1. Here's a summary for those who don't like to click through

without more info (like me).

Bill O'Reilly's favorite newspaper, The New York Times, reported, 8/20/07, that Keith Olbermann's Countdown will get a trial run on NBC this Sunday. Senior Vice President of NBC, Phil Griffin praised Olbermann with this comment.

"Countdown’ is rocketing right now over at MSNBC — its ratings are going through the roof."

That would be enough to make BOR's head explode but then Griffin added this comment.

“The world has changed, and I think people have come in line with the smart, focused approach he has on the show.”

Glad KO is getting wider exposure. I have a feeling he'll catch on like wildfire with new viewers.
Bonus: Billo Really's head explodes :evilgrin:

are going to write, bitch & complain to get that "liberal" Olbermann off a major network, and if we don't let NBC know much we enjoy Keith Olbermann because NBC will listen to the fucking repugs!
