TV gone wrong: The idiot interviewer, the scary model

On MSNBC, Lawrence O’Donnell makes a fool of himself through obnoxiousness with guest Peter Schiff: Video: World’s worst TV interview

You know, if MS-NBC was an actual news organization, someone there would be embarrassed.

Here’s why:

Over in Sweden, an ad agency blew it,
TV viewers terrified by Swedish supermodel

The 30-second ad spot, set to the haunting tones of a Swedish folk song, depicts a close-up of a rather sullen and emaciated Fohlin standing in the snow, rain and sun. The clip ends with the tagline, “Apoliva – for Swedish conditions”.

Maybe we could send O’Donnell to Sweden.

I didn’t think the ad was so scary, but then I don’t have to live in a country that doesn’t get sunlight for months. You decide.

    She looks like an evil ghost. Not quite the imagery I’d want for my products.

    O’Donnell should be fired for that craziness. He is obviously not qualified to conduct interviews. He thinks this interview is his platform. What a jerk.

    Does anybody actually watch his show? He doesn’t seem to understand common courtesy.

    Noi bias there, just move along. The idiot has no clue and put words in Schiff’s mouth.

    This is nothing. Back during the 2004 campaign O’Donnell was a guest on MSNBC along with John O’Neill from the Swift Boat Vets. Buchanan was the host, sitting in for someone else.

    Every single time O’Neill started to answer a question from Buchanan, O’Donnell started yelling “Lies, Lies, It’s all lies!”

    I am not kidding. Most amazing thing I have ever seen on talk TV. O’Donnell is a joke.

    Here’s an idea: let’s pair O’Donnell with Susan Roesgen, another interviewer who spends the entire interview calling the subject names and telling him he’s an idiot.
