While it is well known that MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann is the most viciously liberal voice to host a news program within the mainstream media, even he normally tones down his anti-conservative, anti-Republican vitriol when anchoring special events like election results. But during MSNBC’s coverage of the Massachusetts special Senate election, Olbermann’s presentation was more rabidly partisan than if the Democratic National Committee itself were producing the show.
As he anchored a special 10:00 p.m. edition of Countdown, Olbermann not only used one of his "Quick Comment" segments to repeat his infamous attack from the day before on Republican Senator-elect Scott Brown, but he also impatiently interrupted Brown’s victory speech, and, while Brown was still speaking, went on to give a second "Quick Comment" blaming Tea Party protesters and Fox News for the vulgar "tea bagger" term being attached to the Tea Party movement.
At 10:19 p.m., Olbermann delivered a "Quick Comment" in which he sarcastically pretended that he would apologize for his attack on Senator-elect Scott Brown from the previous day in which he had called Brown an "irresponsible, homophobic, racist, reactionary, ex-nude model, tea bagging, supporter of violence against women and against politicians with whom he disagrees."
But instead, the MSNBC host renewed the attack and added the word "sexist" because Brown did not respond to an out of line attack from an audience member on his opponent, Massachusetts Attorney General Martha Coakley, which Senator-elect Brown may not even have heard. Olbermann began his "Quick Comment":
I wanted to apologize for calling Senator-elect Scott Brown an "irresponsible, homophobic, racist, reactionary, ex-nude model, tea bagging, supporter of violence against women and against politicians with whom he disagrees." I’m sorry, I left out the word "sexist."
Olbermann went on to call Brown "horrifically unqualified" for the Senate and challenged conservative critics to prove him wrong in his attacks on the Massachusetts Republican.
At about 10:41 p.m., after Brown had spent 10 minutes on his victory speech, Olbermann grew impatient as the Massachusetts Republican started teasing his daughters and joking about his conversation with President Obama, as the MSNBC host jumped in and cracked: "Before we get to the chowder recipes of the family, we’re going to take a pause to discuss this."
FNC notably showed all 27 minutes of Brown’s victory speech, as well as all eight minutes of Coakley’s concession speech, with the exception of a brief interruption at 10:00 p.m. when Greta Van Susteren cut in to take over the reins from Sean Hannity and introduce the 10:00 p.m. hour of coverage. CNN only showed about the first seven minutes of each speech. MSNBC had also shown all eight minutes of Coakley's concession speech, which started several minutes before 10:00 p.m. while Rachel Maddow was hosting and ended several minutes after 10:00 while Olbermann was hosting.
At 10:50 p.m., while Senator-elect Brown was still speaking, Olbermann returned from a commercial break and exclaimed, "My God, he’s still talking!" before delivering his second "Quick Comment" of the hour blaming Tea Party activists and FNC’s Griff Jenkins for first using the term "tea bag" as a verb, a word which Olbermann and other MSNBC hosts later picked up on to mock Tea Party activists by hinting at the vulgar sexual meaning of the term. Olbermann began his comment by again indirectly calling Brown a "tea bagger":
My God, he’s still talking! Senator-elect Brown is still giving his victory speech tonight in Boston. Howard Fineman will help me wrap it up -- if he wraps it up -- in a moment. First, the second of tonight’s "Quick Comments." The tea baggers have elected their first guy tonight, and, thus, they will expecting legislation by tomorrow making it a death penalty offense to call them "tea baggers."
After recounting one of the earlier uses of the term "tea bag" used as a verb by a Tea Party activist and by FNC’s Griff Jenkins, Olbermann concluded: "Thus, the verb to ‘tea bag’ was invented by the tea baggers themselves. And the correspondent who put it on TV was one Griff Jenkins of Fox News. Send your complaints to him."
Below is a transcript of relevant portions of the 10:00 p.m. hour of the Countdown show from Tuesday, January 19 on MSNBC:
10:19 p.m.
KEITH OLBERMANN: Lawrence O’Donnell joins me next on the future of health care reform, but first we stay in Massachusetts for the first of tonight’s "Quick Comments." I wanted to apologize for calling Senator-elect Scott Brown an "irresponsible, homophobic, racist, reactionary, ex-nude model, tea bagging, supporter of violence against women and against politicians with whom he disagrees." I’m sorry, I left out the word "sexist."
And I left out the story of the day Brown, upset by online criticism from some students, went to the school and swore at the entire student body. I’m very sorry. For all the blowback from the right on this comment from people who regularly mutter worse things about Barack Obama in their sleep, when it came to the facts that I cited to paint this picture of this horrifically unqualified Senator-elect, we have heard nothing – no contrary evidence, no refutation, not even a plausible excuse. And to the point of excuse, it can be argued that Brown should have been given the benefit of the doubt after a supporter shouted at him that they should "shove a curling iron up Martha Coakley’s butt" that he did not hear that, that when Brown then said "we can do this," he was not responding to the lunatic in the crowd.
But the Boston Globe makes an unanswerable point about that. Even if Brown really didn’t hear it, where was his later statement decrying the obscenity and violence his supporter had suggested? Not only did Mr. Brown not offer even the mildest reproach, but when pressed for one by Senator Kerry, Brown replied only that people are tired of John Kerry’s partisan politics. In Senator-elect Brown, we have an irresponsible, homophobic, racist, reactionary, sexist, ex-nude model, tea bagging supporter of violence against women and against politicians with whom he disagrees. And if he or you don’t like that characterization, my answer to you is simple: Disprove it because he hasn’t.
10:41 p.m.
OLBERMANN: Before we get to the chowder recipes of the family, we’re going to take a pause to discuss this.
10:50 p.m.
OLBERMANN: My God, he’s still talking! Senator-elect Brown is still giving his victory speech tonight in Boston. Howard Fineman will help me wrap it up -- if he wraps it up -- in a moment. First, the second of tonight’s "Quick Comments." The tea baggers have elected their first guy tonight, and, thus, they will expecting legislation by tomorrow making it a death penalty offense to call them "tea baggers." It is thus useful to remind them and you how the term originated and with whom. A TV news report aired last March 14 in which a correspondent described the original protest act. Quote, "Take a tea bag, put it in an envelope, and mail it to the White House." Adding, "ReTeaParty.com has a headline: Tea bag the fools in D.C. on tax day." Thus, the verb to "tea bag" was invented by the tea baggers themselves. And the correspondent who put it on TV was one Griff Jenkins of Fox News. Send your complaints to him.

