Rosie O’Donnell: ‘Keith Olbermann – the Best News Show on TV’

Those that have wondered how someone like Rosie O'Donnell can be so disturbingly wrong about virtually every important issue of the day got an answer Thursday afternoon: she gets her news from Keith Olbermann.

In fact, not only does Rosie think "Countdown" is actually a news program, she believes it's "the best news show on TV."

Explains a lot, doesn't it?

After all, it's one thing to watch this show for the entertainment value, but quite another to be so intellectually challenged as to be incapable of divining the difference between news and opinion.

Yet, if you fast-forward to minute 2:00 of the following video, you will actually see and hear Rosie make possibly her most addle-minded statement to date:

And hey, Keith Olbermann - the best news show on TV. If you're only going to watch one, watch that guy. Important stuff he's saying every night. Bravo, Keith Olbermann.

Amazing admission, wouldn't you agree? In the end, she's just one of the 800,000 some odd Americans that watches "Countdown," and part of likely a much smaller group that doesn't realize it's an opinion program rather than a news show.

I guess we shouldn't be that surprised, should we?

Finally, for those that just can't get enough of Rosie, on Friday, she posted a video wherein she spoke about the failed deal with MSNBC, and indicated that she wants to do a show on the Internet (fast-forward to minute 4:54):

So, I'm going to figure out a way to do a show here, in my blogville, because I really think it's the next way anyway. Who the hell wants to work for a company with three letters that's just going to get mad when you tell people what you're doing?...Listen, I'm too old! When you're young, you'll do those things. 'Yes, I won't tell anyone! Lock me in the NBC vault!'"

Hmmm. Great idea, Ro. You finally said something I agree with.

It's about time.
