It is always a pleasure to post an item concerning Keith Olbermann that has nothing to do with K.O. fucking one of his viewers. From the Orlando Sentinel’s Scott Maxwell (link swiped from Boing Boing)
Apparently Geraldo Rivera was visiting with 104.1 FM’s Monsters just before Christmas, when they asked him about the time he made international headline for disclosing too much information about troops in Iraq. Geraldo claimed the incident was blown out of proportion, largely by NBC — and specifically Keith Olbermann. Geraldo then began mumbling semi-audible names, seemingly meant to describe Olbermann: “midget … punk … slimeball.”
But then, with the Monsters helpful prodding, Geraldo went a step further, leaving no doubt about what he was saying. He called Olbermann a coward — specifically a “[female part of the anatomy] who wouldn’t walk across the street against the red light.”
He then said he was ready to fight him, saying: “I would make a pizza out of him.”
Oh, and before leaving the topic, Geraldo offered an example of a TV talker who’s a “real man” … that would apparently be Montel Williams.
Another testament to the Dan Patrick radio show’s ratings, K.O.(ck) and Dan discussed this a few days ago. Olbermann said he could take Geraldo, then mentioned something about how popular Geraldo was when he was a kid.
whoops. You know, I do try to listen to the Patrick/Olbermann pairing but those Best Show On WFMU archives aren’t gonna play themselves.
Didn’t Geraldo get his vein clogged mush clubbed by the lesser Stallone during a Ch-9 Howard Stern spectacular?
P-Touch rules…Sirius-Touch sux!
Sober up, Repoz.