Like usual I had my TV tuned into Fox but had to flick over to Obama's MSNBC and watched live on TV Tingle and Maddow having meltdowns. It was great and lucked out not having to see Olberdouche.
So many ironies surrounding Scott Brown's win and today what does Obama have to celebrate? Theft of our economy is not reason to celebrate - probably for him and his fellow commies but not for the American people.

Re Beck
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 12:31 ET by slickwillie2001Beck's show helps but it falls well short of what is needed. Fox News needs to make a major effort to do a Ken Burns-style documentary on the American progressive movement. This is a topic that the liberals that for the most part write the K-College history books have swept under the rug. The truth should come out and I don't see anyone else but Fox News doing it. Let Jonah Goldberg direct it.

Perverts
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 12:53 ET by miss911ninjaAnd the use of tea bags as the symbol of the tea parties was totally innocent. Tea bags can found in the kitchens of most Americans and are especially favored by little old ladies. If it's true that the term "tea bag" was first used as a verb on Fox, it hardly absolves the left of responsibility for perverting it and turning the tea bag into testicles.

Olbermann and MSNBC
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 07:19 ET by BondPlainBondI stayed tuned to MSNBC during the election returns. I knew it'd be an evening of hilarity and knee-slapping. From Rachel Maddow saying Brown was insane and a liar to Olbermann cutting off Brown's acceptance speech because, well, Olbermann thought he "talked too much."
Wow. MSNBC is in free fall.
Independent thinkers in Massachusetts told Obama to straighten up and fly right - or else - and that does have a trickle down effect to the "news" organization that has made no bones about being Obama's (lying) mouthpiece.
Olbermann and his smarmy attitude should FiretrUCK OFF.
watching MSNBC et al
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 07:53 ET by mtfujiI watched as many of the main stream media channels as I could last night, and it was gratifying watching all of the liberal pundits trying to spin this historic moment in US politics. Think about, how in the world could a republican win in Mass? The PEOPLE aren't as stupid as the liberals think - thank God!
I also watched Howard Dean pontificating on MSNBC and I thought he was going to have a stroke. I don't know, maybe he's always like that. But regardless, he was clueless as to what was (is) going on. The crazy thing was that at one point even Maddow was questioning his logic. When has that ever happened before?

