News We Can Use

MSNBC news anchor, Keith Olbermann, has been taking it to George Bush and his administration in the last two weeks leading up to this 9-minute 9/11 speech from ground zero. Olbermann has apparently changed the format of his show, Countdown, from what was once zany and light news stories to what is now sobering, meaningful political commentary. Olbermann, in this special comment, articulates something that has needed to be said for a while now about the state of fear-mongering and partisanship in America. In a media climate in which it has become okay for O'Reilly and others to rant in defense of the Bush agenda, respect to Keith for using his platform to define the other side.
