Ted Cox should toughen skin

Posted February 13, 2009 10:00 pm

I'm so surprised at the Daily Herald's Ted Cox taking exception to how Keith Olbermann portrayed his comments. Its amazing that, through his own words," 99 percent of you" according to Nielsen, (that means, you and I) do not watch Olbermann's show. While those numbers are debatable. It seems Mr. Cox himself must find interest in this show. What this really seems to amount to is thin skin. When Mr. Olbermann called our future Congressman from the 6th congressional district the worst person in the world, Mr. Cox wrote nothing. Our future Congressman Peter Roskam accused Tammy Duckworth of cutting and running in the 2006 race for the 6th District. Funny Huh? Even though Ms. Duckworth almost gave her life, and of course her legs for our country, Peter Roskam used the absolute worst way to portray her. That was not worth Mr. Cox covering Mr. Olbermann's " Worst Persons in the World " before. Maybe Mr. Cox should write into Fence Post. It might toughen his skin.