Knowing full well that Olbermann had already dropped any pretense of reporting, and he'd indulged himself in his venom, there were executives at NBC (you know, the same people who brought you the Leno/Conan mess) who intentionally allowed Olbermann to be the on-air reporter covering this story.
They knew what he was going to do. They allowed it. They're equally responsible for his behavior, and his complete lack of class. He is them.

Questions
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 07:43 ET by hydrodynDMMaybe someone can clarify this for me.
On MSNBC, following the concession to Brown (sometime between 10:00 and 10:30pm), there was a segment where Olbermann had both Matthews and Maddow on. Each gave their opinions about what the Democrats had to do to recover and both were emphatic about the necessity of passing a Health Care bill.
Following each of their comments, folks in the background - apparently in the studio - began to applaud and hoot in support of those comments.
My questions is - assuming I didn't imagine or misinterpret what was going on - where those folks in the background MSNBC employees??
→ Probably
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 07:50 ET by Cool ArrowOf course they could get the same effect with their stash of blow-up dolls and an applause track.

Wed, 01/20/2010 - 08:00 ET by motherbeltI don't know if they were employees, but that's a hoot!
Typical liberals. A guy promising to vote against their health care bill gets elected by a margin they would be calling a "blowout" if it went the other way, and they think the solution is....
to hurry up and PASS that same legislation????
Because, of course, once it's passed, the proles will realize just how wonderful it is, and will thank their masters for taking such good care of them, because they didn't know any better.
They really, literally, DO NOT GET IT!

It's above amazing that MSNBC allows olbermann to have a program that so few people watch. As for fineman, the only reason anyone would have to buy his magazine is to use it as a bird cage liner or wrap a dead, smelly fish since it doesn't have any journalistic value.

And from THAT apparently he, MSNBC and assorted leftnuts got the idea to say "tea-bagger" every other word.
That's Olbermann's big news. Sad and pathetic isn't it?
Yeah, Jack
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 08:39 ET by Cool ArrowPathetic is right.
But funny was Olbermann, in the same sentence, makes fun of gays while he calls Brown a homophobe.
If the slang definition of "teabagging" isn't a queer joke, nothing is.

Wed, 01/20/2010 - 08:37 ET by Zamora1This was a Tea Party candidate. One of many to come. We swept into Massachusetts from across this great nation to ensure that a candidate, who understood the will of the people, was duly elected by the people, to speak for the people. We learned a new trick, how to take a local issue and make it a national fundraiser. Bill Clinton said in a recent Speech “It started with the Boston Tea Party, and the right wing Republicans have appropriated that on the premise the tea party was against government. What they were against was abuse of power." Right. We won't stand for the abuse Bill. The party is over and its time to send them home.

And if he or you don’t like that characterization, my answer to you is simple: Disprove it because he hasn’t."
Wow. That was fun!
Remember, the new rule for Olbermann is: Say whatever you like about him, then just dare him to "disprove" it... Nah, not really. But wouldn't it be a blast to operate as recklessly and irrationally as he does?

A Tree Falls in the Forest
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 12:48 ET by djm159Let me see if I have this; A sports caster with the IQ and class of a chimp (with no disrepect to the chimp) is calling someone else inexperienced. 104 days in the US Senate does not mean experience jackpot for president yet he carries the water for Barry every chance he gets. Calling Scott Brown a homophobe, a sexist, a tea bagger, etc., etc., is just vile rhetoric which on the surface is angering and if anyone was listening it might be frightening but as the old adage says "If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there does it make a noise?" O'Reilly 3.5 million viewers, Hannity 2.6 million viewers and Beck (not in prime time) 2.5 million viewers, Olbermann 477,000 viewers. It think the numbers speak for themselves. Let Captain Loudmouth ramble, no one of importance is listening. If the Tea Party movement is responsible for last night then hallelujah. It seems to me more to the point, Americans want the country back and are taking it back one state at a time. Let's hope B. Hussein Obama campaigns for every democrat being opposed; he is 0 for 4. Even Olbermann should understand those statistics.
This is confirmation that Olbermann knows what "teabagging" mean
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 13:09 ET by OxyCon...and yet, even though Olbermann knows that it's a disgusting XXX-rated word, instead of being a decent person and cease using it, he ups the ante and increases his use of it while blaming someone else.

