Wonkette
Thank you to tipster “Terry” for sending us this picture of his teevee displaying the latest sophomoric hijinks from liberal MSNBC. It’s downright immoral the way they keep insulting Hillary Clinton like this.

Kent Brockman: “And the kitten frisked with that ball of yarn, all night long. In other news…”
I understand that bear did awful, unspeakable things in the woods.
I hear it is going to make out with Ralph Nader next and then frolic in the aftermath of another natural disaster.
But are my pick-i-nic baskets safe, MSNBC? ARE THEY?!
Well, the reporter had an assignment to “get after this bear market.”
IZ IN UR WOODS SCRACHIN MAH BUT
You can put lipstick on a bear’s butt…
Buttsex tag! Yay
I thought this was Palin’s analysis of the economy and resurgent Russia.
Butt I thought they did serious reporting?
I saw this live…it was Keith Olbermann making fun of the local So Cal coverage of this “event.” It was actually really funny.
TGY: someone should write a dissertation on lolcats.
That fucker wants to raise your taxes!
I prefer this to the 24/7 coverage of missing white women that used to be MSNBC.
The bear is MSNBC’s answer to Neil Cavuto.
BREAKING NEWS: Worker in office posts comment on Wonkette blog entry before refilling his water glass. DEVELOPING…
Later in the broadcast, they tackled the mega issue — If a tree falls in the forest and no one is there but our MSNBC camera….
Hey! I was just speaking of that bear! Olbermann got all excited when it scracthed its ass on a tree.
If a bear scratches his ass in the woods, will Sarah Palin shoot him?
Man, bears are all the rage on the nooze lately!
…bear on the loose; bear market! Coincidence, I think not?!
Those seemingly heroin addicted “constitution voters” are kinda starting to freak me out…
If a bear scratches his ass in the woods will Sarah Palin shoot him?
Anonymous Office Zombie: UPDATE: He scratched his butt in the illusion of privacy of his cubicle.
I’m sorry but that was hilarious. Listening to Keith Olbermann give deadpan updates on the bear througout his show was one of the funniest things I’ve seen in a while.
And no. I don’t get out much.
Did the bear get into a white Ford Bronco? Is it still on the highway?
Bears are the number one threat to this nation. They are godless, ursine killing machines.
Bearburgers anyone?
tunamelt: Yes, reports are now confirming a butt scratch, followed by another post to Wonkette. Sources speculate office worker now contemplating actually getting stuff done, but unlikely to follow up on that. Stay tuned for more updates to this important BREAKING COVERAGE.
In all fairness, MSNBC was showing the live feed from a California station and Olberman was commenting on how ridiculous it was that this was even considered newsworthy.
I loved watching this and, no, I’m not THAT Terry. The bear scratching his arse on the tree was funny.
Now we know the answer to the question:
“If a bear wipes his ass off on a tree, does anyone really care?”
Yes, MSNBC does.
I understand Sarah Palin can see bears from her house as well.
I knew Hillary was missing, but never suspected the bear (suit)…was that her on the waterfront in Galveston?
Can’t wait for the next McNutz youtube video claiming that if Obama is elected, large herds of flea bitten bears will roam the country eating American white babies and pooping in our yards.
You know, three hours of this would be so much more itneresting that Morning Joe and I think we would get a more balanced newscast for it.
It’s safer to talk about bears and asses then to talk about the epic failure of the McCain campaign. They are sensitive to Rick Davis’ feelings.
Undeterredbyreality: It’s how she’s supporting Barry’s campaign. She’s pulling the bear suit thing to undermine Nader.
Terry: I’m THAT Terry and yeah, it was spot on. Especially loved Olbermann’s commentary.
Judging from the market, that bear isn’t walking away just yet. He has a couple of helpless banks and brokerage firms to maul yet.
Something is disturbing about that image. Is it the old creepy antique “tube” teevee? I just can’t put my elitist finger on it. *shivers a little*
pattycake: I approve of this.
I don’t see Geraldo, is he in the trees?
Terry85:
OK Terry, repeat after me: I will use a video capture card from now own.
This obsession with Andrew Sullivan must stop.
Bears suck! Good thing Palin doesn’t want to keep their cousins in AK on the endangered animals list.
Success! The video of Olbermann reporting the bear chase!

