Instead of responding to that, you picked a different comparison. Second, your comparison is at best an example of, "Well you guys do it too, so that makes it okay." No, it doesn't make it okay. Without even addressing whether Beck and Olberman are different, and granting for the sake of argument that they aren't, it still doesn't make what Beck does okay. Nor does it make they way Fox News handles him okay. So your two sentences were entirely stock conservative rhetorical playbook, with no response to the issue. Congratulations. -- Drew

Which makes box's comparison to Olberman hugely more relevant to the situation that the former links use of Jon Stewart, who is on Comedy Central along with Colbert. So while their analysis may be good, insightful, etc...they are clearly labeled. Less so with our good friend and former sportscaster Keith. I will choose a path that's clear. I will choose freewill.
