Gawker/Mancow/Olbermann: Round 2…
Gawker’s John Cook responds to tonight’s Countdown…
After repeatedly claiming—falsely—that Gawker was alleging some kind of conspiracy when all we are alleging is that a notorious radio faker faked another thing, Olbermann and Muller got into some really heavy stuff, speculating that Gawker is doing Dick Cheney’s dirty work. “Telling the truth, even accidentally even in a small way, can be very dangerous stuff,” Olbermann said.
“There’s dark forces behind this,” Muller said. “I really believe this.”
Jesus.
Also, Muller compared himself to Mike Tyson’s dead daughter and said this was all predicted in Revelations. Seriously. He signed off by admitting that he “plays pranks all the time—that’s the irony here.”
This is the star that Olbermann decided to hitch his wagon to tonight. Bad move.
Um, if Cook is going to summarize tonight’s show he could at least summarize it correctly. Mancow did cite Revelations but he was referring to him and Olbermann being on the same side and appearing on Countdown. It had nothing to do with Tyson’s deceased daughter…

““There’s dark forces behind this,” Muller said”
If my ridiculous theory holds up, he could be talking about himself. Mancow, the evil genius. Where’s that Karl Rove emoticon when you need it!

They keep calling Mancow a Conservative..but that can’t be true because KO never lets Conservatives on his show..so that should be the first clue that this guy is a phony.

He’s a phony that unfortunately did a good job pulling the wool over the eyes of various FNC shows when he was a frequent guest.

And I got duped, too. Worst yet, before re-appearing on “Countdown” last night, he went to Andrew Breitbart’s Big Hollywood blog to defend himself.
