br> Re: Philip Klein's Anatomy of a Correction : /p> p>Keith Olbermann is a buffoon. As a sportscaster, that was an asset. As a "journalist" he strikes me to be akin to the mischievous monkey in the '30s Laurel & Hardy and Three Stooges reels...without the charm or humor. Being able to avoid MSNBC on my cable is easy, but the boorish rascal shows up and drizzles his bilge on my afternoon sports radio in the car. br> -- Reid Bogie br> Waterbury, Connecticut /p>

Keith Olbermann makes Jayson Blair look honest and professional. Not surprising when one understands he's just a younger version of the unreliable Walter Cronkite and mendacious Dan Rather.

p>Understandably, Philip Klein is reluctant to edit Olbermann's show since it would take an army of knowledgeable editors to correct the errors spewed forth by the bespectacled extremist, but Klein's work on this issue was greatly appreciated by Americans who believe in the First Amendment and journalism as a profession and not merely a Democrat propaganda tool. br> -- Michael Tomlinson br> Jacksonville, North Carolina /p>
