Who said Keith Olbermann is fair and balanced to both sides? Um...no one did. Actually, I wrote in a previous post that he's very liberal-biased, and frequently is accused of liberal bias. Maybe you should try reading what people have actually said before you respond? 
Nope, didn't miss the Republican debate. Tivo-ed it and watched the whole thing. And, yeah, in my opinion, Chris Matthews is fair and balanced. |

Ha! Just like physical beauty, fairness and sensing balance is in the eyes and ears of the beholders, given the diversity of responses. Another vote for the first ammendment.

Good question - I'd have to put Bill O'Reilly at number one and Rush at number two!

I voted for Maher, but Stewart and Colbert are equals. Colbert's "The Word" is ingenious. I would watch for that segment alone. I like Maher better on RealTime than I did on Politically Incorrect (although I didn't watch PI regularly) Sometimes PI turned into a freeforall. Maybe, it's better with three guests instead of four. Maher now can say exactly what he thinks without fear of retribution. I think Stewart has a great interview style.
I have questioned on what side of the aisle Matthews resides. As a speech writer for Carter I assumed he was liberal. But, I've come to the conclusion he's not biased. His brother did run as a repub in Pennsylvania. KO definitely liberal, although I read somewhere he claims to be an independent. For a conservative, I think Joe Scarborough is pretty fair. He usually has Buchanan, Joan Walsh from Salon (my favorite onine mag) and a third more middle of the road guest.

Bill O'Reilly, hands down. No explanation necessary. (There IS a reason his show is the #1 show on cable TV in ANY time slot.)

Back Street Boys had more #1 singles and sold more albums than anyone during their peak. So that's not saying much. |

Mine is Keith Olbermann. I think he's extremely intelligent...the guy knows his stuff! He sticks to his convictions, and doesn't let anyone make him nervous...least of all Bill O'Reilly (whom I can't stand). He's also mastered the ability to be entertaining, while remaining serious and on-topic, without completely alienating his guests and viewers.
Plus, he's easy on the eyes... |