Interesting that you're
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 15:46 ET by Another Dead KennedyInteresting that you're offended by "teabagger," but have no problem using the the phrase "dirty sanchez." I'll leave it at that.

I turned over to that
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 14:45 ET by WhoaI turned over to that network during the victory speech and left it on for an hour. Man was it ever satisfying to see and hear the derision those people were spewing, them and every guest they had.
For one hour? You must have a great tolerance for...

Wed, 01/20/2010 - 17:18 ET by Cool ArrowI flipped over to KoJo, Prissy, and Ray Maddow too.
It was like the SNL of the '70s.

Thank you Keith Olbermann. As long as there are...
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 17:05 ET by jawebster1people like you on the side of the Democrats, regular Americans are going to look at you and say: "No way I want to be on his side!". Fortunately for you, you are not seen by very many people. I believe that there are more regular people in America than there are wild, ranting lunatics like "Olberdork" and I can't wait until 11/2/2010 for vindication. Democrats, heed this: "You can fool some of the people some of the time, but you can't fool all of the people all of the time." Jim Webster
O my!
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 17:15 ET by KansasgirlI find this person hilarious. Just let this person self-implode.
Cannot Prove a Negative
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 17:16 ET by JanineChey keithy-weithy... didn't anyone ever tell you that you cannot "disprove" something?? It is up to YOU to prove that your statement is true--NOT the other way around.
Keithy-weithy, you are utterly absurd. Everything you do is just obnoxious and moronic. In fact, five-year olds are more mature than you. So, Keithy-weithy, I say to you..."disprove it" Ha ha ha
Why don't you and the smirking Madcow go somewhere where people would appreciate you...like the frozen tundra of Siberia. Oh that's right! You are already there...it is called MSNBC!
Gotta go...Cannot stand looking at ignorant old men and ugly smirking bulldykes that have not a single shred of decency in them. Yes, I am lowering myself to the leftist level here...but it is just because these fools refuse to stop using the pejorative: "teabaggers".
VICTORY
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 17:25 ET by coolfl33WE WIN, WE WIN.
Keith and MSNBC are on the way out. Time to let MSNBC know that we are not going to tolerate them allowing their mouthpieces attack us with lies and racial slurs.
We probably gave Keith his highest numbers, since no one else is watching MSNBC.
I don't understand what
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 17:40 ET by Another Dead KennedyI don't understand what you're saying. Do you think yesterday's election had something to do with MSNBC?
It was HILARIOUS watching
Wed, 01/20/2010 - 17:52 ET by chicagotraumaIt was HILARIOUS watching MSNBC last nite. Olbermans head was unusually large as it was set to explode and Madcow was eating crow.Awesome.
Chowder recipes?
Fri, 01/22/2010 - 19:20 ET by annoyedmanOlberman is a feckless, mullet brained poodle. MSNBC is rumored to have tried hiring Soupy Sales before his death to replace Olberman, but Sales had a reputation to maintain and wouldn't consider working for MSNBC because he didn't think they took their own reputation seriously enough. Similar attempts to attract Elmer Fudd, Heckle and Jeckle, Mr. Green Jeans, and Roger Rabbit to supplant Olberman in the MSNBC anchor spot also failed for similar reasons. Fudd was overheard to say, "Woo muss think ahm some kind of weetahd to offuh me dat!"
So unfortunately, we have to put up with Olberman until MSNBC either alienates every single advertiser and folds, or until MSNBC's management wakes up and begs the National Inquirer to take over, relegating Olberman to a role for which he is really better qualified — interviewing alien abductees and the guy who grows the world's largest cabbage every year.
