Here's an amusing clip from Keith Olbermann's MSNBC show (scroll down 'til you find it) from our friends at Awful Announcing via our friends at The Big Lead via our friends at Mike Francesa.com.
The part that has attracted most of the attention nationally is Olbermann's shot at Stephen A. Smith, but what caught WatchDog's eye was the fact Newsday was one of the other two media entities Bill O'Reilly noted for having treated him fairly in the wake of the recent Sylvia's restaurant controversy.
Then . . . Olbermann had a long chat about O'Reilly with none other than Marvin Kitman, the venerable former Newsday TV critic who along with Stan Isaacs was an inspiration when WatchDog was a pup in the 1970s.
That was kind of cool.

Isaacs and Kitman where doing it for Newsday since Fox was DuMont and Rupert Murdoch was down under.
Kitman was hilarious; even moreso when he was on the old WNEW-TV.
Isaacs stole the Brooklyn Dodgers 1955 World Series pennant, so goes the legend. That makes him #1 in my book.
Kitman should stay retired. Olberman dragging him out like hes an expert?
Kitman thinks a blog is something to eat.
