MSNBC's Tucker Carlson not impressed by Olbermann.
Quote:
MSNBC's Tucker Carlson spoke today about his network's much-debated decision to have Keith Olbermann anchor election coverage, during a breakfast panel sponsored by Politico, the Pioneer Press and Yahoo.
Carlson said that "the traditional model" was to have an anchor that did not inject his or her personal politics into the newscast. Even if pretending, Carlson said, the anchor "does all he can to preserve the conceit or illusion that he has no politics."
"I’m not going to attack Keith Olbermann," Carlson said when pressed further. "I profoundly disapprove and am troubled by the model, on any channel, that lacks a neutral anchor or someone who poses as a neutral anchor."

Hopefully this type of commentary about MSNBC's coverage by various insiders will continue until Olbermann is fired.
