MSNBC’s New Attempt at Ratings
I think MSNBC is trying to start a race war. I guess they think that would be good for their ratings, but I really don’t see any plausible scenario in which large numbers of people tune in to MSNBC. Even if people want to be lied to, they at least want the people to do it to be marginally competent at it (“Let’s just crop off the black guy’s head so we can claim he’s white! No one will ever find out!”). Maybe if they set Keith Olbermann on fire and threw him off a building, people would tune in to see that. I’d consider it. So, that’s something for them to think about.

…only if he’s tied by the ankle to Rachel Maddow.

It might be a little hard for MSNBC to start said war because no one watches them, so no one actually knows that it’s going on. As for Olberman, if he was turned into a swordfish I’d watch in a heartbeat.

MSNBC is just doing it’s part to heal the racial divide, in Post-Racial O-bah-muhh’s America. Conservatives need to be wary of Faux-protesters that have been sent to infiltrate and discredit those that oppose the O-bah-muhh Nation.

Olbermann? Wasn’t he fired from ESPN for being a dick?

Olbermann? Wasn’t he Hired by MSNBC for being a dick?

That’s no accident. It takes a lot of work to push the top of the image off the screen.
How come the skinny black guy doesn’t rate a chair? Is that a liberal plantation thing or what?

Probably best scene here: http://www.politicalbyline.com/2009/08/20/action-alert-msnbc-is-now-trying-to-start-a-race-war/
That’s some straight up USSR shit right there….
The girl reporter is hot though. You think she makes snuff films? When I see the black guy I just want to sing Tennessee…

Did they really think they could do this and that no-one would notice?
I don’t get leftists. They control the Congress, the White House, most colleges, broadcast media, and a fair whack of popular culture. You’d think these people would be dancing in the streets. This sort of thing just reinforces the stereotype of leftists that I developed in college – that they are all constipated misfits with shriveled souls and deep-seated feelings of inadequacy.

…and they both landed on Chris Mathews,
on a pallet of sparklers,
next to a gasoline tanker,
and a liquid oxygen vat.
Otherwise, like most people,
I’ll continue not watching MSNBC.
Next scandal—.
Tune in tonight to see the cropped photos of baton weilding racists intimidating voters last November. Oooohhhh, those Obama hating racists!!!

I have a idea that might be more entertaining…. UFC match .. Olbermann vs. any UFC fighter, any weight class, one five minute round. I’de pay to watch that…. It wouldnt be the shortest fight UFC ever had cause the real fghter would probably spend half the round chasing Olbercoward before the action could begin.

Naaaa. Still wouldn’t.

I like Troy’s idea. Of course MSNBC would have to advertise the event on FOX – otherwise nobody would even know it was happening.
I’m getting a leg tingle thinking about Anderson Silva kneeing Keef in his dumb monkey face.

“Maybe if they set Keith Olbermann on fire and threw him off a building, people would tune in to see that.”
Can we still see the Special comment by Olberman?
August 20th, 2009 at 2:55 pm
I still wouldn’t watch MSNBC if even if keith Olberman set himself on fire on his own show.

MSNBC should be burnt down for the insurance.

Sorry to post a link if it is a no-no. A friend sent this clip re: racial tensions. I’m confused, I think I might agree with what is being said, but I’m not sure. I *THINK* he is warning that the white folks might get fed up with MSNBC nonsense, calls them out by name.

I still wouldn’t watch it – but I would definately catch the video clip here at IMAO – I can’t even begin to imagine the comments from this creative group.

“In other news, our comrades at Pravda have reported that the grain harvest in the Ukraine has tripled thanks to the noble ideas of Glorious Leader Stalin!”

I think I’d rather shoot myself in the balls with a nail gun then watch MSNBC.

Not interesting enough. Maybe if they set up a game of “Running Man” with special stalkers: Sarah Palin in an Apache helicopter, Fred Thompson in a tank with a front mounted bushog, R. Lee Ermey in his jeep with forward mounted .50 cals (Ma Duces) and Chuck Norris…well…Chuck doesn’t need to be in anything.
