First one would have to have been around to listen to Edward Murrow back in late 1930s and 40s. Not the TV Murrow, the old radio Murrow.
Olbermann has copied to a T the writing and verbal presentation of Murrow. Murrow became a "commodity", he had something to sell and MSM raised him to the peaks.
He became a Pied Piper, nightly bashing of Hitler, on and on and on. Oddly, the people never noticed he rarely ever mentioned Togo and Japan that attacked us. He was saying what people wanted to hear, what he was not saying spoke volumes. His adoration of the poor Russians was endless.
But he was bashing evil Hitler and MSM played it to the hilt.
All of this time he was employing known communists to work for him, unknown to the people that adored him.
Murrow went on to become the man that led MSM in their effort to destroy Joseph McCarthy.
What Olbermann is saying I agree 100 per cent, what he is NOT saying is where the snake oil comes in.
Anyone paying attention to politics knows full well that he is a "liberal" that being said he is saying stuff that one would of thought would be coming out of the mouth of a "conservative" the fact someone in MSM is actually saying it is a positive....we all were communist's once!
A few months later we invaded North Africa. North Africa??????
For the record Britain asked the US for help against Rummel North Africa was a blood bath for Americans not knowing how to fight desert warfare.....had Rummel not run out of supplies North Africans would be speaking German today...
Montgomery had already defeated Rommel in August at the second battle of El Alamein. We did not invade Africa until November. Long before Pearl Harbor FDR had agreed that Germany would be the priority, not Japan.
When MacArthur reached Australia he was shocked that there was nothing there for him. No American troops, as they were all being prepared for North Africa.

Australia nothing -- FDR never lifted a finger to resupply or support the tens of thousands of US troops (including National Guard units!) and Filipinos fighting under the US flag on Bataan and Corrigedor. The Allies were prepared to suffer casualties of 90 percent for convoys that supplied Murmansk and Malta, but our own men were hung out to dry with only empty promises.
