Open Challenge to Olbermann on Edwards Coverage(as in NONE!)

Lots of folks of a Liberal bent seem to think you can do NO WRONG. They really dig what I've come to think of as your "Channeling Edward R. Murrow."
I don't make it a point to watch your show , my big Sister is practically a groupie!

JOHN EDWARDS WALKED ALL OVER OBAMA AN HILLARY LAST NIGHT.
He WON that Debate HANDS DOWN!
So why no coverage in the Corporate Media? ( of which I , personally consider you a member.)

Show you're the STAND UP GUY all these people seem to think you are and prove their admiration is deserved !
Come on, I double dog , make that triple dog DARE YOU!Admit Edwards SHOWN ABOVE THE FRAY LAST NIGHT! At least acknowledge his strong showing.

Of course, you don't have to any attention to little old me, but it would be nice to see you aren't bought and paid for too!

Anybody else have anything to add?

Right now Would be great for Obermann Show For Edwards...of course Hillary and Obama Would Demand to go on as well!

If he is how can he keep quiet when something as BLATANT as this is going on?
I wish he'd step up!

It sure would be refreshing for at least SOMEONE to do so!

My big Sis thinks he hung the moon! I'd like to see him worthy of such adulation!

for KO or someone to actually do a piece on the affect of MSM on the elections.

We have plenty of charts for him...lol...showing how frivolous the stories they carry are, how biased they are, or how absent they are (Edwards, Kucinich, et al).

Last night's show was DURING the debate.

Then again, if he disagrees with you about the "WON HANDS DOWN" part, I suspect you might not be pleased with his take on things regardless. In other words, if he focuses on the Hillary-Obama fireworks and asks, more as an afterthought than anything else, whether all their bickering made Edwards look good by comparison, something tells me you might not think that enough. Unless he says "It's obvious to me, Edwards WON HANDS DOWN," you will think he's an MSM shill.

As for me, I think he deserves my admiration regardless of whether or not he agrees with me about this candidate or that one, and he certainly doesn't have to give any one of them the attention I believe they deserve in order to prove to me that he's not "bought and paid for." To my mind, he's already proven that many times over.

And that's what I have to add.

yes, they looked like a couple of third graders! I was almost surprised they didn't stick their tongues out at each other.
And , who can argue that EDWARDS was the most substantial, on point candidate we saw last night? He said he implement what sounded to me like a "Green" WPA within "30 days " in office!
WHY SHOULD HIS COVERAGE BE AN " AFTERTHOUGHT"?

I won't tell him how to do his job... but if he doesn't, he'll hear from me then. :)

We'll see how it goes.

:-) KO and Howard Fineman focus on how good Edwards looked by comparison and his role in this whole thing before going back to Da Fite.

:thumbsup:

mea culpa!

I was righter about Keith than I knew.

Now, ON TO LETTERMAN!

His guest (can't recall the name) commented on the strength of Edwards in the debate, his focus on issues.
Keith then pushed an Edwards story before the break.

:shrug:

it was a challenge

It looks like the challenge was, in some way, accepted.
Thanks, though.

Thanks! :hi:

Maybe they have the whole thing on the CNN web site.

and specifically about Edwards.

Thanks again.

They went into the repub side, then Best Persons.

about what a genius Edwards looks like for having proposed a stimulus plan weeks ago. And a WPA-like plan.

It was great segment :D Keep the pressure up stravu9 :hi:

Oh wait, here's Rachel Maddow up talking about JRE now !

KO has constantly talked about Edwards when talking about the candidates. He talked about him on the main MSNBC coverage
last weekend. He talked about him on his show. He even had him on his show. I don't think he's had Hillary or Barrack on the show, and I'm sure he's asked.

But I have seen Edwards dismissed by main stream Media and Kieth was no exception.
His candidacy is not as "SEXY" as the "WE ARE MAKING HISTORY" angle of , how did Obama put it? " A Woman , a BLack Man and...John."

He's had John on, he's had Elizabeth on...he says he wants HER for president.

The guy deserves credit...I think he's been pretty fair to Edwards.

yeah , I can see that happening!

written before Keith's show tonight. I watch Keith every night, he's definitely more fair and balanced with his election coverage than the rest of MSNBC's shows.

Keith even wrote a diary at Daily Kos ... http://www.dailykos.com/story/2008/1/18/135219/103

He definitely responds to bloggers!

I hope he will cover him.
