He returned 20 times, and never told the truth. Reporting the Sri Lanka sunami,2004, did he report that all of the fishermen were driven out so that Big private hoteliers could take over their shorline homes for Resorts. Did he tell the truth which most news experts knew that the reasons for the Iraqi War were a lie. in 2007-2008 he is reported Planet in Peril a Documentary which is partially true -coflict between high population and natural resources- could be a pitch for globalization(?). Big Corporations pay for these shows so they have to be bent for their requirements regardless of the truth.

But neither seems afraid to talk - or listen - to anyone who might disagree with him. And both can be passionate, but not to the extent that they're blinded by their feelings. And both, especially Olbermann, are fiercely intelligent. And I hate to say it, since I too decry the Entertainment Tonight-ization of the news, but both are just fun to watch.
