No, nobody's accusing Barack Obama of anything untoward here. But it does seem that MSNBCers Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann are showing signs of puppy love. But don't take it from TCG.
Bill Maher, of course, is not commonly thought of as conservative, or anti-liberal. And yet as Newsbusters' always-on-the-spot Brent Baker records, Matthews and Olbermann are getting more than a little carried away. Here's Maher:
The media in general, and MSNBC in particular, are so far into the tank for Barack Obama that even the far-left Bill Maher, on his HBO show Friday night, recognized “there is a problem...with the media gushing over him too much.” Specifically, though he didn't name co-anchors Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann, Maher pointed to MSNBC's coverage following Obama's acceptance speech: “The coverage after, that I was watching, from MSNBC, I mean these guys were ready to have sex with him.”
