Keith Olbermann, today, is my shouty pundit boyfriend.

Not bad for the guy from SportsCenter. I doubt Craig Kilborn could come up with that level of literate vitriol.

I haven't actually watched the video -- the words got me riled up enough.

My perception of Keith Olbermann begins and ends with his appearances on the pre-Jon Stewart version of the Daily Show, where I thought he was absolutely adorable. I am pretty much morally opposed to the cable news networks, and since we don't have cable I am not forced to watch them. So I occasionally drool over pictures of Anderson Cooper and pump my fist for Olbermann. Anything beyond that, I abstain.

Poor Craig Kilborn. Not as funny as Jon Stewart. Not as smart as Keith Olbermann. He just ends up being the afterthought to people who still have jobs now.

That said, I like Keith Olbermann a lot. Between him and Jim Kramer (who's great TV, but not so great for investment advice), the NBC cable channels are definitely some of my favorite TV right now.

Agreeingly,
Hyoun

Craig Kilborn is not only the poor man's Keith Olbermann and the poor man's Jon Stewart, he's also the poor man's Josh Homme. And Josh Homme can pull off a ducktail way better than Craiggers. Although the jury's out on who is better at giving head to a cell phone...
