KO is one of the few "corporate" employed commentators who has the courage to speak out against the right and their contempt for all things that are good and just. He was one of the first mainstream commentators, after Phil Donahue, who slammed Bush and his cadre of war criminals, and he's always the first to attack the hypocrisy of the right-wing mouthpieces and their political pawns. I'm sorry that some of my fellow progressives are critical of him, claiming that he doesn't go far enough, works for GE, etc. He is doing all he can, given the restraints of mainstream media, to get our message across. I am forever grateful to Olbermann and Maddow for all they do for our cause.
Thanks, Keith, for all you do.

I forgot to thank Keith again here too for that hour broadcast. We need to encourage people whenever they stand up for us and show our support and appreciation.
The truth is we are all brothers and sisters. Even corporate titans are our brothers and sisters-- that is the truth! The truth can be accepted or denied. They are only human after all, running inhuman companies, fed by our sick "laws" for too long. We have helped create the present scenario as much as they have, by ignorance, or sensing we are helpless and lack power. If we demonize these humans as our scapegoats then we are not truly healing in a whole (holistic) way. We can make a new choice in the present for peace and social justice for all humans

"I'm sorry that some of my fellow progressives are critical of him, . . ."
The critical responses in this thread were posted by corporate dronea and not by Progressives.
