Roger Ailes Derides MSNBC’s Lowest Rated Show

This from Breitbart:

Fox News Channel chairman and CEO Roger Ailes responded to Keith Olbermann’s latest critical volley against Bill O’Reilly on Monday, saying the MSNBC host’s behavior "is over the line."

Ailes, appearing Monday at the summer meeting of the Television Critics Association, was referring to a weekend incident at the gathering in which Olbermann whipped out a mask of O’Reilly and gave a Nazi salute.

Ailes said Olbermann picks on Fox’s O’Reilly to boost his ratings.

"Clearly he has no viewers except those he gets when he attacks Fox News," Ailes said.

Of Saturday’s incident, Ailes said, "I really think that’s over the line."

During his "Countdown" show on MSNBC, Olbermann regularly tweaks O’Reilly. Olbermann has named O’Reilly his "Worst Person in the World" at least 15 times. The nightly "award" is Olbermann’s way of criticizing what he deems bad behavior.

MSNBC tries to acquire better ratings no matter how nefarious the attempts might be.

This is a midweek open post for July 25-26, 2006.

I have tried to fix the trackback problem on this blog…

Hoping that my work paid off trackbacks should be working now.
