20. Gibson's story is...
That when the rest of Cable News was reporting on Princess Diana's death and Monica Lewinsky 24-7, Keith had enough, and chose to stay in his bathtub rather than do another night of Lewinsky.

22. Thanks for the real story.
That sounds about right.
But it sounds like something Keith said first and then they just tagged him with it.

They're always trying to show Keith in the worst possible light.

5. Geeze, the RW mouthpieces are being called out and
they become little, petulant, bitches. I think they know their days are numbered. They see the writing on the wall. I don't know what they are so worried about, WalMart is always hiring...

24. Abrams hasn't been general manager at MSNBC for some time.
But anyone who says he "refused to do a leadin to Abrams' show" is a liar. He did one for a long time. I don't know why it stopped, but I'm sure it had nothing to do with him. He used to hand off to other people, including Joe Scarborough and Rita Cosby, who had shows immediately after his. (They're talking about the transition from his live show to the 9 PM show, whatever it may be.)

8. I was watching when this exchange took place on MSNBC.
I was so proud of Keithy.

I don't think he "got Abrams fired." Abrams's show sucked; my husband and I always rushed to hit the mute button when Keithy ended, so we wouldn't have to listen to Abrams. Rachel will rock that time slot. Abrams is still around, anyway-- he'll be doing commentary, and hosting some of the daytime hours.

"Bathtub boy"? Does that have to do with the anthrax hoax to which Keith was subjected last year? Some of the right-wing whack-jobs were thrilled with that. They think it's hilarious when a lefty gets death threats.

May all right-wing pundits get what they deserve.

25. Keith indeed did not "get Abrams fired."
He still works at MSNBC.

Olbermann Watch is made up off asswipes.

15. Well, gibson could try on some facts for a change.
He should talk. He of the ratings that were SO bad they rivaled tucker carlson's, and it costs him his own TV show.

I think the green-eyed monster is raising its nasty head here. gibson's jealous! His ratings were almost nonexistent. They rendered his show unsustainable. As I recall, noting mediabistro every so often, gibson's show had the lowest ratings on Pox as far as primetimers go. So methinks he's simply jealous as hell. 'Cause he's banished from on-camera and Keith is riding high, ratings consistently the strongest on MSNBC and steadily on the increase, bringing on ANOTHER one with Rachel Maddow's ascendance - she's his first spin-off - and coanchoring all the big stuff! Keith Olbermann is pulling that whole network up out of obscurity singlehandedly, giving it a strong identity and niche in a market that had none, and has recognized, targeted, and is winning a large, and heretofore un-recognized and un-served, downright ignored chunk of audience (one that, itself, is growing substantially), gibson. What have YOU done lately?

Oh, yeah, and one more thing. "BATHTUB BOY"??????????????????? Um... "...off sitting in his bathtub..." - you just make that up all by your widdle self, john? THAT is the best you can do? THAT'S all you can come up with? Wow. I'm whelmed. :eyes:

18. trollop
Did you just call Gibson a cunt? And I'll bet you weren't even a POW.
Tsk, tsk.

PS Calling Gibson a cunt gives cunts a bad name.
In fact, calling him anything gives someone/something a bad name.
Lower than whaleshit is my fall-back pejorative, for now.

Except for dubya ....... I'll save that for later.

14. John Gibson has been fired everywhere he's worked
He couldn't even keep a job at Pox. I wonder how much of Newscorpse 30% devaluation can be attributed to John Gibson. For all intents and purposes, the bleached blond squawking squirrel is unemployable in the broadcasting business. He's just another one from the GOP ministry of propaganda that will be pushing a shopping cart filled with tin cans around lower Manhattan. Wasn't John Gibson once arrested for public masturbation?

16. Who cares what John Gibson thinks?
Maybe he'd like to repeat the Obama-attended-a-madrassa story?

Scumbag indeed.

19. What's this crap about Keith getting Abrams fired anyway?
I'm sure that charge and this homoerotic nickname they've made up for Keith (bathtub boy) because they all secretly fantasize about seeing him all wet and soapy must be the results of a bunch of gossip on a lot of these wingnut sites that sane people don't frequent.

21. This is all they have to talk about?
Get a shovel yourselves, guys!

I don't understand how anybody can listen to talk radio. It's like a one-liner streeeetched out to 3 hours. Even Randi does this sometimes. But she's usually telling the truth and talking about something important. This RW stuff is all about "ME ME ME"! I even turn Rachel off when the call-ins start... tho' what I've heard beats Rush any day.
