1. He's right about the news media, especially broadcast news

I suppose I'm an old radical, I did a radical thing. I turned those assholes off. I'm depriving their advertisers of a target. I'm not memorizing the catch phrases of the day to spout at other people, thinking I look clever. I'm costing them money. I'm costing their parent company support. To hell with the lot of them.

Print media are easier, it's much easier to read a few sentences in and realize the article is biased and move on instead of getting up from dinner to grab the remote and switch stations. TV requires passivity. Print media require more active engagement.

Olberman is right abut one thing: TFG has got to be confined away from his cult. While the ones capable of organizing mass violence are bunged up for the next few years, there are a lot of lone crazies out there who think TFG is giving them direct orders..

It's coming. We all know that.
