Keith Olbermann tweets that he will soon tweet. Will he tweet about Glenn Beck's taunt?

Keith-OlbermannImage Credit: Mark J. Terrill/AP ImagesSet your clock’s alarms for 8 p.m. ET tonight, Olbermaniacs. At that precise time, your fearless leader will tweet … something monumental. I know this because Olbermann pre-tweeted that tweet with another tweet: “At exactly 8 Eastern tonight I will issue my first tweet. Well, other than THIS one :) .”

What will he say — in 140 characters or less? Will he clarify his reasons for leaving MSNBC? Will he discuss his future? Will he respond to Glenn Beck, who today called his rival “the biggest pain in the a– in the world.” Who knows? Can you feel the excitement building? I’m so wired, that this PopWatch post is really just to announce my 8:01 p.m. post-Olbermann-tweet PopWatch post.

    He should tweet: “I am a douche”

    • Anonymoose

      That would be an insult to douches everywhere.

    • LOL

      GOP fears Olbermann.

      • DogBoy

        Unless someone in the GOP subscribes to his soon-to-be launched, self-righteous, annoyingly arrogant, look-at-me being all confrontational, ultra-lib, ultra-glib mega-douchey BLOG.. no one will ever hear from him again.

      • James Galard

        “Fear” and “loathing” are occasionally separate and wholly unrelated concepts.

    • Barb

      Wow, for someone you think is irrelevant, there is alot of hatred coming out… do you all secretly have a hard on for Keith?

      • D

        And look at the anti gay rhetoric here…

    • kevin

      I’ll tweet it for ya “Dogboy is a douche”

      • DogBoy

        I can only aspire to the level of douchey-ness that Master Olbermann has acheived. He’s like a 10th Level black-belt of D-bags.

    • L

      You first.

  • Devin

    I hope you are being sarcasstic.

    • DogBoy

      Yeah. Just kidding. I meant “I am an arrogant mega-blowhard-douche”.

      • Bob

        DogBoy, are you off your meds again?

  • mr.smelly

    agreed dogboy. he doesnt even deliver news. he thinks he is funny but he is a douche. he is last in the ratings

    • Barb

      You are wrong about this, but as a GOP/ Glen idiot Beck supporter I would not expect you to let facts get in the way of your rant…

  • KENNY POWERS

    It’s amazing that liberal entertainment magazines like this constantly report on people like Olbermann and Maddow as if they were relevant. Check the ratings; nobody watches them.

    • makeredhappy

      They are much more relevant to communication than the likes of Blackboard Wizard Beck or Hannity or the rest on FOX….they are uneducation and offer up pure garbage as reasoning. And you all believe them!!! Get your info from sources other than the web, folks….READ…TAKE CLASSES….GET REAL INFORMATION!!!

      • KENNY POWERS

        Not saying that i’m a FOX News fan (far from it); I’m just saying for people who get no ratings and have no effect on anything, they sure get a lot of undeserved press.

      • D

        *uneducated

        Irony noted.

      • smokindog

        “…they are uneducation”? Folks like you take the oxy out of oxymoron.

      • DogBoy

        You don’t have to love Beck or Hannity to think that Olbermann is a douche. His supreme douchey-ness transcends typical left/right ideological arguments.

    • Bob

      Stupid much???

    • Barb

      See above response. Just cuz you wish he were last doesn’t make it so.

  • mr.smelly

    fox gives a damn about what is going on in america. they dont kiss ass

    • makeredhappy

      The are ignorant and promote mental lameness with their outright erroneous information!!! Try reading, checking up on them, you’ll soon find out they are full of chalk!

      • LOL

        Mr. Smelly fears truth.

    • jmo

      Clarification: Fox gives a darn about what is going on in *rich* America.

      • D

        Funny when most of the millionaires are democrats…

      • iger

        D, you couldn’t be more wrong

      • D

        If you look at the forbes list of richest people, you will see that in the top 10, 8 are liberal democrats, and 2 are the koch brothers who own the largest oil refinery.
        If you look at the top 20 richest people, 17 are liberal democrats.

        Sorry iger please do try again.

    • Leila

      They don’t kiss ass? Are you kidding me? Right, and the devil is not out to hurt anybody.

      • D

        This would make sense if there was such a thing as a devil. Unfortunately your christian myth is a fabrication by the rich to keep you poor.

  • BILLY ROB

    KEITH IS A DOUCHE.. ADIOS TO HIM

  • BILLY ROB

    HIS PHOTO LOOKS LIKE HE IS SQUEZZING OUT A LOG…

    • James Galard

      No, I think he’s in a dark place, squinting out at the brilliance of his critics.

  • Paul

    I hope he ends up jobless and homeless. He’s the biggest hater on TV.

  • ML

    I like Keith O at least he told the truth.
    Fox doesn’t neither does Beck.

    • D

      doesn’t neither… see the highly educated liberals at work.

      • Bob

        D, you should remove the stick from your ass before posting.

      • D

        Aww Bob… did I hurt the poor little liberals feelings? Go hug mommy it will make you feel all better and maybe a little warm in your special place…

      • Barb

        D, really, do you have a hard on for Keith?

      • D

        Oh wow I didn’t think a lib would stoop to calling me gay… how wonderfully tolerant.

  • Ricko

    Fox News is 99% craptology. MSNBC is just a Mirror of craptology. At least K.O was kinda funny sometimes. Who is funny on Fox thats trying to be..

    • D

      “Who is funny on Fox thats trying to be..”

      Is that a question? Questions usually end with a question mark.

    • DogBoy

      ..and on those occasions when he wasn’t being “funny” (lets see, the other 99% of the time)… he was being a self-righteous, arrogant pri©k (and a douche).

  • Ricko

    Sorry about the non question, OK no one is funny on Fox Mr. punctuation police.

  • mikey

    Keith and Beck are two sides of the same coin. A completely unwatchable, unbearable, and best ignored blowhard of a coin. Both are kings of finding a small nugget of fact, taking it completely out of context, and blowing it up to an insane conclusion that their unthinking followers embrace as the one Truth. Both deserve to be shipped to opposite sides of the same island where each can listen to their favorite sound all day long, that of their own voice.

    • LOL

      Mikey did not give his post much thought.

  • LOL

    GOP is overwhelmed by fear. Hilarious. See how they run…

    • D

      Ohhhh no! It’s sooooooo scary! Run conservatives run! His twelve viewers may be influenced by his ideas!!! Aghhh!

  • flamoon

    OH PLEASE…Nobody fears Keith O.
    He is full of himself along with a few other things. SEE YA

  • Harriett

    Hi Keith, I used to watch MSNBC just because of your program. I always admired your courage aginst injustice in politics. I wish you the best in your future endeavour.