“The bear went over the mountain. The bear went over the mountain. The bear went over the mountain. Reportedly, to see what he could see.”
Classic.
If you go down to the woods today
You’re sure of a big surprise.
If you go down to the woods today
You’d better go in disguise.
For ev’ry bear that ever there was
Will gather there for certain, because
Today’s the day the teddy bears scrub their assholes.
Ev’ry teddy bear who’s been good
Is sure of a treat today.
There’s lots of marvelous trees to scratch
And wonderful bark to rub.
Beneath the trees where nobody sees
They’ll hide and seek as long as they please
Cause that’s the way the teddy bears scrub their assholes.
freakishlystrong: This certainly is evidence of the Russian resurgance.
At least the poor thing didn’t get stuck in a ditch for years and years.
And still no pictures of me masturbating in the park! God DAMN it, MSNBC! What am I paying you for?!
Cogito Ergo Bibo: Is Olbermann a Wonketeer? ‘Cause he should be.
Did they blur out the butt scratching or did they show it in all it’s unfettered pornographic glory? Think of the children.

ReelectTilden: AND shitty bear markets!
You don’t know trenchant commentary until you’ve read Glenn Beck’s latest opus.
http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/09/17/beck.wallstreet/index.html
Ok, I know you won’t read it, so here’s the deal: Having trouble understanding the Dawn of the Hobos meltdown? It’s just like buying too many Tickle Me Elmos. Honest to fucking god.
How dare you judge that bear! He was in the woods for FIVE AND A HALF YEARS, ALAN!
Who is this guy Butt? And what do the damn bears have against him?
Strictly for the Tardcore: He’s an honorary. He’s not against us, so he must be with us.
Cogito Ergo Bibo: the bear could see the mountain from it’s asshole, the bear should be Secretary of the Interior!
ManchuCandidate: You are wonderful. My brain was heading there, but I stopped to scratch KO’s butt and got distracted.
PrairiePossum: The pooping would be disgusting. The rest not so much.
Strictly for the Tardcore: He lurks..he’s said…things that were awfully familiar…
freakishlystrong: It would make life in the White House a bit more exciting.
It’s like a freakin’ Country Bear Jamboroo up in here.
chitownlib: I saw this live…it was Keith Olbermann making fun of the local So Cal coverage of this “event.”
Say no more. Here in sunny SoCal our local “news anchors” have DDD breasts and/or faces filled with more plastic than a Lego factory. They’re not exactly known for their hard-hitting investigative journalism. Probably the only reason they focused on the bear is because the 3-hour-long high-speed highway car chase finally ended when the driver tried to roll out of his car like Starsky and Hutch and knocked himself out on a building shaped like a giant chili dog…
Next breaking news headline: Bear Shitting in Woods Is Seen From Outer Space. Kangaroo Rats Really Pissed Off.
at least it’s not the true crime / missing person / jailhouse documentary / kidnapped person stuff that fills the very large non-”news” portion of msnbc’s schedule.
Serolf Divad: Clearly a FAIL on my behalf. Although in my own defense, by the time I got my camera out I wouldn’t have been able to get more than a few seconds worth of video. So I think a picture was still the best option.
user-of-owls: How did that douchebag get a show?
So Wonkette is making fun of MSNBC for Olbermann’s making fun of KNBC. How very meta.
If I make fun of this post for the same sort of media myopia it’s assailing, would it create a black hole of snark in a way that the Large Hadron Collider failed to do? Or would it just be a trend, since trends come in threes?
@Them
That’s an excellent question. The answer is….err…umm…uhh…RON PAUL!!
“Painful piles” is an anagram of SARAH PALIN!
