ABOUT THE NEWS HOLE

It's the new award-winning blog* from the cast and crew of the award-winning television news hour** "Countdown with Keith Olbermann."

We heard about this whole "blogosphere" business from Tom DeLay, and came to the immediate realization that we too, "needed to become involved" in it.

So here it is. Covering the big news, the small news, medium-sized and irregular, The News Hole strives to bring everything you love or hate about Countdown to the internets.

Your feedback and hate mail is encouraged.

Worst Person in the World

Posted: Wednesday, February 21, 2007 8:06 PM by Countdown

The bronze, to Bill Orally and Oprah Winfrey.

What is she doing, inviting him on a show about protecting children against predators, and not asking him why he said Shawn Hornbeck had "fun" during his abduction and constant sexual abuse?

And never mentioning that after those remarks, the Center for Missing And Exploited Children dropped him as Keynote speaker at its Florida fund-raiser next month?

As to Billo... how can he keep portraying himself as an advocate for abused children, while he's defending their abductors?

Our silver medalist tonight, Leslie Brown, spokeswoman for the National Mountaineering Group "Access Fund"

Protesting a plan to require anybody who intends to climb past 10-thousand feet on Mount Hood in Oregun in the winter, to carry an electronic locator device.

She says it'll make climbers lazy, and more likely to not try to save themselves, but wait for others to save them.

This after the locators helped rescuers find three lost climbers on Mount Hood.

But the winners: Doctors Spasoje Radulovitch, and Dragan Vukanich, of Belgrad in Serbia.

Dr. Radulovitch was busy treating a patient, when Dr. Vukanich came in and started yelling at him, then pulled his ear and slapped him. Dr. Radulovitch responded by socking Dr. Vukanich, and the two tumbled to the floor.

The patient Dr. Radulovitch was treating did not see any of this, because, of course, this was in the Operating Room, where Dr. Radulovitch was taking out the man's appendix.

Stay tuned for this plot line on the next Grey's Anatomy.

here is a copy of a recently sent email to Mr Orally "Bill'O, You are very entertaining, PLEASE continue. Who knows....you may eventually make it to the "Worst Person Hall of Fame"!!! Come on, you must be getting desperate to crop Edwards' statement on terror. And how come your phrase 'secular progressive' is not in anyone else's vocabulary. To continue, I will do my best to cheer you on in the worst person in the world competition. Sincerely, Taum in Truckee
Why wasn't Colter shill Chris Matthews mentioned?  Matthews continued presence on MSNBC shames both Olbermann and MSNBC.
