Olbermann, like Mike Malloy is an honest truth-seeker.
Try "Democracy Now" ( Direct TV) if you haven't already...more truth telling in a world of corporate lies

I can see why the typical liberal with a single digit I.Q. considers Keith Olbermann a talented "genius". But the fact is he's a mean spirited idiot who appeals mainly to mutants or farm animals.

I had to do some research before I answered this, because I have never heard of him. From what I learned, he's no genius, just another pansy Liberal who got fired from being a sportscaster from ESPN. I also see where he is dead last in the ratings night after night,...NO WONDER I NEVER HEARD OF HIM!!
It appears that Bill O Reilly guy on FOX news creams him every night!

Inside the NBC system he is a laughing stock because they wanted a reporter to volunteer to go to Iraq and Obermann hid under his desk:)

Yes, Olbermann's hilarious. I love the "World's Worst" bit.

All he's really doing is stating what should be obvious to every American only he is very articulate & very funny. He's part news anchor & part Jon Stewart/Colbert. Nobody rips Bush as well as he does. Somebody should give him an award.

We finally got somebody with clarity, energy, and a stylish show that counters the Fox-Rush high energy shows.
Such a nice change from the "put to you to sleep" show of Al Franken.
Olbermann's formula is exactly the right strategy to stand toe to toe with the conservative spin out there.

The guy puts a liberal spin off of any piece of information he gets. No he is not a genius.

I don't know if he is a genius, but he certainly tells it like it is. I am thankful there is someone out there to counter the Rights BS.
