<snip>

Fox News Sunday host/"Worst Person in the World" Chris Wallace ripped Keith Olbermann on the nationally syndicated Mike Gallagher Show Friday. Hot Air has the audio.

"I used to think when he was on Sportscenter he was okay. He was in the toy department and he handled that pretty well," Wallace said, prompting an "Ouch" from Gallagher.

Then: "Have you ever heard him do his Edward R. Murrow impression? Here's a guy who has never covered a story in his life, whose idea of enterprise journalism is to use some call phrase when some guy scores a basket from a three point line... And to have the temerity to say good night and good luck, let me just say something. I met Edward R. Murrow. My father worked with Edward R. Murrow... And Keith Olbermann, you are no Edward R. Murrow."

1. Chris Wallace, you are no Mike Wallace.

:eyes:

[depakid]

6. I expect the Mike is pretty damned ashamed

of his lying manipulative son.

I wouldn't sit in the same room with that man.

[tsuki]

8. My first thought. n/t

[ShortnFiery]

15. Oh, you beat me to it!

Bless Mike Wallace for he must be so disappointed in the lack of morality of his son. :(

Mike Wallace could adopt me anytime. <tease>

I think he is an honorable American and also a first rate journalist. :thumbsup: :hug:

[ComerPerro]

18. sums it up exactly

[DCKit]

19. Me five

I am embarrassed to watch him work. He doesn't deserve to use the name.

[devilgrrl]

37. No doubt!

You got that right SA!!!

[133724]

65. rotflmao

[City Lights]

68. ...

:thumbsup:

[Cleita]

2. Something about the pot calling the kettle black?n/t

[Lex]

3. Chris Wallace is an embarassment to his father and to journalism

in general.

Working at Fox Noise proves it, if nothing else.

[Iwasthere]

33. His father should be ashamed

[SharonRB]

4. Oh, no he di-n't -- I beg to differ

KO is the closest thing to Murrow we've got. I guess Wallace has never heard one of his special comments.

[Clark2008]

28. Chris Wallace is a putz.

Don't worry about it.

KO keeps getting viewers, while Faux either leave out of disgust, or, given their demographics, dies.

[Daphne08]

53. Yes, he is. I can say that because I remember Murrow. n/t

[acmavm]

5. Someone's petty jealousy is showing

[yardwork]

45. That's it. Petty jealousy.

[Debi]

7. Did FAUX write that for Wallace? He could not have come up with that on his own. n/t

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

48. Um Lloyd Bentsen wrote it for him.

[Debi]

76. I know Lloyd Bentsen said it first (but thanks for the link all the same)

I just meant that Wallace couldn't have thought the repeat of the line all by himself.

Guess I should have made my post clearer.

:hi:

[solara]

9. Chris Wallace.. you are no journalist..

:kick:


INVESTIGATE IMPEACH INDICT INCARCERATE :patriot:

[liberal N proud]

10. Chris Wallace: You are no journalist

In fact you are a disgrace to the human race.

[Patsy Stone]

11. This came right from a Billo memo didn't it?

To all FOX employees: I hate Keith Olbermann. Please bad mouth him whenever possible. That is all.

[BOSSHOG]

12. My Dick's bigger then Yours

chris is incredibly pitiful. I think we might now know why Mike suffered with depression.

[Mabus]

16. Nailed that on the head!

:thumbsup:

[Skip Intro]

57. ouch!

[Mabus]

13. Chris Wallace is to Mike Wallace what W is to Poppy

:rofl:

[checks-n-balances]

73. My thoughts exactly! eom

[Hardrada]

14. Chris Wallace, you are Katie Couric!

[maddezmom]

23. perfect

:thumbsup:

[ShortnFiery]

24. ... whaat?

:rofl: Chris Walace's peers are Couric, Gibson, Hannity, O'reilly, Carlson (both of them!), Rush, Bortz, Weiner, Kurtz, Beck, Grace, Van Sustren, Rita Cosby, etc. ... all are merely "media whores" masquerading as journalists. Hell, he ain't even photogenic like ole dried out Katie Couric. That is, glancing at her doesn't make me wish to blow chow ... exactly how I feel when I see him. :P

[Cha]

30. The perfect slam for a

wannabe reporter.

[Horse with no Name]

17. As opposed to your icon O'Lielley

who had the hefty title of entertainment reporter?
Hey at least sportscasters deal with facts.

[Nite Owl]

20. Coming from someone

that works for Fox 'News'? The whole network he works for is anti-journalism, when is the last time Fox broke a story that wasn't about someone missing? Their whole business model is based on lying for a profit.

[Solly Mack]

21. We call that being pea green with envy

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

22. Let's be totally honest here, if Chris Wallace wasn't Mike Wallace's

son, would he have even got his gig at Faux? The head ninny (Roger Ailes) over at Faux is just using Chris Wallace.

Face it Chris, if your father wasn't Mike Wallace of CBS News you'd probably end up reading the news at some minute station in "Bumf*ck, Idaho or some place similar. Also I would imagine that everytime you start spewing the Reich Wing talking points on Faux, Ed Murrow literally spins in his grave....

What a tool and a total fool Chris Wallace is....

[flakey_foont]

25. Chris Wallace,,,you are a douchebag

[ginnyinWI]

26. this will only increase KO's ratings

Keep right on talkin' Chris.

