Listen to this deranged Keith Olbermann rant from Dec. 12, 2016 in which he proclaims that Russia has literally toppled the US Government by way of its traitorous puppet Trump, and understand that a huge portion of the Dem base still believes exactly thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAFxPXGDH4E …

What's wild is that he acted like he was channeling Edward R Murrow during the Bush years with his "special comments" then he acts even more unhinged then Joe McCarthy ever did. Completely bonkers. He acted like Alex Jones but with even less the self-awareness.

Then again, no one took him seriously, and half his viewership was hate watching. Pretty harmless, really. The NYT was far more dangerous. They normalized the story. Keith didn’t push the needle at all. He’s pathetic on its face.

I don't think his point was about Olberman's reach and influence, but about a formerly-rational progressive voice that went off the deep end because Trump was elected president.

Maddow owes her whole style and even cadence to Oberman

Yes! As I recall it was Olbermann who had Rachel on his show. I think she was a frequent guest until they gave her her own show. His audience liked her so we were happy for her. What a long strange trip it's been!

Kinda like what Alex Jones became after 2005 or so? Before: fringe, yes - but sane and even correct and informative on many stories. After: totally out of his GD mind, mislead and dead wrong. What to do with these weird goings off the rail?

Have you considered that it's not madness? That Olbermann knew exactly what he was doing? Politics is war by other means, and these people are playing for keeps. If you think they're above intentionally lying to gin up support for their cause, you have another think coming.

I was this way with Chris Matthews. I find myself now doubting my judgement in the 90s. Was he always this way and I didn't see it?

Yes he was

The descent of centrist 'elites' mirrors that of the right wing elite. Both are fueled by the very real fear that "they" will no longer be in power/control. And it's happening. Thank goodness.

I’ve said the same. Hero during Bush turned to madman during Trump.
