In the few times I've seen Olbermann, he's shouted over every guest he disagrees with. maybe it's not as noticeable because he doesn't have people he disagrees with on as often.

No, Olberman does not shout over his guests. He aks questions and his guests answer. He rarely has Republican on, but I don't mind. A lot of the other shows do. Olberman gets worked up but he's talking directly to the camera. I forced myself to watch O'Reilly so I could have an honest opinion of him. O'Reilly is an a$$.

I think they are extremely similar, kas. My (liberal) boss and I were just discussing this Wednesday night, which is why I brought it. She thinks the reason that dislike each other so much is that they are both loud mouths who like to talk over other people and think they know it all.

MSNBC doesn't come in on my TV, lil. Even though it is supposed to. :irk: Does he have a similar interview style t O'Rielly? I really hate that talking over the interviewee thing so if Olbermann does that than I wouldn't like him.

I like Bill. He calls a spade a spade. He doesn't mince words, or let you spin a response. I could do without some of the yelling, but there are "pinheads" out there that need a good tongue lashing.

I've only seen clips online, since I don't watch cable news. Bill O'Reilly seems...what's the word...feistier? More prone to shouting? But yeah, they both have their moments.

Just out of curiosity, all of the people who hate O'Reilly so much, how do you feel about Olbermann? (For the record, I dislike them both.)

LOL at BO on "The View," he was great. I'm not a BO supporter, but I do support most of the things he said on the show. Yes, Joy has become a grumpy old woman. Yes, Barbara Walters did not engage John McCain like she did Obama. Finally, YES, "The View" is not a fair and balanced show. I tape it everyday, and am surprised at how biased it has become. I am an independent, who is undecided at the time.

Whoopi also missed the episode with the HSM chick who looks up to her so I think she was actually sick. I'm on fall break, I probably shouldn't watch too much of The View...:ponder:

People know before they go there (or at least they should know) that they will not be able to talk much.. you know who i will take any day though? Lil O' Reilly! http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/8d867fd8ef

I can't watch him interview people. I hate the way he interupts them and talks over them. I want to hear what the interviewee has to say.

to be always screaming and mad...i dont know..i think i'd be miserbale to be pissed off at so many people. Not saying that he was pissed off on The View..just in general.

Whoopi Was too afraid of O'Reilly to show up. She called in sick.

If Whoopi can't even keep it together well enough to SHOW UP to an O'Reilly appearance, I seriously doubt she would have been able to "put him in his place."

I really wish Whoopi would have been there to put him in his place...while I like Joy she it too much of a hot tempered comedian to rebuff O'Reily properly.
