    OTR Olbermann: No Citizen Journalists In MySpace!

    "Hold Out Keith" from Page Six of the New York Post reports that perpetually on the rag Keith Olbermann, true to his courageous principles, is refusing to participate in MSNBC's citizens journalist program for the two conventions in which several citizen journalists will be chosen to cover the convention under the aegis of the MSNBC shows. 

    No doubt, Mr. Olbermann could be easily threatened by such an arrangement to his faux 21st century Edward R. Murrow gig combined with self-delighted recitations of tedious minutiae a la Cliff Claven - but Cliff was more fascinating.  Olbermann apparently doesn't want to truck with MySpace which is owned by New Corp's Rupert Murdoch - and who also owns Fox News.

    What an act of political and journalistic courage!
