Olbermann Rips Glenn Beck as “Worst Person” Again

I found this story on Huffington Post this morning and had to share.

On MSNBC’s “Countdown” last night, Keith Olbermann awarded Carly Firorina the bronze medal for stating at a breakfast recently that she was opposed to bank bailouts, conveniently leaving out that last year she supported the mother of all bank bailouts when the financial system was perched on the edge of a cliff.

Bill O’Reilly brought home the silver for implausibly insisting that he and his ambush producer Jesse Waters were responsible for Bill Moyers retiring from PBS.

The winner of the gold medal was another Fox News host: Glenn Beck. On his radio show Beck crudely called Senator Mary Landrieu a prostitute for her work obtaining money in the health care bill to help pay for coverage of poor citizens of Louisiana. He then doubled down later on his television show, saying “So we know you’re hookin’, but you’re just not cheap.”
