Our New Favorite TV Rap Critic: MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann



“Word To Your Mother.” Those are the parting words Keith Olbermann had for indie hop hop group The East Coast Avengers as he gave their song “Kill Bill O’Reilly” his “Worst” ranking on the August 20 edition of Countdown. Olbermann agreed with the group that O’Reilly could use a facelift, but drew the line at threatening to kill him “Even in the hyperbole of the moment.”

We hope O’Reilly appreciates that at least someone in the media is willing to stick up for him. The single, which was released September 2, has already been banned from MySpace. Newscorp., the networking site’s owner is also the parent company of Fox News. In the meantime, we’re waiting for Bill O’Reilly to post a YouTube response to the Avenger’s full video.
