911 Report (Keith Olbermann) Sat. Jan 27th, 07
My friend Tim turned me onto this video last night. It’s brilliantly intense. Olbermann’s use of rhetoric (the art of persuasion) is one to be studied. His boldness is humbling. And I’m shocked that he got away with it. It’s so scathing I fear for the man’s life.

The cynic in me says, “Well, you’re not surprised, are you?” but that doesn’t bring me any satisfaction or do one bit of good.
