Keith Olbermann
Chris Matthews
Michael Savage
Glenn Beck
Bill O'Reilly
Other - please explain.

This question came about because of a post in another thread, and it got me thinking.
So, who do you think is the worst?

I don't know much about some of them, so I'll pick the one that I have made fun of the most: Keith Olbermann.

I vote for Ed "Sergeant" Schultz....because he absolutely "knows nothing". LOL

I would have voted for Musburger....but he's such a douche that he doesn't even qualify for a political thread.

Beck is an obvious answer as he is just so over the top and does not properly frame things.
But, I'd say it is Matthews and Schultz. Both are so annoying and just blindly follow the Progressive agenda.

All are bad though.

Olbermann, no question. How can you get fired from a Sunday Night Football gig? Because you are Keith Olbermann. People that want to watch the Steelers, Browns, Bengals etc. don't want to hear your voice because it is that offensive.

Hey Keith, worst person in the world - it is YOU!

Center - Does OC limit the number of choices you could list? I would have thought Rush and Hannity as a couple on the right and Katie Couric and Joyless Behar from the left. I could have voted for Joyless instead of Ed...she's that inane.

I think the limit said 10 choices. But, I don't listen to talk radio, other than my local morning show, so I really don't know who all is where. That is why I listed an "other" option; cause I'm sure others know alot more about it than I do. I don't even really watch cable news, although I have a few times, just to see things for myself. Most of my info about these people have been links I've gotten in emails, or have been posted here.
Also, by not listing all those other people, it makes for better discussion - because people actually have to take the time to list their own nominee, instead of just clicking by a name lol

Keith O is hands down the worst.

Dieken is a horrible "radio" guy. Great football knowledge but a terrible announcer on the air.

Taking everything into consideration...Olbermann. He has sucked at everything he has done. And closely followed by Savage. The rest of the folks on the list are giant douches, yes, but i honestly feel like Savage and Olbermann are bad human beings. Don't really think that about the rest of them, just don't like 'em.

Yeah but Diek hung tough with the Brownies even after Douche Modell kicked us all in the gonads.

The worst announcer wouldn't even make it to the radio or TV to by heard. Those above guys are far from the worst.

Savage is not as well known as the others, but he's by far the worst. It really isn't even close.

Ok, so for about the past hour or hour1/2, I've been making myself listen and pay attention to a Glenn Beck radio show. This man has got himself seriously spooked. I'm about to stop listening to it because I just can't take much more.

My question(s) is this:
- is he misconstruing facts on accident/purpose?
- is it his message or strictly his delivery that is making me want to go drink heavily?

Of the list, Olberman, but I can't stand Rachel Maddow even worse than him.

Beck is the worst of the right hand side, but Olberman and Maddow are far worse than him (and its sad, because even as a conservative I can't watch Beck).

I think O'Reilly might be the best on the list. He's conservative but realistic and at times sides with the middle/left.

Voted for Olberman, but anyone on that list could qualify. All of those are alleged "opinion" people, so if they come off as weird or extreme, it doesn't bother me as much as someone who's supposed to be objective (news anchor, reporter, etc.) and yet you see Dem blue oozing out of their eyes, ears, and mouth.

As for Beck, as a conservative I appreciate some of the things he does, but I can't stand to listen to more than 15 minutes of his show. He has a habit of going into this creepy, hypnotic, almost whisper voice and gets way too doomsday, end-of-the-world, go-get-your-emergency-shelter-ready-and-hide-your-guns. Can't stand Savage either- I think he just wants to fight everyone.

All of the above. They are broadcasters only in the sense that their voices are amplified by microphones. What they have to say is meaningless drivel.
