newsbusters.org — Keith Olbermann is furious at ABC's David Wright for "selectively editing" a clip from the Daily Show with John Stewart. Olbermann called for Wright to be fired for this horrendous slight against journalistic integrity, then proceeded to selectively edit the same segment.

Olberman is such a hypocrite it literally hurts to watch him. I honestly have to change the channel from time to time to relax from the onslaught of assh**ishness that emanates from his blatant double standard for how he treats those who he agrees with, and those he doesn't. I do this both out of anger, and pity for the man. The pity comes from the fact that I believe the man is a good guy, but is forced to be so incredibly biased on his show to capture the viewership of the young crowd who will consume nothing less than the idea that conservatives can do no right, and liberals no wrong. Don't get me wrong, I have bones to pick with every conservative pundit as well, but the hypocrisy of him calling them out for doing the same things he himself does just really pisses me off.

If you watch the whole segment he shows the edited version, than plays it in it's entirety. There is a big difference between KO and BO, Keith exposes the bulls**t from the rightwing, while Billdo preys on his listeners fear and ignorance,

Screw cable news. I'm a liberal but the less time you spend watching MSNBC in addition to FoxNews, the better. If you really want solid reporting and in depth analysis of meaningful issues read the New York Times, Washington Post, Boston Globe, The Guardian or the Independent.

You are right.Jon Stewart and the Daily Show are Satire.What is sad is that you probably get a more informative take on issues from them then from an actual news show.Fox did only show part of Jon Stewarts bit to make it look like he was denying Climate Change.I have seen them do that several times.

Yes, tell me about fear mongering of the right wing. Then let's talk about how if we don't stop global warming yesterday we will all be under 800 FT of water. Someone from the left made an entire movie about it, what was his name?
