He seems to think of himself as Ed Murrow also. Of course Murrow was not afraid to engage his opponents on television. Olbermann only invites people who agree with his viewpoint to be on his show. The goal seems to be to find out who can say "You're right Keith" the most in one television segment. Of course Howard Fineman is at a huge advantage because he's been saying "You're right Chris" for ten years now and phonetically it's an easy transition.
