Tonight, Keith Olbermann had a special comment about the Hillary Clinton campaign. Personally, I really don't like Hillary Clinton, but what moves me the most about this comment is that Keith is not motivated by a dislike for the Senator. He is motivated by reaching out to her, and trying to help. His most recent special comment is an impassioned plea to the Senator to do a good thing, and utterly disavow Geraldine Ferraro and her blatant, unabashed racism. This is a link to a transcript of the comment. The transcript is good for the content of the comment, but god, you have to hear him, hear how much he actually cares. I respect Keith Olbermann more than almost any other newsman out there, with the possible exception of Tom Brokaw. And that says a lot. To appropriate a term from Mr. Olbermann, who, in turn, obtained it from Edward R. Murrow...
Good night, and good luck.
