Great Moments in Journalism

Journalism doesn't get any better than this. In his Worst Person in the World segment on Tuesday's "Countdown," the A-Mess NBC's Keith Olbermann went after Fox's Glenn Beck for a comment he made about Mullah Abdul Ghani Baradar on that morning's "Fox & Friends":

If I were in charge, we'd be interrogating him. And we'd interrogate him, and interrogate him, and interrogate him and then we'd shoot him in the head. ... Shoot him in the head before we all of a sudden release him into, what? Primary schools in New York City? What are we going to do with this guy?

Olbermann's answer? "Well, since it's worked with a lot of other people whose plans would destroy America, give him a show on Fox News"

Wow. Investigative journalism is dead. This is what the news and journalism has come to. How distasteful. In Keith's own words; "God forgive you."