[Gabi Hayes]

27. can't believe nobody's said this yet:

what will Olbermann have to say in response

this will be FUN!

and it only helps KO's ratings

[Cha]

31. Yes, indeedy!

.."and it only helps KO's ratings"

[Cha]

29. HOw the Fook

would that sniveling, fascist spouting propogandist know?

Edward R. Morrow is long gone but our generation is actually blessed with a newshound named Keith Olbermann.

Go sniff your father's chair, chrissy.

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

32. Edward R. Murrow would have defecated on Chris Wallace's head

in prime time, while casually puffing on his trademark cigarette.

If Chris Wallace had worked during Murrow's time, he would have been among the most rabid defenders of Joseph McCarthy, along with the rest of the Fox News Fascists.

[Iwasthere]

34. Chris Wallace blew it there

You don't want to start something with KO. CW will be blown outa the water.

[swimmernsecretsea]

74. Since Edward R. Murrow isn't around any longer, I volunteer.

...where are those bran muffins...

[Malikshah]

35. Looks like Chris wants some Keith-love -- He's all upset that

Keith spreads his special love all over Bill O'Reilly.

I can see Chris now, standing in the corner of the gym pouting

"But...but, I'm the prettiest at the dance!" "D'ya think Keith knows I stuff"

Poor Keith-- he's got two Faux groupies now...:)

[RevCheesehead]

36. No, Chris, you don't get a pony now.

You probably won't even make WPITW. Keith couldn't be bothered with you. He's busy covering REAL news.

Oh, and where's YOUR estrogen brigade? Hmmm? :rofl:

[troubleinwinter]

62. "Oh, and where's YOUR estrogen brigade? Hmmm?"

Hahahahahahahahaaaaaa!!!!!! You win!!! :rofl: :toast: :rofl:

[Berry Cool]

69. Here's the Chris Wallace Estrogen Brigade

OK, so it's supplemental estrogen, but hey.

[RevCheesehead]

72. Horse piss doesn't count.

:P

[peace13]

38. Chris let the numbers speak for themselves.

I think KO has a growing audience. How about you?

[dae]

39. Chris Who???

:rofl:the little pipsqueek!

[proud2BlibKansan]

40. Chris Wallace, you are no journalist

[mod mom]

41. The waterboy for the bu$h administration said what? Who cares!

[in_cog_ni_to]

42. WOW! I bet KO feels SO insulted!

:eyes: NOT! THAT coming from a WH shill?:rofl::rofl: At least KO has INTEGRITY.

[sakabatou]

43. Chris, you father would be ashamed of what you

-_-

[Catherine Vincent]

44. He's just ticked that Big dog didn't yell at Keith.

lol.

[Johonny]

46. Err

Who is Chris Wallace? Don't you have to be someone in the industry for your opinion to matter. In this case I'm willing to bet more Americans know who Keith is than know who Wallace is. Me I couldn't pick Wallace out of a crowd, Keith I've know for years both at news and sports broadcasting.

[ncteechur]

47. Chris Wallace, you are no homosapien!

[Richard Steele]

49. Chris Wallace: Jealous, or envious? You make the call! nm

[Cabcere]

50. Oh, the irony

of a Faux "News" personality calling out anyone else for their perceived lacking skills in "journalism." :eyes: Do those Fox people even know what journalism MEANS? Did any of them go to j-school? :shrug: Idiots.

[ends_dont_justify]

51. Funny

I'm sure enough people don't know who the hell he is to even hear that comment. Who's running the toy department?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

52. So what did Keith WPITW him for this time?

[tandot]

54. coming from a guy working at a fake news channel? How hilarious.

:rofl:

[mmonk]

55. And Chris, you're no journalist.

[Skip Intro]

56. I LOVE the fact he grates the faux-bots so much. They can't stand him.

They are beyond irrated with him. KO keeps them up at night.

And I LOVE it.

[Cabcere]

71. LOL, "faux-bots" - I love it!

:rofl:

[Roland99]

58. From a guy whose wife kissed Bush ass working on his campaign and then he...

proceeded to give Bush a virtual bj in an interview?



Kee-RIST!!!

:banghead:

[SemperEadem]

59. Wallace is just jealous that his show doesn't have the draw that KO's has

Consider the source.... fuxnoise. 'Nuff said.

[malaise]

60. Tell Chris

jealousy will get him nowhere. KO is in an league of his own.

[wordpix]

61. ChrisW, ever hear of professional growth? KO went from sportscaster to

political interviewer and commentator extraordinaire with a huge fan base and growing ratings.

How about you, Chris? Falling ratings and 0 fan base except bushies who swallow Faux's lies hook, line and sinker. :puke: Get a life.

[RandomKoolzip]

63. Chris Wallace, you are no Lloyd Bentsen.

[alphafemale]

75. Ka-Ching!

Thank-you. :patriot:

[Gidney N Cloyd]

64. Anyone from Faux who so much as invokes the name "Murrow" should burst into flames like they >

touched holy water.

[C_U_L8R]

66. Keith is OUR Edward R Murrow

because we (the viewers) decided he is.
Sorry Wallace... you don't get to decide for us.

[bridgit]

67. hahahahaha, Chris Wallace is no Mike Wallace...

:rofl:

[tex-wyo-dem]

70. bwahahaha!...

Ah, Chrissy, that's cute. Too bad you're a pathetic, fake news, smirky, knucklehead wannabe journalist pushing fascist agendas on your McPravda noise channel.

Now, go away before Bill Clinton hands you your ass again...or KO for that matter.

What an idiot.
